Rifleman Archive

Hello, i was wondering if this was a good idea, cause i know rifle is pretty sucky when a melee gets up close to you, so i was wondering if it is a good idea to take up swords man, so i can whip that out when there at close range and finish up there mind bar.

i plan on going something like Master Rifleman/Master Swordsman and the rest of the points into medic

Master Rifleman is a good idea but I don't think you need to necessarily go all the way to Master in Swordsman. One entire tree(the Sword Offense line) is dedicated to AOE attacks which might be easily skipped with no loss of overall effectiveness. The Sword Techniques and Sword Defense lines look pretty good so I would invest in those. As far as the Sword Finesse goes, I would either take 2 or 4 boxes but not 3. Don't stop at 3 boxes since that 3rd box gets you absolutely nothing, no skills or abilities.

With your extra points from not mastering Swordsman you can get other scouting or medical abilities to round yourself out.
