Syrah wants you hit master rifleman it doesnt matter if your rifle's speed is 2.6 or 9.6.. your still gonna be shooting once per second. Theres a cut-off point for speed.

but if you go faster than you can do SPECIAL ATTACKS at 1s...


if you rifle shoots at a rate of 1s then if you shoot someone with a mindshot2 then it will have a 2s delay... if your rifle shoots at .5s (caps at 1s for shots) and you shoot someone with a mindshot2 then it will have a 1s delay... the cap comes into effect AFTER the speed modifier.


And lets face it, how often do you shoot a regular shot at anything? My riflemen is only a novice so I don't have the rifle experiance to know what it's like at master, but even with novice rifle every shot I shoot is a special.


If you get your speed down enough then you can get some really fast headshot1's with a T21

Whoever that spent expriment points in attack speed in a LASER RIFLE has no clue about rifleman.



Laser Rifle is good for minddot ONLY i think. For normal attacks w/o specials i have a very good E11. For specials i would use T21(if i had one)or E11, or DLT for very long battles. I have not tested cold and stun rifles yet.


Get a laser rifle with high min/max damage with LOW speed and slice it. You almost have a chance of 50% to do very very good dot attacks. Remember in mind shots AR/AP doesnt matter, so i think Laser is overall better than T21 for MS1 and 2.

I just bought today a 120-254 4.0 speed, now the good thing about this weapon is.. stun dmg.. omg stun dmg is awsome, every single type of armor in the game is vunerable to stun dmg, so no one is absorbing my dmg no matter what. Plus it makes cool blue lasers =)

Whoever wrote that post has no clue about weaponsmithing. When you experiment, speed and damage happen together.
