What I think I know:
1.the FS Range Speed is borked, but FS Melee Speed works for rifles currently
2.there is a cap on Ranged Defense at +125
3.there is NO CAP on Rifle Accuracy
What I would like to know:
4.is FS Ranged ACCURACY also broken?
5.the FS trees give you "Enhanced Ranged Speed and Enhanced Ranged Accuracy".
Assuming they DID work, do these Enhanced values just ADD ON to your regular Rifle Speed and Rifle Accuracy values?
6.Will the FS Enhanced Ranged Accuracy also add on to your "Rifle Accuracy while Moving" skill?

Thats the way I'm assuming it works, from what I've heard.
But I haven't heard much, and I assumed this game was going to have less bugs than it does now.

from my personal experience i believe ranged accuracy is working. i experienced a definate decrease of misses when i used a free unlock on ranged accuracy. i did it to help with the holo grind and the millions of XP i needed to finish 
but in my opinion ranged accuracy seems to work.

5) The enhaced accuracy and speed, from my understanding, get added to any "RangedweaponX accuracy/speed" Skills. I don't think they get added on twice, once fro normal accuracy and once for accuracy while moving. So yea, they just add on to your rifle speed and accuracy.
6) I don't think so. So above answer
I didn't know there was no cap on rifle accuracy though.. that's news to me.

- Correct
- Correct

- Unknown for sure since that would be difficult to test. It is generally assumed that it is also broken.
- Correct
- Not exactly. It adds to your base Rifle Accuracy. However Rifle accuracy is taken into account when moving. So it will improve your accuracy while moving. The Rifle Accuracy While Moving counters the movement penalty. Which I believe is around -35 or -40. So a Rifle Accuracy While Moving +10 would drop that penalty to -25 to -30. That penalty would be added to the accuracy formula which takes into account your Rifle Accuracy also.

Thanks, ALL... That was definitely some good information!
I had never heard that about the movement penalty before, Waste, so that was excellent info!

yeah all attacks have a movement penalty and it effects NPC more than players so when fighting things like on the vette i tend to move in small circles to maximize my defenses while i am being targeted. but the ranged accuracy is VERY subjective there isnt much in the way of proof that anyone can trot out.
