I'll say this much rifleman is quite weak/hard to play till master. If you havent mastered it dont whine just grind on and you have no business doing anything else . As a master tho i rule both PVP and PVE. In PVP i alone without doc buffs and with just muon gold killed 15+ rebels and 10+ pets (2 of them were rancors). While i did that i died 3 times, one of the detaths i needed to repop Muon to avoid downer. I mean c'mon, i spam mindshot same speed as BH almost and hit for 250-600 a shot, i spam strafe 2 at two second delay for 400+ average PVP damage killing masters and pets at the same time. The rebs had to put me down with rocket launchers..it was too much fun. I will admit on top or master i have +4 speed tape and +4 accuracy while moving tape and it helps a lot but even without this prefession is second to BH overall and the best in long range.So if you say rifle sucks ..just get a master and talk to me then, if you say master rifle sucks... then you simply dont know how to play.

tatharo.youkilled 15 rebs once and only died 3 times? at what point did you start tef exploiting? before or after you killed the first one? what kind of pets were you using? did the newbs whine about just wanting to finish thier missions while you slaughtered them?




just so ya know tatharo, i killed about 10 imps today and only died because of a severe crash that seemed to affect 75% of the people there. granted one of them was a choreographer, but she shot at me first, so i wasted her. i can also solo an atst without dieing once. so you aint no tough guy, and this has nothing to do with not being able to play the game. if you actualy look at my screenshots, youll notice i got off 2 shots both of which were misses and got wasted quicker than i had time to pull out my pistol and finish em off. in the second, pic pulling out the pistol is exactly what i had to do after landing one shot with my rifle.

lol i dont think that guy is even a rifleman! You get a downer from Muon no matter what you do. LOL fearsome rifleman kills 15 rebels single handedly! Yah there obviously wasnt a scatter pistol in the group.


Anyways Ive been doing ok in pvp lately because of one thing: buffs. I dont go into pvp anymore without full ham/secondaries buff because the difference is between me killing 4 or more high lvl combatants, and cloning as soon as I see a red. But when I go down its a loss of 10k and at least 10 minutes of watching/listening entertainers (yawn). In any case this commando owned me yesterday from long range. I got a mind bleed on him so he incapped after he killed me, classic. Anyways I was wondering why the battle log showed that I was missing and he wasnt. I hit once with mind bender, and missed with master head shot. I was kneeling, he was running at me. First shot he took was from at least 60 meters and hit me for 1200 something health shot + fire dot. Second shot incapped me. After looking at his weapon it was all too clear. 500-1000 dmg in 4.5 seconds. +0/60m. +0 at 60 meters! So much for trading power for range.
