Depends on the flavor of the cake.

How much do you think I can get for an armor attachment with Rifle Aiming +6?

I seem to remember that the T-21 was blast damage once a long long time ago, at least over a year ago, Is it just my memory that fails me and if now did the Dev's give a reason for changing that? And can you ask them to change it back?

Ok so that is 3 question but my normal server is down...

Most of the elite ranged professions have Energy as their main damage type. I don't think they ever gave a real reason for the switch.

Rifle Aiming probably isn't worth much. But you'll have to ask on your servers trade forums to see what you can get for it.

The Berserker rifles that people are selling are really expensive, and im not wanting to waste all of my money on one. Are they really that great or not? Becasue the way it looks now, my T-21 rifle and Tenloss DXR6-b Disruptor rifle are both better than the Berserker rifle.

The Berserker is AP0 Heat Damage. My personal opinion is that the T21 and DXR-6b are far superior. One of the reasons that the Berserker is expensive however is that it's bugged and new ones can't be made.


The Berserker is more of a show piece right now more than anything.

with the upcoming CU looming hopefully sometime in the near future, what can we expect to see in changes for the rifleman profession? right now we are deemed 1 of the most powerful professions currently, and many people are opinionated about how powerful we are, not realizing that our defenses are low, our accuracy while running is abysmal and dont understand that our damage output is meant to balance the shortcomings.


i personally think that rifleman will take a reasonably hard hit when the CU does happen, and i know you cant speak on such things, but it would be nice to know if we will still be effective after it happens, for i fear we will become much like CH is, from the all-encompassing feeling from the public about the profession.








unfortunately Waste is Bound by the NDA about any and all changes to the profession. He would love to give you all a taste but him getting kicked out of the game and then sue'd by SOE is not his (nor our) idea of fun and excitement. I think that with the revamp we all will have to re-evaluate what and where we are going. Not one profession that is combat will be left out and Many things will change that we do not expect. SO "forget all you know"(tm) and "wait until beta"(tm) before you will find out what is up.

If I have anything to say about it we will definately be effective. There are two ways to balance. Bring everyone down to the lowest common denominator. Or bring everyone up. I'm trying for the latter.
