i'm one of the better rifleman on my server... i paid 21 mil for an 11 speed rifle tape... and it was worth every credit. 1.0 shot per second, versus 1.8 w/ my t21 makes ALL the difference.

As a master rifleman, I wouldn't pay ONE mil for that. What's the point?

Why put this in armor... you do realize that ubese bandleers, and ubese shirts take armor attachments, and even if they hit 0 condition the mods still apply...






malbari belts too, if you odnt use psgs

/agree I do not use PSG, I prefer my belt, but many people refuse to give them up



BTW another tip: your psg will not work unless you reequip it everytime you shuttle

I paid 2.7mil for a +10 attachment, would have paid more but the other bidders wimped out.Since for 99% of the population +7 is the ideal number for rifle speed, +10 isn't much better than +6, and +6 isn't much worse than +10. So in my opinion yes, its worth it.


Another way to think of it is with this +6 tape 99% of your reason to need to master marksman is gone. Even if you keep ranged support 1-4 thats still an extra 34 skill points you don't need to put into pistol and carbine. How much do skill points sell for on your server? What would you pay to have 1 or 2 more skill points almost indefinitely? What would you pay for 34?

Why not just get a speed powerup put it on your t21? Works for me, and costs less...alot less

So at master rifleman, without master marksman, a +7 speed attachment would put you at the hs2 cap with a slow 8.0 speed t21? Oh yeah and if you do buy the tape and put it in something, DO NOT PUT ANY OTHER RIFLE SPEED TAPES IN THE SAME PIECE OF CLOTHING/ARMOR. Only the highest modifier will stick. I was under the impression that this had been fixed with the crackdown, so I put 2 +4's in one ubese shirt....guess its time to go shopping again.

Because with the tape, you can still shoot at the speed cap with a damage sliced gun, and either use a damage powerup for more damage, or no powerup for longer gun life.

It would also put you at the HS3 and Strafe 2 speed cap with a slow 9.0 speed gun. I prefer HS3 since it does do more damage, and I can mitigate HAM costs with food and speed penalties with speed tapes.

With +97 speed, you get 1.0 on every attack with every rifle less than 9.6 speed.
