No Dual Pistols for Doms?

[Arnabas]

I'm just wondering if there is a reason why they can't/ shouldn't have DP available to them and if not, is it on the horizon?

Doms generally get a mix of melee and ranged powers in their Assault sets.  Having a gun in both hands makes it awkward to punch people and simply pistol whipping people lacks elegance.  On top of that trying to work in Martial Arts style kicks is already taken by Martial Assault so it wouldn't be creative, or even unique in comparison since Martial Assault already deals the Lethal damage from the throwing stars and presumably ammo swapping wouldn't make your kicks set people on fire.

 

My understanding is that at one point a Handgun/Sword powerset was considered and was even meant to be the main powerset for Spark Blade, a member of W.I.S.D.O.M. who never came to be since the game didn't take off in the Korean markets as hoped.

I would rather Dom’s get a Single Pistol set as opposed to Duel set.

 

Have a single Hand Blaster is used more often in Comics than a duel pistol set anyways and it would look better lockdown mobs with one hand while firing with other. (Theme Wise)

 

This would also work with having the other hand free for melee.

that would be dope and i wonder how that would work

Dual Pistols is a blast set, not an assault set

I am still pissed that martial assault uses friggin' shuriken instead of dual pistols for its range attacks.

Maybe some melee animations from a set like Battle Axe can be turned into pistol whips to make an Assault set?

I dream of Swashbuckling Assault: sword in one hand, pistol in the other.

dom sets generally have 2-3 melee attacks

no one really knows what to do with pistols outside of pistol whipping and pistol whipping from another angle

i guess they can have a point blank shot and use executioners shot animation
