Rifleman Archive

I'm going to go crazy, besides them and torturs, they seem to be the only creatures higher lvl Rifleman can hunt effeciantly for good exp, for people who are masters and such, what did you hunt to grind your way up besides the two aformentioned creatures?

what does BAF and WS stand for?

Was there a Elder Male Snorbal and Mature Snorbals in the group? If so, if you attack any of those and there in the same lair spawn, they will mob you. Elder/Mature Females don't mob. And the calfs don't mob. Theres basically two types of spawns I see. One with 2 Matures and 1 Elder Male with a Female Calf. The other is 2 Mature and 1 Elder Female with a Male Calf. That is the preferable spawn, as they don't BAF.

BAF====Bring a Friend

WS=== Warning Shot

WS is warning shot BAF means if he has friends around they will help him attack you. Not sure what the acronym actually stans for.

I know how you feel, except it was with, jaxes and baz nitches. Baz nitches were just horrible, since they werent slow. I probably playued like 10 hours a day XPing, now i play like 2-3 hours a day becuase the grind is over, and half my guild still arent masters.

^^^^^^^^It also wouldn't hurt if you guys read the Riflemen's info from the riflemen corospondant^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

They've changed the Snorbals now. Last night as I on Lok as I have been for about 2 weeks (mostly there anyway). I came across a Snorbal mission and took it. I usually don't because I love those dorky looking elephants, but I needed some hide. So I get to my mission, start shooting at one, and the whole lair comes after me! This did not happen the day before, or for the past 2 weeks, so I'm assuming they've "nerfed" the Snorbals into pack hunters now. Am I wrong about this?

Guess I can spill the beans since I'm through hunting them anyway. If you're a new Rifleman and are looking for something relatively simple to solo, the best monsters I've ever seen aaaaaaarrre:

Feral Banthas, on Tatooine, usually found North of Wayfar.

They do NOT swarm.

They're only slightly faster than the average player.

They are killers, so don't die near one.

There are regular Banthas, Tusken Banthas, Dune Banthas, and Domesticated Banthas. They all suck. Feral Banthas are a blessed gift to Riflemen everywhere. They net about 800-1000 XP a kill and only take 3-6 Headshots to drop (depends on the quality of your weapon).

They are also excellent Scout XP for harvesting.

Go prone andHeadshot away. You do not need to bleed them; they won't live long enough to bleed. Be prepared to run or use Warning Shot / Suppression Fire if they charge and you don't have them pretty close to dead. A Spraystick will help a lot in these kind of emergencies.

Feral Banthas randomly spawn, so wander around a bit. If you find a lair (Rocky Shelter type), you've got yourself an easy 20KXP that involves almost no kiting and no swarming monsters to deal with.

Or you could hunt snorbals...

which dont BAF

Arent faster then the average player

Aren't killers

and give 1.5-4k exp

Can a rifleman with only Expert Rifle in the marksman tree do Snorbals or GBN solo? I can minshot1 & run, but will I get the xp? I have a laser rifle 6.7sec recharge 337 or so max damage, I am not sure on teh chance to hit. Thanks!

soooo, anything with the name Nym in front of it won't BAF? Like, Nym's Kusack or Nym's Droidekas and such? I need to know...Please explain, thanks in advance.

GBN have 10k mind so killing them without mindshot2 takes a while. You have to hit a mob at least once with a non bleedattack and be within 64m to get the exp when it dies. You really need warning shot as well to do GBN.

I heard that Nyms now BAF.
