Right now I'm master pistoleer/master BH on a char and I enjoy it, but it's more of a support template. In a few weeks I'll be reactivating my jedi and since I enjoyed BH so much (and because I need to save money)I want to make his free slot another BH.


After seeing the damage a rifleman with BH skills can dish out and the current chatter on pistoleer/carbineer/bh and rifleman forums, will rifleman be worthin a month, or will it be nerfed ?

Can't tell you, what I can tell you is that I will never drop Master Rifleman, I have been one since Nov 2003 and I have been a Novice Rifleman since July 2003, and I was a Rifle user on June 26'th 2003..........

I hear that, Rifle till the end. I didn't start at beta, but I've had a rifle since day 1 .


As for rifle being decent in 3 or 4 months....that all depends on your outlook. I have kept rifleman since launch and have always had a fighting chance in pvp. In the beginning we had to be very careful in the world, but we were still deadly. We got some love from the devs after much whining about frustrating things rifle had to deal with and became more popular, but I have always been able to make this prof work.


I wouldn't count pistol out though either. Any class can be great with the right equiptment and strategy andcomplementary professions. To hear people talk these days a little nerf to one or two things in a profession is the end of the profession. This is happening with Jedi, but I guarantee you there will still be badass jedi that are all but impossible to kill after Pub 19. They will just find a new way of being badass. Same goes with rifle or any profession. You use what the Devs give you untill enough people whine about it and it gets taken away, then you find a new way to win with a slightly different template till enough people whine about that and the cycle continues. Good players find ways to make the character they want good.


Sounds like you are a BH at heart though as opposed to a Rifleman. Using rifle to enhance bh right now is a great Idea. I have that combo and love it. The difference between you and me will probably be that when rifle and bh don't go well together I will drop BH to get something else to go with rifle and you will probably want to drop rifle and find a better match for your BH character.

I've had pistoleer for as long as I can remember, but with almost 50% of the specials useless or broke and the promise of dual wield that never happens, I'm ready for a new template.
