Thread: Did the Rifle get fixed?!?

So I was playing this morning going out hunting rebels as usual. I found a huge rebel camp with two majors, I killed them both in one HS3, 3750 damage on one of them. I was shocked. I found some cupas I fired without styles and hit consistantly for like 870 damage. The rifle I was using is a laser rifle, 30-580 damage sliced with max damage powerups. My friend a carbineer also noticed a large amount of damage. Did they fix the rifles overall? Is there a reason why my 30-580 rifle was consistantly hitting better than any pre-nerf T21 I've heard of?


Anybody else noticing this?

Ive noticed a difference tonight as well.


Imlanding about 85-90% of my aimed, prone, T21, mindshot 1 & 2's (from 60-70m), even though Im only at 1-0-0-1.


Two weeks ago when I was at 4-2-2-1 I wasn'tachieving this accuracy.



Secondly, I don't know if this is a bug, but my range on the T21 has increased to 70m, on both lairs and creatures.


Thirdly, my speed-sliced spraystick is still firing at once per second (or just about) when I thought there was going to bea 3-second delay nerf??


Are things looking up?!


Please, if anyone has more evidence please post here. Maybe Im just a lucky twi'lek.

Yes i play on chilastra my range now is 70 with t21 , im firing and not miss ... maybe is only a test of devs or maybe is only a one day dream.

how could anything have changed without a patch?


Maybe you just havent realized a powerup or somthing or you havent been paying attention to your gun, I always take up 3-4k with my t21 with HS3

If these stats are stored on their Database rather than ours then perhaps they just did it during the reboot.


If it is just a data change then perhaps we do not need other files.

70m out? Can anyone else confirm that?


As for the increased power, well, I have been getting a lot of high hits lately, but I just chalk it up to luck of the roll.


.....your hitting from 70m out, you say???? ........


[ looks at the work clock ]


dammit, now I REALLY want to go home.... ;-)

I have'nt really noticed an increase in power,, but oddly enough I noticed an increase in speed. I was fireing 1 shot after another, by the time the animation stoped from the first shot, I was already firing my second. It was great...

I'm on the chilastra server.. maybe the devs are testing...

To add to this.. I started a cult on the chilastra server that may quickly spread to other forums.. maybe this is the reason for the sudden boost for riflemen... check the chilastra forums...

People stop trying to think that devs are actually working on rifles because their not, its all luck jsut because you hit hard a few times is jsut bsaed off of luck, if you shoot faster its probably either you over exaggerating your speed or other variables, but chilastra is not a testing ground for enhacing rifles thats what test center is for they wont bring it public without anyone knowing

Now that you mention it, I usually hunt on endor.. and last night was talking me half as much time to blow a lair the usual... didn't notice a significant damage increase, but I was hitting in the higher range.

You're probably just imagining things. I don't think multipliers have changed, there'd be a patch note. My specials nor my autoshots are hitting for any more damage than usual.
