Lightning Rifle is the best energy rifle in the game.......

Depends what you are using it for. Personally out of thosetwo weaponsit's the Trandoshan because it has a higher min damage - and if you fight high level mob min damage is the most important stat.

On the other hand the lightning has a lower SAC. So it really depends what you need it for. I'd go with both .

I thought it dude said max damage?????

Dam I need glasses.............. OF BEER!

No, actually min damage is the number that is calc'd to keep your damage max in each hit.. and it is the number that is used to calc the acc bonus for having mor accuracy than the targets defence number. The higher the Min damage, the better damage you will get.

Well the SAC alone makes that gun a winner in my book Especially in Long Drawn out Master Defender/4-0-0-0 Healer battles

I'd have to go with the Krayted Hvy.Lightning Rifle (provided you have the MBH also).

Speed is a tiny bit better, but not noticeable for a full combat template.

Damage lower than the T.Hunting Rifle, but Elemental Damage evens it out more.

DPS? I disregard DPS.

Accuracy Bonus: No brainer, the Hvy.Lightning Rifle wins this match. More Accuracy is good, especially considering MBH-based templates don't yield the highest accuracies compared to certain ranged templates.

SAC? Hvy.Lightning Rifle wins, hands down.

Personally, I would go with the Hvy.Lightning Rifle if you're a MBH / Rifleman.

In my opinion currently the heavy lightning rifle is the best rifle type..., it shouldn't be as such, seeing as it is a bounty-hunter weapon after all.., and even Advanced laser rifles are better then T21's...

The trandoshan rifle is a very good one, certanly, currently above both laser rifle and t21.., still it always comes out to the weaponsmith who makes them, and the tissues beeing used; but if both, trandoshan rifle and heavy lightning rifle hit they're caps on sac & damage, then the heavy lightning rifle will be superior simply due to the elemental damage bonus it gives..

Henceforth, on your two rifles, the heavy ligthing rifle is currently superior.

Still, I wished the developers introduced a whorty rifle for master rifleman only, or at least upgrade the t21 back to a more apropriate status.., after all, it currently requires master to use it, and its by far not as good as it was in the past..., plus.., it always looked so damn cool
