/agree's with Laipi


that's exactly it.



besides - I don't know about you guys, but i did the pull+ kite thing over and over and over for about 2 weeks (snorbals, LeviaSqualls, etc). i got so frickin sick of running, missing, running, incaps, warps, running, missing, sloooow xp altogether.


If you want master rifle so you can PvP/Hunt high profile Animals and NPC's - get a good tank and baz nitch to win. laying prone at 45-60m and flushing2for1-2.5k dmg on4-5 creatures clustered around your tank is SOOO much more satisfying than having to run 300m while kiting and missing 1-4 mobs at a time.


i've done the kite grind and hated it. group xp is very fun and i love going out with my guild mates on big hunts - but for soloing XP, you can't beat baz nitches + a tank.


just my opinion on the subject -

A pet can't hold aggro on more than 5 mobs at once... the sixth will head right at you.

somehow i doubt its that easy


Sorrow, u asked what will you have when u reach master??? a master rifleman of course. Thats what we are all trying to get to here, isnt it?? I have been working toward that goal since launch. I play often, but alot of times i am running harv's or resources for the guild, so i dont grind out a ton of xp at one time. Sure it has taken a long time, but it will be worth it in the end. And i think that goes for just about anyone that picks this profession. lets face it, its not easy being a rifleman.

I'm unfamiliar with the Area effect shot in the concealment line. What's the name of the shot you are reffering to?

I dropped my Bothan Master Rifleman to restart a zabrak Rifleman.I mastered that Char in 8days and I only powerplayed on the weekend. As a Novice Rifleman I went straight up to countersniping3 and as soon as I got Flushingshot 2 I started AOE shooting BazNitches with a speed Sliced T21 and a Grand Wrix tanking.I kept my downtime low by using D-Stims for my pet and MasterChef food for my mind. The trick is to send the pet on the lair and wait till all BNitches are on the pet and then pull the pet a few m away from the lair. Then u can start shooting without hitting the lair. That way I became MasterRifleman from 2-0-3-2 in 8h (2.700k XP) and neither I nor my pet died once that day.
If you dont want to use a pet but got a good panshee Faction, then just go to Endor grab 2 pashee missions. Go to your target but doont attackt the pasheed. Pull a nearby mob towards the panshee lair. They will tank for you due to your good Pashee faction. I did that as soon as I could use a laserrifle and i got 2-4k XP each pull. So, everyone can master Rifleman pretty quick if you're doing it right but if you wanna speed it up, get a pet and use AOE shots.
