I agree with the original poster and add my support to the motion to restore Harpoon Shot, at least as an option. The one person who posted in disagreement with the rest of the thread is seeing only one of the benefits of Harpoon Shot. As a Dirty Fighting Scoundrel, I appreciated Corso pulling enemies towards me if I was trying to start combat from a distance AND I appreciated him pulling enemies away from me to help lessen my number of opponents if I ran into the mob. Not only that, but Corso is no longer a ranged tank if he runs into melee. We have lost multiple levels of functionality now. I have not complained or even been particularly displeased with any other aspect of this game. Eliminating Harpoon Shot, however, is extremely frustrating. I have disabled Illegal Jet Pack, but that is only halfway to fixing the problem. The other half, I cannot do myself. BioWare, please bring back the Harpoon Shot for Corso Riggs.

Thank you all for the Corso love! I was starting to think I was alone in my appreciation. And it's nice to know I'm not the only one that wants to play through the story again with a second character (though to be fair I legitimately want to try gunslinger now that I've been scoundreling). I'm only lvl 23 so I haven't even gotten to look for Rona yet, but I'm looking forward to many missions with my in-game boytoy. From what I've read, Bowdaar is kinda squishy, and I already know Risha drives me up a wall (presumptuous b****), so it'll probably be Corso all the way. BTW every time I'm in space battle and he says "I don't like our odds, captain" it makes me yell "NEVER TELL ME THE ODDS!" And then my RL husband cracks up.

Honestly, I'm not fond of Back Blast either, because I'm not good at moving around in-game, so I very rarely get it off properly. My husband keeps telling me "You really need to use Back Blast, it's your best power and that's what you're supposed to use," but know what I tell him? I have a whole set of powers to use, so I can pick which ones I prefer to use. If it takes me longer to kill a mob because I'm doing less damage per attack, that's my problem.
