Sweet Jesus.

My days of praying for a damage slice on a player-crafted T21 are done. I have found my new obsession.

Where did you get that rifle, from Nightsisters?

Why not slice it? A slice doesn't speed the decay at all. If you got a 35% damage slice on that puppy it would be even more insane then it is now.

A sliced weapon will decay much faster than an unsliced weapon. The chances of getting a 35%+ damage slice are slim.

unfortunately in this game you can be a "good" rifleman if you have an uber gun. That is not to say you are good at being and thinking like one but you are able to deal devastating amounts of damage quickly. With the forth coming introduction of LOS rules this may change...

Being a good rifleman is about strategy, not about "my gun's bigger and better than yours."

Wanna duel? I'll kneel and spam shots at you. We'll see how far your 'strategy' gets you. This isn't turn based RPG combat, this is whoever shoots the fastest and does the most damage, combat.

A good roleplay rifleman is not about who has the biggest gun - but I dare you to duel a rifleman with a legendary t-21 with a 1200 tick mind fire... even if you have identical equipment otherwise and better strategy


I wish it was not about the gun but until combat system hits and we see how it works the biggest gun will mean the biggest winner - if best rifleman means the person who wins the most then the best rifleman will be the person with the most powerful rifle 9 out of 10 times

Yes, it is a nice gun. No need to brag about it though-it's just as easy to use as any otherweapon.Bet you'd be prettyhumbled when someone with the right DoT rifle comes along with buffs/armor/synthsteak/PSG and is able to take some shots from you whilethey land that Mind Fire and /burstrun away. Not the most brilliant tactic or the most 'honorable', but it's the same as spamming SS2 or HS3with a 2k max rifle A faster, more powerful weapon makes things easier, but that will never guarantee a win.Nor will it ever 'make' a Rifleman. And that's a good thing
