Dunno...maybe it's because it's late. But I found this amusing.







it is...since its totally contradicting itself





No. That does not contradict itself. "I'd rather exploit it's strengths once it is mastered. It is such a weak and useless profession" would be a contradiction. What I said is ironic. I want to use something that I see as bugged. I never said it is weak, or useless, or anything in that manner. You idiots need to learn what a contradiction is.

And you need to look at the bigger picture, instead of worrying something trivial as a mixup of words. The strength of a rifleman lays in the fact it isnt bugged. (unlike the other professions)

Please don't speak for us all - I prefer to say that is a less offensive manner I really think if you do not like something in a game don't do that something as if defeats the purpose of a game - that is to have fun.

If you feel you must for your template do it - just don't expect to get as much from it as those who like the profession.

If you truely don't like it you may want to wait till after the CU as the entire profession (in fact all combat professions) will be changing - and what you want rifleman for now will be available to other professions after the revamp.

I'm probably going to regret this, but why do you think it is bugged?

I don't particularly like the grind getting up to Master Rifles, but I have read too many posts from Riflemen who extol it's virtues once they have mastered. Right now it isn't that much fun, but I guess thats what is going to make the payoff even better. I have to agree with what I think the original poster meant, just not the way he phrased it.

Quenkersor baznitchs when you get out of novice, when you are just starting I sugest stick with noobie missions, till you can't get anymore xp and move onto quenkers and or baznitchs on Dathomir.

Bugged and bad do not go hand in hand. Please learn reading comprehension. Hooked on phonics worked for me!

that list of buggs doesnt make any sense.

Strafe shot two works awesome, its the best rifleman attack

Take cover is for RANGED DEFENCE , try it while fighting stormies it adds to your defence mods

The default attack thing is happening to every range prof right now, just more to rifles

The only reel bug in rifle man is Surprise shot having no purpose other than a random hit,
It can startle but that isnt a state in this game!

Other than that which doesnt really matter we are the best offensive prof hands down
Master maxes out speed with +7AA ( isn't really even needed)
Huge mind hit
Stun weapon (this and the previous make us awesome, and yes i know about psgs
and stun armor, if someone has these, there regular resists on armor are low
enough to slaughter them with a t21 and there sheild takes away 4 CA slots)
STRAFE2 one of the best attacks hands down, wide cone HUGE damage
+80 Block at amster, get some vayerbok and AA's and you will barely get hit

what else do you want? The grind isnt that great but master...
...in the words of the forums PWNS JOO!!!!

No default attack while prone... sometimes it happens to me, sometimes the default attack goes of just fine. I don't know why...


I have noticed that if I go prone, and double-click on my target, the default attackis more likely to occurthan if I use the toolbar button. I have also noticed that it is more likely to go off if this is an initial attack.


In all cases, there is a lengthy delay before the default attack starts when you're prone, so it's hard to tell sometimes if you're bugged or if it's just the delay.

if you take cover while standing, you cannot use special attacks for a period of time because of tumbling. strafe shot 2 was buggy last time I used it. I never said rifleman was not an incredibly strong prof.
