Hey, I'm just barely starting Rifleman, it's the last combat profession I have left, and it's moving incredibly slow. What should I hunt and which weapon should I u se during the grind to Master Rifleman? Because right now it's the slowest combat profession I've done.

Well, if you're at novice rifleman(just picked it up tonight, myself), the T21 is what most veterans swear by because of it's heavy armor piercing/high damage, though it can be slow without a good speed slice(7.5-8.0 average)and you have to be mindful of the ham cost. When I was talking to some veteran riflemen online, they still liked their Laser Rifle for the primary.

As far as hunting, with Novice Rifleman you can do hunts on Dantooine for quenkers, huurton(sp?) howlers(they still give good xp), or if you really feel adventurous, join a solo group and get harder missions for good XP. Be mindful though that many of the missions on solo groups involve enemies that deathblow. If you have a team mentality, there seems to always be people leading hunting teams to Dathomir for rancors, nightsisters, etc. Yavin IV is also rife opportunities. Endor is often a favorite place for hunters as well as pretty much anything there from psychotic ewoks to the giant Gorax(really meant for a team). Aslo, don't ignore Tatooine. You have the famous Krayt dragon(not meant for you to solo at NR, go with a group), the Krayt graveyard full of Banthas, dewbacks, squills. Also the squill cave can yield good XP.
