Rifleman Archive

Sorry guys. I've been a rifleman since day one, and while I haven't posted to often in here I was always very proud of my profession and the other people that chose to tough it out.

The time has come for me to finally admit that except for PVE rifleman just have nothing that another class doesnt... Well okay, mind bleeds.... to bad a good BH can kill you with an eyeshot and DB you well before the first bleed actually hits him.

To boot it seems Devs are so "worried" about the amount of damage that we can do that they have somehow missed commandos and BH's, which in turn are now the ONLY practical class to play if you EVER PVP.

So while I'll keep my fingers crossed for y'all and hope to come back to an improved rifleman class later I am going to start dropping my skills in favor of another class. I wish it could be some other way... but well frankly the Devs aren't to concerned about this class. The first T21 patch proved that after we went nuts and they published anyway, and even when we showed them no problem existed they nerfed us again anyway...

Thanks for all the info and time you put in here and I hope to see you all again!

I thought rifleman sucked too....They don't...I have a post nerf T21...I'm getting dangerously close to master, and with each new skill, I'm more amazed with my character...don't give up...I've been there...rifleman is a tough beginning class, but it's worth it.

LOL

I hear yah and I'm glad to see people have hope... But I AM a master and at least to me its just not viable in PVP unless your in a support role.

I dont want to admit it but I have to. We are not in the **edit** son position that commandos used to be in, and I dont see the devs moving very quickly to fix our class. In fact they have done nothing but nerf it so far...

Rifleman take a lot more tactics than other professions.. but at Master we are really strong. I don't loose any one on one battles and with the AoE I can often take out 2-3 guys and their pets while I survive myself.

I Agree, I don't think we are so bad, We can do well in pvp, I haven't seen anything in PVE that I can't beat so no complaints here either.

I'd just love the concealment line to be worth something , our HAM cost reduced and our accuracy upp'ed just a bitthen I'll be happy.

Master Rifleman and stuff.

I agree that PvE we are strong. But maybe they could tone down the melee dmg on us. Maybe only 1.75x or something. Hell even 2.499999 would be a much better change than the 2.5 we suffer from now. Maybe if they could beef us up just slightly in PvP. Maybe if conceal and suprise shot were also good for PvP. In other words they didnt auto-attack if we used that hit first but at the same time make it so it is only good in once per fight. Those would be the only changes I want right now. Well that and to be able to buy T21s the way they used to be.
