Yo I am a Master Rifleman/Commando. With the 2.5x damage you guys finally see how Riflemens cant do jack squat agains monsters. Since I am both a command and a rifleman I feel the burn, so sorry to say that SOE needs to fix things.

No we understood your pain from the beginning. We had to master marksman which means we had to use a rifle at one point.

At least rifleman got a perk with last patch.

A master dancer/musician can buff you for two hours by doubling your mind stats.

Throw in some spice and life must be a little better for rifleman these days.

not to mention you guys werent broken for two months....then finally got the lp fixed..then had to wait till our weapon damaged were fixed...which we had to rebuy everything anyways....


how can you possibily say we finally understand pain that riflemen are going through? not to mention the 2.5X dmg modifier is from melee which doesnt make sense since we need master unarmed, and our specials are 16 m


your specials are 64 m, and you dont need unarmed either

I hate to say this but ummm riflemen for some reason think we have the same disadvantage they do. We dont and I will list this reasons.



1) Our specials have to be used within 16 meters.


2) Riflemen are extremly effective at 58-62 meters from targer.


3) Our accuracy when not using specials is bad not as horrible as some think but bad enough.


4) Rifelmen miss sometimes its true but not nearly as much as we do.


5) Rifelmen can do a mind shot from a distance of 65 meters. So you can cap off 2 shots before someone can run to you. The switch weapons to take away the 2.5x while they bleed to death.


6) Our speicals has to be within 16 meters and our accuracy at 16 meters isnt any better than just shooting from any distance. We have to wait up too 16 secs for our special to cool down then we can change weapons and remove the 2.5x mod.



Now for things we have in common.


1) Creature warping ... so even if we are at maximun distance we have a chance to have a kreetle on top of us. This also goes for CH and Non CH pets they warp also.


2) shooting while moving greatly reduces our accuracy to the laughable point. Even though I have been lucky enough to cap off a flame 2 while being chased. Of course that waswith a doctor buff that gave me 3k ham.


Well thats it I cant think of anything else we have in common.



I do want to say I have thought and still do think that the 2.5x melee damage is just ridiculous for any proffession. It is even more so with ours because we have to level to 4 in unarmed combat.

What I am trying to say is that SOE, is a bonehead. I leveled up Rifleman first and anytime I tried to kill a 9k HAM mob it would virtually knock my ass out with the 2.5 modifier. When I got commando and I was using FT's I was like wow this is awesome ownage without the 2.5 mod. But ever since they mod this **edit** I am a little scared to use my FT unless I know I can 1 shot a mob after I have weakened it from long range. I was also just talking about the melee modifier nothing else, cause I think everything else is even.
