Ok today, while fighting in Anchorhead, I missed a rifleman 8 TIMES IN A ROW WITH FLAME SINGLE 2!! What the hell is that??? I'd shoot two or three, get killed of course, run out of facility, and shoot, and miss. So, after 8 misses, I just quit. Someone explain to me how a master commando misses from 15m away 8 times in a row. This whole proffession is bs.

before you drop it, go find another master rifleman and INTIMIDATE him first. you will torch his shiny arse every single shot.

It has to do with Ranged Defense...Do you know what the Rifleman's other professions might be? With enough Ranged Defense (+72 at the master rifleman level alone), our attacks will miss greatly...

Makes you feel pretty invincible huh... And Hecka overpowered right...

The bright side (although personally this kicks my butt) is that with the next patch, defenses will no longer stack across professions...so that rifleman will only have rifleman defenses when he has his rifle equiped, so you might have a slightly better chance of hitting him...

Now if TH would just notice how things really are...this is one of my main reasons for pushing him to do tests vs other professions rather then just basing his findings on a Commando Vs. Commando fight...

Heh, you can at least consider it a moral victory that you were able to live long enough to fire 8 FlameShots.

uh... if the rifleman killed you from far away then what are you crying about?

and you said you MISSED your flamespecial, so you DID get to 16m of him. News for you: intimidate (and warcry) work out to 30m. youapply these effects on themas you close in.

as garvin said, its all to do with the ranged defenses. intimidate cuts them in half. only 2 classes have defenses vs intimidate, and its a very low defense at that. with just an undershirt of +17 warcy/intimidate it will stick to them almost every time.

True. He was most likely a ranged defense stacker. I ran into the same type of player last week and missed everytime. Frustrating, yes. Worth quitting over, no. I started working on a melee compliment prof later that day.

You guys should listen to Tacwraith, heh. I'm currently using his old template of Master Commando, Rifleman 4.3.0.4, TKA 4.0.0.4 and it's awesome. Get an undershirt and bandolier with warcry/intimidate bonuses and they land easily. Love it when I hit someone with warcry/intimidate, get a flame dot on them, burst run away and hit them with both mind bleeds then start headshotting them. Pretty effective when you pull it off. They help you kill their mind by trying to keep up with healing that flame dot.

I can laugh at it now, but I was Master Commando for less than 12 hours. I was so proud to be MC, I absolutely had to go on a killing rampage. 1st nest of Enraged Rancor I KILLED MYSELF w/ a Thermal detonator. Didn't even get out of the cloning center before considering what I was going to drop Commando for. lol
