Comments:
Just about all these options are worse than pistols, the exception being (perhaps) bow/rifle for PvP, and maybe certain setups using more exotic weapons for DD, perhaps in a few patches when it's possible to equip the Envy/Rhat'ata and some other Xan weapons they will become more viable.
Non-pistol endgame weapons
Re: Non-pistol endgame weapons
Depends a bit on what you want. If you're a bored doc looking for pure DD then the Shen Sticks will do more than pistols if you give each an unlimited budget. But if you want more utility to teams then pistols will do close enough damage to make them the better choice.Rulzern wrote: Martial Arts:

Sad but true, Docs used to be viable in nearly anything. Then we were very viable in 4-5 configs. Now it is 3 configs, only one of which is flexible enough for all situations.
