Thread: Question on Specials

Ok everyone, a question on special shots...

Does the speed of my rifle make any difference in my "time between shots"? ie.. the time wasted on waiting for HS3 or ConcealShot to recycle. If I have a good speed sliced T-21, can I get in 4 HS3's before getting rushed instead of 3? Or is it always constant?
Thanks for info

Your Rifle speed mod from special abilites determines the rate at which you fire .


Now each special also adds a delay, with conceal shot (0100) expect about a 10 second shot with a 7.0 as t-21 + rifle speed mod + special Speed mod. This starts to speed up at 4-4-4-4 , its at master where things really pick up speed.


Now if you want some speed check out the spray stick, it caps out rather fast in the early stages of rifleman.

Warning shot with a spray stick will help keep single targets at bay long enough for you to kill things.

id agree with the spraystick, but well, it doesnt do enough damage for the mind you pump into it... hell, my spraystick has ham costs as high as my jawa, and the damage is a mere 16-168... i could buy a better scout blaster.


well, at least were getting the assault rifle we've been waiting for... thats gonna be nice

Untill you hit special abilities 3, Your spraystick is your fastest rifle, maybe a godly speed Slice on your E11 or laser might push it closer to the speed cap.Untill that time its your fastest rifle.

I'm a Master BE and 2-2-1-4 CH and I have a question. It seems to me like Knockdown and Dizzy Strike would be a really good combo to have on a pet, but from what I have been able to see, the pet's Knockdown special doesn't knockdown at all against any PVE mobs animals or NPC/Humanoid types. Is this the case? Also, does it work in PvP? I know CH's are virtually worthless in PvP, but if we could at least get KD & DS to stick, it might help a little. I've also been planning out a really nice pet with KD/DS, light armor, 60% Kinetic, and some Energy protection. If KD doesn't work, though, it will give me one less variable to mess with.

go for dizzy strike and crippling strike(posture down) instead. despite what some may say, knockdown doesn't work.
