Hello fellow Riflemen.
Logging onto the TC today and noticing some of the changes done to rifles, I really can't say I saw much of a differance, but yet an increasment in damages and lowered speeds.
I'm sure this is just for starters until they add new features and tune things up a little. But I'm still curious on a way to think how the effects of currently owned weapons will take place once the CU hits live servers.
Currently on Chilastra I am the only Veteran from launch who has not dropped Rifleman. I have been a Master since early August of 2003 and have invested millions upon millions into the "Uber" rifles that were brought into the economy.
I own 2 Exceptional T21 rifles, 1 being 1342 max dmg with 2.1 speed. The other with 800 max dmg and 3.7 speed. I would get into my others but this isn't the time to talk about them, but these are my pride and joy of the game to express my powers and love for the Rifleman profession.
Once CU hits I know they will be lowering damages on these, however today logging onto TC I noticed several new rifles which I'm quite glad to see introduced, yet the good ones were between 700-900 dmg with 2 speed.
My main question and I'd like to hear thoughts from all of you, is will these rifles be damage reducted, or will they stay the same come live? I love the new features and additions to the profession, I really think they will boost the point of who and why you are a Rifleman, and on some droughts many will drop and choose a new profession. But I would like to hear some opinions on this and what you think and why on the terms of the new rifles and their damages/speeds opposed to the old ones.

you have to remembe that the weapon speed you see in TC now, is in NO WAY similar to what it once was. all combat is calculated completely differently.

They never said damage will be reduced, but adjusted / brought in line with CU specs. Check this out for further info.

The 1/3rd comment was in reference to frog generated weapons conditions, not thier damage.

Currently the specials and skill progression are being tested on a newbie level. Damage and speed will change. SG-82 doesnt have cold damage right now even
