Unfortunately, I think we had the gazillionth one last month. :\
Although I'd be one of the peeps in favour of them. *runs*

Stuff
Like CD said, it's one of the most suggested ideas (especially in more recent times/after Thugs Masterminds came out) but it's certainly one of the most wanted
Tis expected to have a combo system ala Dual Blades or have several controls/debuffs and many DoTs.

is this officially the most asked for powerset yet or what?
@craggy see me on Union for TFs, SFs (please!) or just some good ol fashioned teaming.
Dual Pistols, Clown MMs, staff Scrappers, Claws Brutes, Street Fighting, all the most asked for powersets I think.

I figured it might've as I'm clearly not that original I did have a look through the suggestions though and couldn't find it. Thanks for the feedback though.
This is probably a good time to get another 'most asked for' power out of my system though. Anyone for permanent rocket packs as opposed to regular flying?
It would make sense for cyborgs/tech heroes and villains, and would compliment the rocket boots nicely...

Plant like a gentleman.
Don't anyone realize that dual pistols will be a 'gimp' powerset? It will look cool ofcourse. But it will have the same flaw the AR got. It will do the most easily resisted damage type.
As an AR blaster myself I can strongly advise against that. Even though I would immediately roll up one if they do come in play.
But I think that most people would be very dissapointed.
I've always thought that AR should do untyped damage to represent the fact that you could switch ammo types to do the most damage to your target.
Anyway, YES! Dual Pistols please, I've got a concept waiting for it already.
Dual pestles?

@craggy see me on Union for TFs, SFs (please!) or just some good ol fashioned teaming.
I've been thinking quite a few ideas for the power names...
1: Pistol Shot
2: Dual Pistol Shot
3: Empty Clips
4: Immobilization Bullets
5: Refill Ammo
6: Dual Pistol Rage
7: Precise Bullet
8: Crippling Bullet
9: Bulletfest
I'll leave what the powers actually do to someone else.
Just rip some of the powers from them goddamned gunslingers. THEN try calling it gimped

QFT. Gunslingers are one of the most annoying enemies in the game. Stupid Bruiser, SMASH MORE!
EDIT: Oh, and I forgot; I fully support both suggestions!
Ah. I thought the last couple of days were quiet. Must be the weekend.

Ok if those pistols are similar to those malta boys......
Them gunslingers are almost as irritating as Sappers or Paragon Protectors in Uber mode.
Dual [censored] tolls?
Now they're taxing our basic bodily functions?! This cannot stand, I say!

A quick mock-up of a Dual Pistols set;
Pistols
Dual Wield
Empty Clips
Incendiary Round (Dual Wield with moderate fire DoT afterwards, 2x recharge)
Impossible Shot (ST snipe, superior damage, half interrupt time than normal snipes)
Reload (Aim with a 30 second recharge, 1.5 second interrupt)
Cover Fire (180 degree cone, moderate DoT, foe -tohit(7% unenhanced))
Cripple (ST -speed(20 seconds, -40%), moderate DoT, 30% chance for immob(15 seconds, enhancable))
Eat Lead (PBAoE extreme damage, 5 tick DoT over 6 second animation, during animation player defence is buffed by 30%(unenhancable) and resistance by 50%(unenhancable), 60 second recharge)
Main idea of the set being quick recharging attacks, lots of DoT and soft control, like a cross between Archery and Claws.

This is an idea that has probably been floated many times before but I figured I'd give it a shot anyhow; would there be any possibility of allowing Blasters to select dual pistols as their chosen weapons?
I freely admit this is a selfish request as I'd like to make some form of 'gunslinger' blaster that has no inherent powers but has excellent marksmanship coupled with gadgets of some description
To that end, I'd also like to suggest body armour/tactical vests as chest detail options - again so players can create more functional, less 'super' characters.
