--- Quote from: C4Cypher on October 17, 2010, 15:54 ---'ve got a question concerning the Juggler switch trick.  You have an equipped weapon and a prepared weapon, as well as your pack.  Juggler makes swapping from prepared instant. Swapping from pack to equipped takes 1 sec.  Dropping from pack takes 0.5 sec.  I have no idea how one might drop from prepared or equipped, without somehow eating the 1 sec time it takes to swap out with the pack.

Pressing number keys to switch weapons with juggler is also instant. Say you have a pistol in your hands, and a shotgun 'prepared', you can press 4, and with juggler, without any time passing, you will now have a combat shotgun in your hands and still have a shotgun prepared.
Note that, if you instead pressed '3', it would just act the same as the 'swap weapons' key.
A juggler can, thus, fire a shotgun, switch to a prepared shotgun, fire, switch to a super shotgun, fire, switch to a combat shotgun, and fire - 4 shotgun blasts with zero time in-between firing.

This is pretty much what I was alluding to in my previous post. Like I said, I'm gonna try and get a successful nightmare win with it.

C4Cypher:
I'm having a lot of fun playing around with single pistol builds, and thanks for the advice about juggler.  Getting to both mid/late Hell in both E and M. Hoping to throw Wiz in the mix, see how it changes things,  starting to get some amazing damage per round ratios.

I'm curious about your build ... will wait for the mortem. Considering a pistol/vamp ... but having a hard time prioritizing build order in a way that works with the scaling of the levels. The fact that I have no clue as to how to play melee doesn't help, but it should be fun to play with.  I should probably learn to play normal melee builds before I experiment with it.
