I wanna jump into the air whilst firing my guns!!! Don't ask me how it'd work, I dunno, I just want to do it.

Hint: Press space bar and go forward, while in air activate an attack.
Yay!

You only wish you were this epic.

For a Tier 9? I'd rather I put a pistol away, adopted a modified Weaver stance, braced the gun in both hands, and picked off every enemy in a wide cone with one deliberate and well-placed shot apiece.
Call it 'Get Serious'.

This is only a taste of what is coming with Going Rogue. I think there will be plenty of other new powersets released. I personally think that they will make a Pistols Secondary where we will find all our Gun Fu and status effect options. Knee Cap would be perfect for the T1 power.

hello blaster forum. I wanted to drop some things in here. how about a melee stun, pistol whip?
2. um, (looking at veats) would the devs be crazy enough to add more than pistols into the set? i already see some one has brought up re-hashing full auto. how about something new that would stretch the pistol set into a pistol theme?
3. and final. (looking at dual blades' combos) pistol combos? anyone? ok, how about we make it cool and has a draw back, like "combo dmg bonus/reload time?" so at the end of the combo you can't attack for 3 secs as if you are reloading ur gun, but would only take effect if you do the huge combo. OOH! i got an another idea no one will like, have the combo dmg bonus be based on you ACC and/or +to-hit. Call it headshot bonus or something. This would tackle lack of secondary... bah, sounds over powered already, nevermind.
peace.

I like this idea, gives us something new to try out, and would be very very cool to have all the combos as a blaster... like a Mega combo that will stun them, and then the final attack would be you run in the middile of the mob and take them out dantie style!

heck ya! please, no flavor bullets. Blaster combos, yay! Ice/magic bullets, nay!
I wore two smith and wesson 1911's while working PMCs a few years ago. Ever since I saw that going rogue vid I've had this idea.
As a final nuke, character takes his right pistol, takes careful aim and fires, rolls to a kneeling position, and fires the second one, then does a backflip and while in midair cuts loose with the rest of the magazines before hitting the ground.
That of course being first two shots doing high damage to primary target, and the followups being an AOE cone, I don't know if thats possible with the architecture of this game, but if it is that would effing rock.
That is all.
<QR>
I think that whatever the outcome of the set is, the devs need to take the obvious into consideration... they need to remember that this is an oft requested, long desired set by the community (at least the blaster/corruptor subset of the community). With the previews of Going Rogue being nothing short of great, and now the announcement that dual pistols will also be included with it, they need to make sure the set is nothing short of complete awesome. I really feel that this is one of those particular sets that they really have to deliver on. If they simply repackage the existing Thugs MM powers with some random new ones, it would be a complete disappointment.
I know this is kinda stating the obvious, but I thought it needed to be said.
And yes, the day GR is released, I will be at home gleefully rolling a new DP/something Blaster without a second thought.

This is what I'd like the Tier 9 to be personally:
+30% Defense Buff
-90% Range Debuff
Total invincibility for a while, but you have to run into melee to attack. A PBAoE bullet dance wouldn't be a bad runner up, but I'd prefer something a little more unique.
I just want the set to make Scrappers cry. I'm tired of hearing all the complaints that Dual Pistols should be a melee set.

AMEN!! This is why I want it to be a good ranged bit. Put the blapper melee crap in the secondary, and make the primary a ranged ST KILLER!

I for one think the set is going to be a bit like AR in the sence that it has almost no mezes of any kind. I really dont see any holds or an immob in the dual pistol set. Stun possibly. i would love to just pistol whip someone, but it would have to be a major stun if it is a blaster primary power that requires you to go melee to use.
Someone mentioned earlier they would like to see a "headshot bonus" type thing where there is a chance to do even more damage. Full Auto has this effect called "Lucky Shot" it is a 10% chance to do a lot of damage on the final tick of the DoT.
i expect this set to be really fun to play and fun to watch, and i already have a name saved for my first dual pistol blaster!

Here's an idea... for the secondary effect, have many of the attacks give a small, short-duration defense buff. The faster you shoot, the harder to hit you are...
I agree that some status effects could be hard to justify (like Holds), but I can see a Stun. Head Shot: You shoot your opponent in the head (or equivalent vital location), dealing high Lethal damage and Stunning them for a short time.

How about for a hold, you shoot both hands of the target? I'm not sure about how to explain them not running around...Maybe shoot them in the feet? Or 'knee cap' them, like for the proposed immobilize...Either way, shooting the hands of the target would work thematically for most users, I think.
Or a Web Envelope Bullet...
...What?

As if that wouldn't be completely overpowered in the hands of an AT that is supposed to specialize in straight damage? Why no give them access to Parry/DA as well?

Better idea, go outside the box and give the set a Fear power, caused by the steely-eyed glare of your gunslinger.

The one that hasn't been posted in for almost two weeks?
I think a snipe power is possible. Have the blaster take out a single pistol, aim at the target, rotate his head and neck in a circle before firing: ala Danny Glover in the Lethal Weapon series.

If they do that I'll get kicked from every team I'm on cause they'll all get tired of me saying "It's just been revoked!" after every snipe haha.
Nuke I want something like what Deadpool does on the Marvel Ultimate Alliance game..
I also want a secondary that compliments.. I do not want to just have a dual pistol/energy blaster//
The hard things I can do--- The impossible just take a little bit longer.
If numbers are so much more important than a teammate who is fun to play with, forget about the game altogether and go play with a calculator instead. -Claws and Effect-

The Tier 9 should be a massive single target attack - 60 second recharge extreme dot damage + an equal sized unresistable critical and a chance for another equal sized unresistable critical. You should be able to one shot an even con boss. The sound effect should be an entire clip being emptied in rapid succession into the target. It should involve one gun only aimed carefully at eye level.

It's funny that you mention that as "thinking outside the box," because I've seen that suggested for the set several times in various other threads, but I haven't seen my suggested power.
Not saying mine is better than yours, I'm just saying that it's funny.

I think that whatever they do with a Dual Pistols set they need to be sure that they pay homage to some of the more well known examples of pistol packing heroes like Jack Beauregard, Trinity (Terence Hill not Carrie-Ann Moss), Harry Callahan and John Preston.
That way there is something for everyone.
