Our correspondent, Klawlegna, keeps reminding us that he has seen *NOTHING* about a 3 second cap for riflemen. However, the rumors persist and refuse to die. So make up your own mind.

Most recent 'rumor', by the way, is somewhat different...
It says that instead of speed being capped, there will be a delay between specials, instead. Yes, 1 second pistol, 2 second carbine, 3 second rifle.
So, you could still do NORMAL attacks every second, but 'spamming specials' would be every 3 seconds.

I also never seen or heard anything form a dev pertaining a 3 second speed nerf. Guessing, it would be a last implementation of publish 7 or publish 8. Still highly doubt it though.

So is there ANY confirmed nerf planned for rifleman? I've read post after post about the "long overdue rifleman nerf" is this b-u-l-l-s-h-i-t just rumor?

It's bulldung alright. We're not overdue for a nerf, most every other class is long-overdue for a fix. Look at where we were a few months ago...

My gut tells me it's going to happen, but thats because I have little faith in the Developers. If it don't my faith will return slowly, if Space Expansion is off the chain my faith will fully be restored.

well why is there other ranged professions besides riflemen, if i have a pistol that has 3.5 speed i should shoot faster then a 5.2 speed rifle, the bottom line is making the most powerful one just as fast as the weakest makes the weakest obsolite. so if you were gone to pvp get a rifle because a pistol or even a carbine are useless because they dont have the same damage as a rifle.

Carbineers Get AOE DIzzy+KD
Pistoleers Get KD Defence+Dodge
Riflemen get Direct Damage
Is this so hard to figure out?

That wouldn't be so bad imo.
