Rifleman Archive

Holocron told me i had to do it...at least there's flurry2 and pointblankarea1 to help master this class. Took me about 20 hours to master (the longest by far of any class i've mastered, execpt bounty hunter).

for all u rifleman out there that acutally choose to play this class i'm interested in why?

Headshot (and all specials, really) mind expense is rediculous.

More than half the specials in this class are broken or useless

Damage/second is notthat good

i spend more time in camp (waiting for my mind to regen) with this class than when i was grinding survival 4 (although i will say 30 crates of +33% max dam/+16 mind reduced this time some...)

when u stack this class up against pistoleer or carbiner it's a dog. why? because the specials drain your mind at an incredible pace. after 15 flurryshots2's i stand up, peace, sit and wait 4 minutes for my mind to regen while my friend the carbiner drops a stimC and keeps right on blasting with areaeffect2 (which btw does the same if not more damage/minute with a nice laser carbine/powered-up as flurry2 with any rifle powered-up...i know, i know but i have armor piercing....LOL it's BROKEN)

i won't even get into PVP....

luckly i'm done with it in about an hour....(and i'm sure the die hards will say: glad your gone from the profession)

BRACING FOR THE FLAMES =)

Besus Force(d) Master Rifleman

I don't take your post lightly, insulting theRifleman lol

But the mind costs are very bad.

how do you master this profession in 20 hours

im **edit**ing serious thats BULL**edit**

i dont understand how people do this

what kind of exploit or trick do you use

are you a CH?

do you have a life outside of SWG? (doesnt even matter, 20 hours is 20 hours... you're saying you could do this all spread out?)

i have been playing my rifelman for a month and i'm 2/0/2/1

Try Dantooine HARPOON.

Great expfor Picket missions.

pickets have 10k HAM and one or two hit youand are BAF

i dont get your point

No it's not suicide for a rifleman to take on and kill a picket. I do it every day lol.

Good ones to use if your a novice and not a master is bleed then mind. or even flushing shot running.

ok pickets, like every creature in the game except durnis, run faster than you. So you cant kite them. All you can do is warning shot them, but you can not kill more than 1 this way, maybe 2 if you're using a pistol for warning shots. Then again you can solo any creature in the game this way, as long as it is suceptible to warning shots. Although with a picket if u spam specials while warning shotting it, you will run out of mind before it dies. In the end it will take it a good amount of time to die, in which time you could have killed a bunch of white-con mobs which would have given you more XP in less time.

i'm really tired of the"i'm a novice chef and I solo groups of4 Grauls at a time with my CDEF Rifle" routine..

a rock beetle versus a Picket, right? OK

and ignore that the max level pet a non CH can control will be lowered from 15 to 10 very soon, that means no rock beetles/cowardly guerrecks.... even wrix's and kaadus...
