So, here’s some help for other professions jumping in here to express their thoughts about those two skills; since, with all due respect, most of you seem to have no idea what they actually do.

Pistol Whip
Pistol-whip your foe, stunning them, then slash repeatedly with your sword.
Damage (9x): 1,026
Stun: ½ s
Range: 130

Heartseeker
Leap and strike your foe. The less health your target has, the more damage you cause.
100%-50%: 336
50%-25%: 504
25%-0%: 672
Combo Finisher: Leap
Range: 450

I just wanted to help things elaborate faster, seeing it’s only Thief section of forum being swarmed by other professions and lots’o whining.

And to clarify because I just know someone is going to lash out in confusion: “Damage (9x): 1,026” means it does 1,026 damage spread out over the course of 9 attacks, not that it does 1,026 damage 9 times.

It’s also worth noting that without haste, the stun is completely over by the time it starts doing the bulk of the 1,026 damage. With haste, it does about 2/5 of the damage during the stun.

Sorry for the double post, it’s not letting me edit again. I wanted to add that pistol whip has about a 1-second cast time before the stun even goes off, which is, I believe, about 1/2 second with haste. These numbers may not be entirely accurate but they should be close.

Also, while the damage is AoE, the stun is not.
