and each one but energy is pretty useless except for stun in PVP when confronted by the billion and one composite clones.
i cant remember the last time i found a use for the SG82 i dont think i have ever seen one being used by anything but a NPC... they could give us a million damage types but if none are useful whats the point???

yea the striker pistol sucks. Youd be hard pressed to find anyone carrying it around. Also, most ranged profs have problems when it comes to dmg type.

What I dislike is TH's response to the question about why the spraystick doesnt get changed to acid. TH said something about it being hard to change damage types of a weapon...and yet they go and change damage types on the Lith rifle...

Seriously guys...come on....i was a master rifleman for awhile and i used to think the same way you guys do, but since i switched to Carbineer it is totally different now...As of right now the two best combat profs are MCM and Master Rifle...rifleman have soooo man different damage types to choose from its not even funny, you guys need to stop whining that you dont have a kinetic rifle and just deal with it...you have Acid, Energy, Heat (berserker rifle), Stun...that is really damn good...Carbineer dont even have a stun weapon....at all, and rifleman get a stun weapon with AP1 and they shoot the one pool that doesnt heal fast..you guys need to look past the end of your nose and see how broken the other professions are b4 you complain that you dont have another type of damage.
I say Nerf Rifleman speed and nerf the jawa to AP0
Say a 3 to 5 second speed cap (just a thought)
And the Jawa is nolonger AP1, making it about even to a geonosian stun blaster

Heh all I want is the striker pistol in a tusken rifle's skin, I don't care if I use it. I just want it to make sense since you shoot bullets with it damit!

You think???? I find that highly doubtful, sure maybe you think about work, maybe you think about school, and maybe you even think about meaning of life, but you sure in hell don't think about this game. I play a Master BH/Carbineer also and through my thinking know what I've come up with?
Armor and buffs are over powered.
With buffs Riflemen can spam as much as a pistoleer, this is wrong. Riflemen should be good for 10 shots and then be tapped totally.
Armor, ha ha ha ha ha.............. Armor has made 7 damage types completely worthless ya armor is overpowered.
This is what is wrong with the game and why rifleman is currently FOTM.
-BTW we never wanted The Beseker rifle, The Lithium Rifle, or even the Disruptor Rifle, all we wanted was for the spray stick to do acid and the tusken rifle to do kenetic like they are ment to.

Amazing how every thread on any of these damned boards , especially profession and GCW turn right into a nerf thread.
Go back under your freaking bridge you trolls

I have to agree thats its daft that we dont have a kinetic rifle. The whole idea for rifles came from haveing a long distance slug thrower (kinetic), is this time period so far ahead they have forgotten this?
As for the muppet who said we should only get 10 shots with a rifle then be mind wiped, Ill take 10 shots if we get 1 shot kill weapons. If i shoot someone in the head and theres a very good chance ill blow it clean ill be happy with just 10 shots. As it is without food, spice or ent buffs i drain my mind inabout 15 seconds.

Ack...
I'm not even a rifleman, I'm just studying to make a rifleman alt and this scares me.
LAY OFF OF THE NERF CALLS ON COMBAT PROFESSIONS!
Rifleman isn't overpowered, IT is POWERFUL and itWORKS.
Unless something is truly gamebreaking, fix things so that EVERY profession works first, THEN balance them out.
I'm a Master Bounty Hunter/Carbineer. Do I fear Riflemen? No, not really. I respect them. If I let them control the battlefield, they will demolish me on sheer offensive power that I can't compare to with us both in armor. If I make them fight on my terms, it's a different story. It's all about tactics. Simply put, don't try to out-damage a Master Rifleman, it simply won't work.
STOP THE NERF CRIES.

To make this fair if rifleman get kinetic, i think there should be a stun heavy weapon, a kinetic heavy weapon, an energy heavy weapon that you don't have to keep buying, an energy vibro knuckler, a stun vibro knuckler....hell, lets let every class get each damage type! and make every class have an AP3 weapon! that would be wonderful!
