Overcharge damages your weapon...that is bad. If you can deal with less decay go srafe and a damage or speed powerup on your rifle. At lower Rifleman levels I would go speed.

Yay.. For some reason over the last few days when I clicked Reply I wouldl get a little message saying Error and then not opening the page. Now I can.


Let me say that I am 4 3 4 3 in Rifleman. I expect to reach Master in the next few weeks. I have noticed that as I get higher, I am getting way better. When I am engaged at cose range I am usually toast. However 2 nights ago 2 bounty hunters thought that they would ambush me. I saw them before they got in range so started running away across Tatooine (I do not often come here). They must have used their Burst run earlier as they didn't use it. The both skitched their Pets on me. This was easily dealt with by using Warning shot on each. Then off ran their pets. Then a simple Mindshot 2 on each and then just let the default shooting happen.


One succumed to his wounds and the other stopped at his body. I bet he was thinking he could get me when i come to DB he will get me. Well... After I used Sniper shot and he realised who I was he ran tried to run away. What he didn't know was that I am almost a Master Ranger as well so i closed the gap and finished him off after he bled to incap.


When I was a Novice I was whinging and Whining but as I get higher I understand how effective we can be. I also know that if we are engaged at close range we are buggered, however. If someone chooses to engage us at max range then it is they who will suffer. I still think the T21 should be more powerful but I will not be complaining
