Hhmm... nothing happens -.-
Seriously, MA.
I don't really care that it's not agent's "primary" weapon skill, it's more fun. You can buff it way way more than rifle anyway. (Calced about 2050ish possible @ lvl 100)
At 85-90 my agent was getting 4.5k crits (on mobs, not punching bag) from MA combined attack using Lux armor.

Agents are way too OP...
95% of Agents I meet are just noobs/idiots who choose to play the most OP and easiest profession!
They are hardly usefull in pvm teams and they only care about No. of pvp kills/pvp rank!
What is even more pathetic is that majority of the time inside BS they group and team 2-4 sneaking morons waiting for somebody to start capping, only to use their alpha attack ...

It's worth mentioning I haven't PVP'ed on mine, and probably never will. I'd expect MA agent to be complete crap in PVP tho.
Mine about 170 at the moment, but I plan to toss on the viral force blades when I can get him in there to gather the parts. It's a weird build, but for PVM the damage is great and its a bit of a head turner. I was told by one guy... "im so confused. your a tiny atrox trader, with mp pets, and ma weps. what the actual **ckery? well good luck...youve officially tripped me out."
Proud moment, right there.

Years ago I saw an agent in MA. and I felt so bad for him, he was running around in FP MA, and was so squishy.. this was in an LE mission... and I PM'd him and asked what he was doing and he said someone told him MA agent was a good DPS build.
I didn't know what to do, but I was 100% sure someone was seriously pulling his leg and somehow duped him into thinking that it was a good build. I mean, this guy was getting smacked around: too much aggro in melee range, no defence perks or offense perks to get a fast kill when needed or defend vs a harder hitting mob and crap all heals.
I couldn't understand what he was doing. Straight fist, too. So I told him someone was pulling his leg and he'd been tricked, because what he was doing wasn't working, AT ALL.
If I were going to do a different style agent, I'd probably go Onehander+missile raid max crit/add damage setup and at least have the benefit of high damage AS's when they crit, and solid crit damage and many opportunities for procs.
Ya, I get the 4k MA crits ... but honestly, so much of what an agent depends on is not being in the middle of the fight, so at least he can use trnq and have his team (or him) kill the mob by the time it closes the gap.
But that's just me. And the dude really wasn't playing MA agent properly. If I'd seen him in slayerdroid form and FP'd trader... ya I could see it if he was thumping out big crits, but this dude was miles away from operational.
Obviously, I did a lot of Ely hecks to level, and it was never a problem soloing. Even having 2 adds, which can happen from time to time doing Ely hecks wasn't an issue.
Typically, I'd be using Trader mode, as it's the all around best. You get a great Evades buff, Nano drain, Health drain, Calm that lands decently well in SL, and of course Nanite drains. Unfortunately, Slayerdroid Transference is still a 1 hour buff, so sometimes I'd have to swap back to Engineer. Even that has its advantages with the Blind though.
I've got AAD in all three slots, but not much help to evades in armor or weps. Even still, he's evasive enough to solo everything within reason at his level. If I run into trouble, there'e the "agent escape nanos" which give enough of an AAD boost to get things sorted out usually.
The obvious downside is, Agent symbs don't do much good to support MA, and perks are pretty useless also. That's the biggest problem I see with this build.
I was thinking it would be pretty cool to put a D Shark on eventually, but without access to any Full Auto buffs I don't see any way to get enough, even as Atrox.

OK.. back to main.
what i was trying to say was NOT "FC, pls give us agents a bigger and better and more fabulous gun", it was more "FC, pls give us another weapon-option for the primary-skill".
so still bump for that!
and again, BUMP
Not to derail the thread, but i'd love to see a tier 4 armor set come out before a new weapon. Our damage is insane in PvP and PvM endgame already :P
For me I'd like to see the old SL weapons modified, Joy of the Hunt/Race the turnspirit weapon as well.

Yeah it could be something like that.
Stat wise it would be great, maybe not completely endgame, but something newer players could farm for rather easily, and understand.
But i would definitely like some upgrade on the visuals too, when it became tier 4.
I mean, do anybody use any of the current for social? - Except maybe MPs
