your whole post is total crap. i went to lok and in 2 hours i earned 30k rifle experience with my laser rifle. now please tell me how that's useless? if i had used a gay ass e11 or sg82, i wouldn't have been able to do that. no weapon in this game is useless it all depends on playstyle (except maybe the jawa ion cannon...that gun sucks)
I never said it was bad for PvE, I said it was bad for PvP. Its one shot kill or nothing, and if you dont get the one shot your dead, or running.
Thought i dont have a laser (stupid linked steel hasnt spawned on SS yet) i can say my e11 isnt that great in
PVP its about 50 - 167 4.4 speed. yeah its fast, but not fast enough and doesnt doo much damage. By the
time i fire off 2 shots a pistoleer has fired 4 and im dead, plus i do like 300-400 to boot , i bearly leave a mark
on him and if i do its not much.Bu guys do remeber, some people dont ever have laser rifles and ive only
seen 2 hits over 1k
1. By a kimo in lok
2. by a rancor tamer on dath
yep, thats it
Kinda funny, but I see a larger problem than the rifle arguement. All I read was how if you shoot badly on the first shot of Pvp then it wont matter.
Doesnt that seem like the PvP is broken at that point? I would hope a fight is more than a gamble of who gets a shot off first or for what damage. EQ blew it with manaburn making pvp a one shot kill, and frankly it wasnt fun. Even if I am on the winning side, I find no satisfaction in not having a fight that is fun and longstanding (to a degree).
The rifle arguement is all about preference, some are willing to get the big shot for a higher risk of others. Both have their place, and both are deserving of their use.
A question for the people who say the E11is good. What are the stats on your E11?
I just got a E11 stats are: damage 7-143, speed 5.5, HAM 15/25/43. I Tried hs3 on my friend and I hit him for 500. Doesn't seem too hot to me and most of the E11s I see have stats about the same.
closehauled76, did i say 2 hours? whoops i did....i meant 2 lairs...sorry about that :-p
