I did quenkers until I hit counter-sniping 3, then I did the rest of rifleman in the geo cave, took all of, a day or 2, rifleman is so easy to master it's sickening

Ugh, you're using a krayt T21 and stun protected armour to hunt elders?!? get some lightish kinetic comp instead of wasting pvp armour on them and buy a bunch of generic stocked T21's and get them sliced, keep all the 500+ damage ones for elders, dont waste nice guns and armour for pve
When I hunt big game I have 3-4 generic 500+ base damage T21's powered up, so I can switch to a new one as the powerup wears off, its much better than using a single nice gun on pve stuff. And as a rifleman I think you are better off targeting the mind rather than using strafe, yeah its a much bigger hit but you can and often will hit 3 different pools, if you work the one pool it will generally be quicker when the dang thing has 360k ham.
And for the guy saying how powerful rifleman is.. Yay the secret is out! now go try doing elders or anything else for that matter as a swordsman..
You want power vs a 360k ham critter?!? As a rifleman you will still take an assbeating and your armour will disappear at an amazing rate but swordsmen barely even need to heal against the damn things and they can get hordes of sisters with 20-50k ham in packs of like 10-20 and just mow them down with area attacks while barely being scratched. I wish I could do that as a rifleman! Swordsman is the true PvE powerhouse, not rifleman...
Which is the reason my template is drifting to master swordsman, master rifleman, Medic 4040, Scout 2010 before it heads to master rifle MCH.
Ya thats a fairly effective pve template, I would thinkofmaybe getting powerboost tree of tka instead of scout though, but to each their own and dont get me wrong I would never say rifleman isnt a powerhouse in PvE but swordsmen surpass us.
I wish I could mow through Axkva's house like swordsmen can
If I had the points to get meditation 4 and still have decent medic skills and scout I might do that..but I freaking hate walking so slow...hm...duno what I'm gonna do, leveling Rifle isdeathly slow for me compared to what I did TK and Swords in (5 days for TK and 3 days for swords.) Is there a better way to level rifleman that I don't know about (other then concealshot.)
[edit] Do you think that Master Swords, Master Rifle, TKa 4000, medic 2030 with ranged support 1 (for aim) would be better?
