I Mastered Rifleman in 3 days camping at Ft Tusken and got some decent loot there too but it seems like the loots all gone because I've found jack there hunting lately.

?!?!?!?! uhm...i get 30k xp per mission. each mission takes me under 12 minutes (i eat 1 canape per mission and they always end right after i blow the lair.) 10k per hour is extremely low. are you hunting on corellia? do missions on dantoine or go hunting randomly on endor or dath. also, dont conceal shot. use headshot over and over while kneeling. if your gun stinks use /aim before ur attack (if you have ranged support)
good luck on the xp hunt

I used a speed sliced spraystick with damage powerups to do the early levels of rifleman. It seemed to work better than a laser rifle or t21.

/travel 1 year past
hello there, yeha I hear you. is sooo hard to be a rifleman we must be the worst profession in SWG. This game sucks we have armor that noone can use because you cant put it on, our ham bars are wayyy too low compared to the mobs and we have no way to buff it, I ate the melons that I started the game with so is hard to find good chef foods. I dont even want to mention the 2x damage multiplier we get. plus group xp is broken. Ahhh I wish anyone in the galaxy would join a group with me but hunt in different places... i would call it a sologroup...bah a man can dream. well anyway my advise is that you travel a year in the future master rifles in a week and become one of the best professions in PVP. Good luck
/travel 1 year present
the old days... I missed when we were one of the worst professions.

must have items for newb rifleman:
1. speed sliced T-21 (5ish speed)
2. several _crates_ of +33% speed +16% mind cost ranged powerups
3. full set of composite armor (any kind, doesnt need to be efficiency sliced)
4. full set of buffs
5. 1 crate of vasarian brandy
6. 1 crate of vagnerian canape
7. ticket to dantooine mining outpost
what you do next
- get into a solo group and get missions for hurtoon stalkers ( 10k credits per mission )
- ride out to your mission
- lie down once you're 55m from your closest hurtoon
- drink brandy, eat canape
- mindshot first hurtoononce to make it mindbleed, then spam headshots until it's dead (you can spam headshots indefinitely with aforementioned buffs)
- once the hurtoon starts to run toward you, hit kneel and keep spamming headshots until its dead
- repeat until lair is unprotected
- shoot lair ONCE, then immediately peace, wait for more hurtoons to appear
- kill them off until lair is unprotected
- shoot lair until it spawns another hurtoon, peace and start attacking hurtoons one by one
remember:
- lie down (prone) before starting to shoot, this way you can knock off atleast 50% of the hurtoons mind before he even charges you
- always rise to kneeling before hurtoon reaches you, they might dizzy and then you're knocked down if you try to change posture
- if ganged up on by several hurtoons, stay at kneeling and start spamming /pointBlankArea1
alternative route (i never tried this until i was already at 3x33 rifleman so dont know if it will work at novice but it's fast):
- apply buffs and food/drink
- run up to lair and start spamming /pointBlankArea1 until hurtoons are dead
- pump lair like before but use /pointBlankArea1 to kill everything
pet variation, if you have a good kinetic tank:
- lie down 55m from lair, command pet to attack lair, pick off hurtoons with headshots from range
using this technique i can clear a hurtoon lair mission in about 10-15 minutes (including travel times). this means 4-5kxp per hurtoon x 10-20, 10kcr from the lairkill and a TON of harvested materials (im also ranger).
