Forgot to include the DC15, it may be lacking the range (60 meters ), but the SAC is 85 out of the box, with a nice damage slice, it can be devastating.

cap on rifle damage is 1184 (i think 1183 if its obtained by slices.) i'd recommend a krayted laser rifle...get the SAC capped first. cap on SAC is 82...and get a SAC pup to bring it to under 60. you'll want good damage tissues...over 100 at least.

Change your template to:

MRM/MBH/Pistols xxx3 Medic xx2x

You will love it and it will take all of 20 minutes to do.

Oh what about a heavy lightning rifle? I was thinking of getting one of those made with a capped damage and SAC?

Max damage and SAC (special action cost) are most important. Do not pay attention to DPS or Modified DPS

As far as rifles go, anything about 1040 is good 1100 is ideal, with a SAC lower than 90, ideally lower than 85. These rifles can include: Trandoshan Hunting Rifle, T-21's (rare at those stats and expensive), or Advanced Laser Rifles (believe it or not!)

I would also recommond a nice High Capacity Scatter Pistol with damage ideally above 950 and a SAC around 85 or lower.

How do u get that rifle, nercosis loot?

heavy lighting rifle ( the old LLC as an advanced version ) ftw!! the wep has a greater potential as the advanced laser rilfe ( got told so from the WS who made mine ) and is typical BH style, i really like it... unmoded stats on mine are around

speed 2.5

dmg 475-1124

acc bonus 21

dps 270

SAC 83

sliced but unpuped

the important things are low SAC and high dmg ( minimum for the defender Jedi and max for all others ), also an accuracy bonus is ever fine..... dps isnt that important when ur MBH combined with another ranged master, but ull find situations when ull wish ur wep would be a tick faster

the above mentioned rifle was crafted with 168er tissues by a very good WS, so get out and hunt some krayts ( also tissues with 80+ dmg give very good weapons in the hand of a good crafter ) and find a friendly WS who does good custom work ( if u play on Farstar then contact Nalai, shes the best )

oh, forgot, the heavy lighting rifle also has an add of 40 elemental dmg ( electricity ) and 33% wound ( tho this isnt that important anymore )

"I would also recommond a nice High Capacity Scatter Pistol with damage ideally above 950 and a SAC around 85 or lower. "

I use one very close to that, 942 max and 85 SAC with a SAC reduction pup, and the modified speed is 1.23, the sweet spot and I shoot VERY fast and quite hard, hit a paddy today for 990-1K average. I also have a 1.14 mod speed 833 72 SAC scatter I swear by.

Want a good rifle? its a lot of work. Forget anything about DPS, it doesnt exist and means nothing. Your gonna have to kill krayts.. a lot of them. Buy a nice T21 with a little over 1k dmg or at least close to it, and sac pup it for the krayts. If you do that they actually go down quicker due to sac caps on rifles being so damn high and you never having any action if the latter is true. Keep in mind this is just forlonjevity, you will do on average about350dmg less with a sac pup on but you will also be able to maximize that speed with rifles MRMgives you. So anyways.. kill a few thousand krayts, get some 175+ tissues at LEAST. 4 for an adv lazer rifle and 6 for a T-21. The adv lazer has a scope option (doesnt matter..your gonna have over 300 accuracy, +17 on the gun is a drop in the bucket) and can get lower speeds (also deosnt really matter due to attack caps on rifles)the kickertho is it has way lower minimum damage. Idealy if your a MRM your gonna want a T21 because that higher min dmg is a good thing come snipershot time.So once you have either hunted umpteen billion krayts and got those drops, or you just bought them (probably a smarter idea considdering time expenderature) you need a GOOD weaponsmith (MWS with a +25/+25 suit) who knows what they are doing. Also look for a damn fine artisan who can make you some+34%dmg +5%speed pups, or comperable quality on your preferred stat.Last of all, you need an ADK.Expensive rifle huh, ONLY the best will do and let noone tell you otherwise. Vendor bought carbines are find for popping paddies but when it comes to full temps get serious.
