Can Pistoleer cut it?

I have no interest in PvP, finding pleasure in the game from the guild
hunts and general leveling. I am working on mastering Commando and
enjoy the heavy weapons, and love to do lairs like Geo lab. My
question is, if I worked towards master Pistoleer when I was done
Comando, would I still have the punch to go toe to toe with the bigger
nasties in the game? Or has the flamethrower spoiled me. Thanks guys.

We are underpowered, have mostly broken specials, and have no real speed
advantage, so I would say no until the Combat Rebalance.

I think flamethrower has spoiled you. Pistoleers main advantages are
speed and accuracy, which every profession gets at master. The specials
are mostly broken, most of them hit random pools, and are weak compared
to other weapons. As a pistoleer, you get an AP1 acid pistol, AP1
energy pistol (with autobleed), AP0 heat and AP0 stun. Pistol whip is
kind of cool though

If you are enjoying commando, I would suggest you stick with it until
you get bored. Pistoleer does no damage when compared to a
flamethrower.
