Status affects such as stun and pacify are different than Dazed, Staggered, etc. There's passive abilities that grant buffs to stun and pacify duration, but nothing to buff the duration of combat states such as dazed, staggered, etc. Don't ask me why, but there isn't. That'd be a good idea, though. :/

As a Level 36 Gunslinger, Pistol slide does like ~300 pts to Unlimit Reactors.  All my other specials do ~100.  When I load Kung Fu master, Machine gun fist and Misdirect Punch both do ~200 and Piston Kicks do ~400 to the Unlimit Reactors. 

Why is Gunslinger so whimpy?  I find myself ignoring the other specials, just letting grab attacks (~90 pts damage) land until I get an Off balance on the reactor and then hitting them with a pistol slide.  Burns up a lot of health pills and just doesn't work if I'm fighting more than two at a time.  [Whose idea was it to have that mission where you fight 5 at one time?  Grrrrr.]

Also, do you all keep up Hyper-Dodge or Hyper-Block when interlocked with one Reactor and being shot at by a second?  I've been using Dodge.

Facts? Opinions?  Personal experiences?  Ugly graffitti sprayed on my hovercraft?  Thanks in advance for any and all.

It's very different attacking NPC's than dueling or PVPing.
I think that pistol whip does great dmg and you only have to daze the oponent before.
The other duelist specials leave him powerless or stunned, but dual pistol execution.

I tend to shy away from duelist, because from my experience, it's the buggiest tree out there. Dual Pistol Execution LOVES to suck up IS and do absolutely nothing afterwards.

Well what he could do is load up a gunslinger/rifleman tree... Heck at level 45 I can load also most of the sniper tree as well... and i have no complaint about IS cause I have plenty of 20 IS coster's which isnt that bad..

Determination helps to cause stagger more frequently.
