Thread: SWGRanger Poll: What is your Primary Weapon Choice?
Rifle
I've tried everything except pikeman and settled on Rifle as the best fitting my playstyle. Not that it matters one whit anymore but there ya go.
Half of my life as a Ranger is traps. I love them and am always throwing them left and right. I am currently working up Pistols because the range was great for using traps.... but if Rifles are as good as you say... do you even use traps?
If I had to give up my traps to use Rifles, forget it. But if there is a tactic that can utilize BOTH... let me know what it is.
Thanks.
Rifles first choice. Damage, distance, Cover and Conceal make it so much more efficient. (AmeliaRose/Naritus)
I have a TKM/Ranger, it can be done, but having to get 6m from the target is a royal pain, having little damage ability is a pain. Give me back the pre CU TKM power and moves, rofl, and TKM can be a great hunter/fighter character. (Atheren/Bria)
Carbines mostly, now, I like the scatter shot on hunts when grouped, lots less tabing about and get a piece of everything. I also like knocking down targets, that's handy too
Rifles when I want to go for range, I was doing conceal shot a lot when I was a Master Rifleman, I really liked that.
Pistols just for the heck of it (first thing I gave up from the Master Marksman tree)
Start 65m out, take cover. 2 conceal shots, 1 sniper shot, 1 knee-cap while he closes. Toss the p-dart and move outta melee range to at least 60m. Then alternate headshot and stun shot until it falls, or repeat with p-dart and move as needed.
