well, we'll see. i have heard the same information. speed cap, damage reduction, lowered defenses. If it affects my combat to much i'm just gonna quit and never play another mmorpg again. i can't deal with the amount of time i've investedin this game going down the toilet. It's just not acceptable to me.

I think the big question for this thread is "Where?"

Everyones talking about it but where's the evidence, all this "I heard it from a kid who talked to a CSR is just troll BS."


Evidence, logs, links where is it ! without it it's just single star fodder.


infact .. can we get a moderator in here to lock and remove these "nerf" threads they're clearly not constructive or helping the profession in any way at all. Serving in fact only to inflame the rifleman comunity.

Methinks your formula for speed needs work, Mortitude.


[ (weapon speed) / { 1 + (speed bonus)} ]
[ (7) / (1+90) ]
[ (7) / (91) ]
[ 0.07692... ]


I've been trying to think up a working weapon speed modifier that I could post here, but since I'm no math genius I end up getting weapons shooting faster with a lower speed mod, or slower weapons. I need a little while to think up a good one...

Anyone can Takei, just use the report Forum abuse option in your menu and put up a good argument as to why the thread should be deleted.. It works

d'oh - yeah it does. divide speed bonus by 100


edit: of course there would have to be more to it than that. like reducing the number of tissues to make rifles to bring it more in line with other guns such as the Scatter Pistol

all i have to say is IF , they nerf our speed............ OUR damage MUST...(HAS TO) go up..... Not down. It's as simple as that. IF they nerf out Damage........then speed has to stay the same.

LOL, check this out...


Rifleman x/x/x/3


(7)/(1+40) = .1707... mmmm.... I sure didn't go that fast back then. It was more like 5 seconds on a 7 second rifle. Huh, something wrong with this picture?


I'm guessing more like this


(weapon speed)* { 1- (speed bonus)/100}


btw, I only get 90. btw, I get pounded into dust still if I don't pay attention (no, I cannot tank better then my TKA friends). Funny that. Oh ya, I remember why now, I CAN'T STACK 'CAUS I GOT NO POINTS LEFT TO STACK AND IT'S THE STACKING STUPID.


Leave us "riflemen only" alone and nerf the stackers please. ok, I feel better now

I dont know who keeps saying Rifleman are uber. Im a Master Rifleman/MCM and I get killed all the time. Im no uber PVper i do it for fun. If anything need to be looked at ,its the Stackers, when guys can come around and kill 4 to 6 players and not get a scratch somethings wrong. With defense stacking in the game how can you legitemitly look at the other classes and call for any kinda nerf. Fix that first and lets look at the playing field then. What need to be done is all classes need to be leveled to where a battle can be fought that last more than 3 seconds for any class. Then force and strategy can be used the way its supposed to be used. The clone zerging is just stupid and in no way fun at least in my eyes. I luv rifles but if they nerf it Ill be going back to PvE as its not all that powerful...
