No, it's still there. Riflemen that want to remain gods just one starred it and your setting obviously filter it out.

PVP gods? Hardly i do 170-500 damage using my jawa. I still get eyeshotted for 500 damage at times, not to mention the occasional tkm that does dizzy/kd and 600+ damage scalp slams to me.

Armor...use it, who cares that it makes your HAM costs higher, the way you guys get buffed now even a full suit of the heaviest armor around wound dent your low HAM costs. If you simply used kinetic armor that 600+ damage hit (obviously while you're KD, otherwise a 600+ hit isn't going to happen) only becomes what, 150 damage? lol oh ya, against a fully buffed person it would take forever to kill you. And eye shot is so weak, I think with my 60% acid helmet I was hit for 75 damage today a shot...oh man, fear that damage /sarcasm.
And your Jawa can naturally cut right through all armor, so 99% of the time your shots go uneffected by someone wearing even a full suit of armor (no other proffession can do this with such impunity that you guys can, fencers have to be within 15m to even lunge with their stun weapon, and pistoleers get a pathetic stun pistol that is a complete joke damage wise). And lets say someone tripple layers stun, gets something like 40% stun resists, well guess what, your little rifle is AP1, so it still goes through armor fairly easily, meanwhile fencers and pistoleers with tangle pistols sit there and crap their pants because they're screwed with AP0 weapons....
Right now, there is nothing that can stop a riflemen with a good jawa ion rifle, or even a good laser rifle...

Uh I do use armor. 80+ composite. And if i'm not mistaken i'm dizzy/kd while TKM can target any pool they want. So please just leave. Try the fencer forums they get a stun baton, and isn't the tangle pistol stun? Go harass BH, Smuggler, and Pistoleer. Or better yet just leave. .
lol sure they can target any pool thay want, hell, they can stand there beating on you for several minutes if you're buffed, you're not going to be taking hardly any damage at all.
Ya, and both the stun batton and tangle pistol are AP0, meaning you can actually deffence against them if you put stun lairs in your armor...meanwhile the AP1 of the jawa ion rifle makes even bothering with stun resists in armor completely irrelivent and pointless...

Really!? Kudos to the Dev's for letting me have those settings.
Oh wait... now you will probably ask to have my settings nerfed... Figures..

First off Manimal, its Jardone here, not A'rien. Next time I'll tag it in size 32 font to get the point across. Point is, I was master Rifle too. And one on one with any other straight up combat profession (not Hybrids or dabblers) it is about 2-3 times more powerful. Only thing that comes close is TKA, and we have 59 meters on them. Its been posted again and again, a nerf is coming. Most see it in the form of a 3 second cap. All I was doing here is trying to present an alternative to something that would cripple the profession.
You want to be an ass Manimal and come flame me here, while I'm trying to be constructive, whatever. That's your business. Why don't you just try to keep me from posting, since obviously these are ETU's boards an all. See how well that works. Then maybe you can cry to Nerf the forums since you won't be able to PWN them anymore once you wake up and realize you aren't God.
To get this back on track, besides the obvious fact that it weakens the proffesion (duh) would most of you rather see changes like what I posted, or a hard cap at 3 seconds?
