Rifleman Archive

I logged onto the test center, my guy is uber noobie, just to check out the politician skill try, and I looked at the rifleman skill tree and we get huge accuracy modifiers, like at master we get +40 (thats right 40) to rifle accuracy and each box in the Sniping tree is like 10 or more. I was only on for a few mins so I didn't notice anything else.

Schweet!

Now all they have to do is raise damage back to where it was on the T-21, and leave speed alone, and we'll be in Fat City.

damage can be low, but increase in accuracy and maybe decrease (a little) on the meelee defence things, i think that would be nice. conceal shot, whatever ANYONE says is the ultimate NPC killer. makes us some of the best guys in the game @

Actually they are saying a big increase in melee and ranged defense as well. Gettin some love but will probably quit if they put this decay crap in. Losing 20% condition for each death with so many bugs is BS. Fix the game then maybe add some more aggrevation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111

whats the point of all these master bonouses

you dont need XP anymore at that point, so you wont PvE anymore or group.... so its only good for pvp and then BHs and Commandos and CHs wil still own you

Insure, dont quit

Insuring doesn't stop the decay for db and incap. Er, for one of them at least.

Harpoon go dial 1-800-WHAA or go train a another skill to master , if you havnt noticed we have enough points to do that . commandos are about useless unless you let em walk up to within 16m and stand there . with all these ( useless ,as you call em ) bonuses at master there arent to many that make it that close . train up for warning shot if you want to deal with pets or get a knockdown . as for BH i havnt met one that had the points to get bigger pets than i have so i dont see a problem there . as for PVE we mow down faction missions and $$$ missions like nobody else can dream of . our AE's drop entire camps in 3 or 4 shots ..... if you dont see miss miss miss =D . from what i have been reading our T21's are supposed to be some kind of heavy repeater rifle from references in the books . the speed bonus we have is perfect then since we arent sniper type traditional rifleman , that is what bounty hunters are ( among other things ), at least thats what i got out of episode 2 with that changeling . the only thing im dissapointed about is the krayt pistols cost same or less than our t21's and do almost = damage . hopefully we can get krayt t21's with an = bonus in the future . kinda embarassing carrying around a weapon bigger than mytoon that does the same damage as a pea shooter .

all these peeps that havnt made master need to quit crying so much .they want all the benifits with none of the work it took all of us to get there . i didnt start working CH exp till after the big CH nerf and let me tell ya , with master sharpshooter to help it would have takin a long long time , all but the top pets are useless for actually killing mobs .

rock on my fellow rifleman

a little buffage doesnt hurt either =P whats that? master rifleman with 2.6k health and action? muahahahah

More accuracy and defensive bonuses for me and none for those 3 you mention means more hits for me and less for them. They can take other professions to make up for the lack of bonuses, but so can we and we have more skill points to spare. If you're getting continually owned perhaps you should evaluate your tactics and your profession. I know from experience that I am far from crap when fighting those professions you mention.
