kiting is when you run from a melee guy shooting at them...

...making sure to land a flurry2 to keep them from burst running at you and getting within lunge range.

Bizzy,

Glad you're liking riflemen and don't worry about the haters, not sure why they felt the need to gripe at your post saying you like the riflemen profession. I love it also and although I've left it a few times to try melee stacking and other profs, I always seem to come back.

Just curious about this from your post:

-----------snip

Anyway, I am liking master rifleman...not I am just waiting for my friend to give me the pre-nerf belt (no condition) so I can put my nifty armor attachments in it

-----------

I don't use a belt because it takes the PSG slot. I have a dream belt from the days when PSG's use to not work that is +7 speed, +12 rifle acc while moving, +9 rifle accuracy that sits most of the time because I prefer to use a PSG. It seems like you'd be killing yourself to not invest in either a bandolier or just regular tapes that go in your shirt or armor instead of a belt which uses the PSG slot, but that's just my take. It takes credits, but those can be made, to cap out your stats dizzy/blind/kd/posture down/block with tapes in your armor, but I think it's worth it.

Thanks for not flaming me I appreciate it. As for the belt thing...well I found out that I cannot use a psg at the same time I made 1.9 mil profit though...so I guess I really can't complain too much (buying and re-selling the attachments).

And well, I'm capped on dizzy/blind so that's not a problem. It doesn't bother me too much that my kd def and def vs lower posture change is low since I cannot be dizzy, but it's nice to have better defense to prevent from ruining a /burstrun.

Yes I love rifleman...and I love my template, but I found that I do not pvp with it much anymore. I kill faster than my alt, but I also die quicker simply because of the dots. My alt has doc in his temp so he doesn't have a problem outlasting people...but has no firepower Anyway, thanks for the good reply, this was actually worth a /bump unlike the others.

i find the best template i have had YET is this one.

Mrifles
Mfencer
0040 pistoleer
+
3000 swordsman (extra def vs intimidate) or 0140 medic (although here you lack +5 def vs dizzy till u cap out)

with a +7 rifle speed CA and a +12 rifle acc while moving bandolier i find myself being able to take out anyone as long as they dont have any hardcore dots. with this template a CoB macro + pikatta pie = noone EVER hitting you as a fencer, and i can get them blind, dizzy, doing the flop and intimidated with fencer tehn run 30m equip my t21 and blast. nto amny people can stand up to this as using the medic switch, the only thing that can hurt me are swordsmen (i have low blast resist)

Good template, my weakness is a swordsman as well...kiting handles them though. Seems that people keep /bumping my thread lol. I won't be sticking with this template much longer. I got a new template in mind let's just say...I'll have a template with a minimum of +85 defense vs intimidate...which can easily get it over 100 with food. Primary attack will be a fencer...

Fencer + capped intim def + capped dizzy def + capped stun def...ultimate dueling template and jedi killing. Ever tried hitting a fencer that doesn't have intim or stun on them? on dodge food?

I'll be migrating to the fencer forums soon and meet up with a few people whining about lack of offense on a defensive profession.

Ok all this talk about templates and beating stackers, i bet you do have the standard
master rifle 4440 fencer dont you? I can beat melee stackers with master doc no problem
i can beat TKM Fencer, I can even take almost all non MLS jedi you wanna see my temp?

Master Rifle, Pistol 0044, BH 3040, Master Marks, Scout 4000, Nov Medic

You wanna know what that is? The most badass template in the game with no
brawler. If you wanna be a rifleman I say go all out!!

Fencer 4440...no, not even half of that. Yes that is a good template...would I consider it the most badass in the game? No, but that is my opinion. On Sunrunner, I'd say 95% of the jedi who pvp are master sabers (other 5% is for margin of error...I don't know any non-master sabers with a finished template).

HAHA in my elements i own all melee stackers!!!

Master Ranger/Master Rifleman. You all walk sooo slow up hills, i can blaze up them.

So i lay some HS3 pn you, then run up a hill, as you try and run up, i keep hitting you, when you get near top, i run down, shoot you untill you get near me. then i run back up the hill!!!!

only works as long as they don't have 4000 scout or are not grouped with a SL
