A-300 Heavy Sonic Needler via Cartel Shop

[ScytheEleven]

I highly, highly doubt that any Dev's will actually see this from BioWare, but I hope that with enough support, they might hear our cry.

 

Upon completion of the Act 1 story quests, Gunslinger's (Smugglers) are given a quest reward option of an A-300 Heavy Sonic Needler. Here is the weapon I'm talking about:

It is a Bind on Pickup item, so you'll never see one on the GTN. Now the problem with that lies in the fact that there is only one of these pistols in the game! So if you're a Gunslinger, you will never get to dual-wield these beauties.

 

There was talk that the HEROIC Mandalorian Terror quests rewards another one, but this has been proven FALSE since after Beta they replaced it with a moddable helmet reward.

 

BioWare, if you were to add this weapon to the Cartel Shop, I can pretty much guarantee you that it would be one of your top sellers. It's simple too, as you don't have to create a new item model, re-skin it, or anything...you could even leave it as Bind on Pickup...we don't care, just please add this weapon to the shop.

Sadly, this is not true. The ones from the Cartel Packs have a scope and a bottom rail; the A-300 has neither, thus gives it a much more sleek, true magnum look.

 

For a long time now, we've (Gunslingers) been told to match the A-300 with a model of the pistol that you're describing (i.e. Black Nebula, Two-Finger's Revenge). It'd be really great to just have another A-300 Heavy Sonic Needler.

 

Here is an image of the A-300 Heavy Sonic Needler:

And here is one of Two-Finger's Revenge (same model as many of the end-game "revolvers", as well as the Black Nebula from the Cartel Packs):

Ya have it sitting in my cargo waiting for a twin to show up somewhere, been sitting there for a year, definately want a pair. Would rather just have one without the stupid holo crosshair thing they stick on the Cartel pistols though.

This would definitely sell, the popularity of the A-300 still astounds me.

 

Also, this would have been better posted in Suggestions.

I actually remade my smuggler from a lvl 50 gunslinger to scoundrel just so I didn't need to try and get a matching set of A-300. Well that and I realized, I like the single blaster look more....well that and I realized I didn't need to use stealth..also the scattergun neither. So now I have an awesome lvl 50 single wielding A-300 heavy sonic needler scoundrel!

Thanks for the support guys, I went ahead and re-posted this in the Suggestions Box!
