Rifleman Archive

the rifle faq is not too bad, the simple idea is to do missions on dantooine, quencker and hutoons,

use a pet ( get a nice non ch pet) and group and got for on a hunt, quencker are usually in groups of two, and per lair tap only 2 will show up in a total of 6 per lair.

with a group pet its around 3k xp per quencker

dont use a t21 until youre master use a good laser rifle

for skill get concealshot when you go solo cause they never will aggro you

then go for the counter-sniping tree until IV, the flushing2 is a AE damage shot, at this level get a high HAM non ch pet, let it attack the quencker lair . you target the lair too and spam the flushingshot2 und with 5-8 shoots lair and 6 quencks are dead, you got bout 18k xp and the mission reward

skill tree advancement 0-1-4-x, then 4-1-4-x, then 4-4-4-x then master

When I first started becoming a rifleman, there wasn't a faq on here. Now that there is one all new novice's should take advantage of it.

thanks for the help, I see now the things I was lookin for in the faq. Thanks also for the advice, I think I am mostly on the right track but learned some new stuff with your posts.

oh by the way, I dont have a laser rifle but a bowcaster that is 3.8 for 298 dmg. It works really well.

Laser rifle is medium AR (2) as opposed to the bowcaster which is AR0 you should notice a significant dmg increas between the 2. The main downside to a Laser Rifle is its low low minimum dmg.

ok, I will get one then, thank you. Does the armor piercing still go by the armor guide or the devs way. I read both threads, but I didnt see if there was a difinitive change.

A T21 witha speed slice and a speed powerup can also be used effectively by a non-master. Before mind buffs, I used to worry about ham costs in my powerup, but now you should go with a 33% speed/16% max dmg powerup (or vice versa). Also, I used a lot of overcharge shot when I leveled early on in my rifle career. It tears up your rifle, but the extra dmg is significant. Those were the days...those were the days. When I was told routinely that "rifle suxors".

it works as per the armour guild. the devs dont seem to know how it works

This profession's hard to level? Jesus, you must be incompetant or something then, my BH was 10x harder to level, I never even bothered with armor on my RM character until I was master...

Lol ok looks like the best thing to do is to get one of each and use them for different situations. By the way I have seen lots of people here use the jawa ion gun, what is the advantage of that besides the stun ability?
