Thread: Bring Back 1.5 PvP Damage Modifier!
/agree
life was more challenging/scary with the damage mod. we wouldnt have the problem with the 20 million fotmrifle users if it wasnt so piss easy to level now.

good point, considering only melee people are the ones complaining about us. If we can't kill them before the 15m lunge range then we should die every time. This is just not the case. Because of that you get little immature kids getting rifleman to spam PWND J00 over and over at your friends, who inturn yell at you for being a rifleman. I've been this path since day 1, and it took me two months to master, using an e11 on dant.
But give us a rifle butt thing or a bayonette charge, something to make us at least have something for PVE at close range. I'm just so tired of hearing TKM's whine about it
I started out with rifleman shortly after the T21 nerf, stuck with it through the 2.5x melee damage modifier, been beat down by many commandos with just flame cone 2 or better yet being shot by rocket for over 2k of damage (both of these weapons counted as melee too). I've heard the brawlers complain about kiting (you're dumb if you followed to begin with) so now they can attack from 20m+ (that's over 65 feet and if you think that they can only hit at 10m that is 32 feet), KD you and pull one to two hits on you for incap thanks to the on the ground double damage (back before the recent patch it was 4.5x thanks to having a rifle equipped). I've been beat down by bounty dabblers who ran with grauls and hid while their pet smacked me for over 1k of damage in one shot.
To hear any talk of bringing back some sort of damage modifier for melee makes me rather upset. I'm a rifleman, this is my weapon of choice. Many countries train soldiers to use their rifles not only for range but also melee attacks. Pistoleers in this game are allowed to pistol whip players/npcs/creatures and yes carbineers and rifleman should too. If they are to bring back some sort of modifier they should give us rifle smack down or bayonet to skewer those who charge.
As for the "flavor of the month" this will always happen as players are now chasing holo dreams of making jedi. Also, thanks to the great setup we have anybody can take the best defense/offense from many combat lines to make up an uber pvp character. For those of you upset of the "I PWNZ J00" just wait until jedi run around doing that. There isn't any stopping these kids from opening their fs slot and grinding to be saber toting brats.
I want some Grauls that do over 1k of damage....
btw that Couldn't happen, they dont do that much damage. Maybe with 3 Graul Maulers attacking the most in one shot with 3 would be 1020, but that is unlikely. And that is at master The most a dabler could have hit you with is 2 if that. Sorry to sound like Im flaming your comment, but it is comments like that that Nerfed the Hell out of CH, now being a Master CH is worthless. Though I am a Master Sharpshooter now, and Grauls since the change,even 3 on me at once, are 3 maybe 4 shots from being my next Campsite
