Any DP guides yet?

I've been looking around the past few days since pre sales went live for any run down on the new Duel Pistols powers and haven't seen any. Probably because it's still so new (and not everyone has pre ordered). One thing I was surprised about is I haven't seen one from the beta. Did DP change that much that it negated any beta guides or have none been written thus far? Just curious cause all lot of the powers in the list seem to look better then what they play thus far (all though I haven't raised any DP'ers to far yet.)

The only ones who have are farmed up.
The set has only been out a few days.
Gonna have to wait for a few months to find a "real" guide to the set. At least.

Are there any guides on resists for DP? Like what badys are weak to what?

Don't think anybody in beta wrote a 'guide' per se, although if you look in the feedback forum you'll see lots of number-crunching if you're looking for data on how the powers work. "Looks better than it plays" is pretty much the DP motto - if anything it gets more noticeable the higher you get (the nuke, in particular).

My personal view on DP is that there are two powers not really worth getting (assuming you are aoe focused), namely the quick single-target shot Pistols and the last PBAOE attack Hail of Bullets. I was iffy on Suppressive Fire until I realized it's a hold when you use special ammo.
As badass as Hail of Bullets looks, I felt like it was missing often and not doing a whole lot of damage even when it did hit. And Pistols, well, it's not so much bad as it is that Dual Wield is better and you only need one of em. If you're going for speed, swap DW for it I guess.
