OK, I have an acid rifle. I am Commando 3/3/4/2. I like the acid rifle, but it seems every creature I come across has like 60-90% defense against acid. Then when I find someone/thing which isn't fully defensable against it, I use Acid Shot 1, and about 60% of them miss...

Is it me, or is there an issue with this?

First off acid rifle sucks (imo). It needs a DoT (again i think). Also you are only in the 2nd tier so you still have a lot of accuracy left to gain from the last 2 tiers. I personally don't use it ever, can't understand why it would have higher leveling xp than FT but maybe it was originally designed to better. Just thanking god it takes heavy weapon xp instead of an acid rifle xp.

I USED TO take Defense Stacker 2....do you?

There is a big issue with the HAR (heavy acid rifle). If you look in your skill mods, you will see 2 listings for HAR speed and accuarcy. There is a bugthat causes the mods that you get as you go up the HAR tree to not stack with the mods you get as a novice, and as a result you dont get any better with it.

You should get a medal for even attempting to fight with that piece of junk. I've killed thousands of creatures over the previous months. I've killed 2 with the acid rifle. Thank god for pet tanks.

you actually kill faster with the non-cert beam rifle hitting for 10 pnts of damage a shot than with the HAR missing every 800 pnt damage shot.

'But why is Fantasia dying then?'
'Because people have begun to loose their hopes and forget their dreams. So the nothing grows stronger. It's the emptiness that's left. It's like a despair, destroying this world. And I have been trying to help it.'

I have found, though, that at about 45m if you kneel and use the acid rifle with power shot "overcharge shot 2" it does really good damage, but slow as hell...lol.

Even against 100% heat resistant mobs...the flamer is a much better choice. Flamer dot kills the mob faster then the useless acid rifle.
