Thread: Rifleman grind is the slowest I have done yet. Help!!!
Hey guys, I got Novice Rifleman yesterday, and I need some help.
When I got Novice Rifleman, I already hadenough Combat XP saved to get Flurry Shot 2. So I started Rifleman with Flurry Shot 2 at 0/0/0/3.
Now, after getting Flurry Shot 2, I realized that its worthless. 700 DMG to random pools? Tell me how that helps please. (although it is an AOE attack.)
The +35 speed I have from the tree so far seems to help though.
So, I've been using Head Shot 2, but I need some help in where to go. Many people in my guild say to go to Flushing Shot 1, then up to Flushing Shot 2. Others say to get the "Sniper" line for accuracy. I feel that I'll be getting Flushing 1, then using that up to Flushing 2.
Also, I have found my Laser Rifle to be worthless. (I got a 30% Speed Slice on it and I have a 30% Speed Powerup on it, making it 2.7, 95-452.) I use my Jawa Ion Rifle more because of the Stun Damage and speed (30% Speed Slice on that, and a 30% Speed Powerup making it 2.4 152-252) and my T21 (Got a 30% Damage slice and have a 30% Speed Powerup on it, making it 4.7 196-469). I found the Laser Rifle useless because of the low minimum damage. My T21 fires fast enough with my speed mod from getting the Combat tree, and my Ion Rifle is for up and close encounters. Can anyone help me find a use for the Laser Rifle?
I'll help you out,first off you'll need to do the sniping tree,try to grind combat xp to get to 0 0 0 3 then you'll be unaccurate but the speed will make up for it,next up go to dantooien and go to the mining outpost,get into a group and pick up savage quenker missions,because you're in a group you'll gte more spawns so you have to be prepared,get buffed and wear armour,go up to the lair and just shoot,you'll get 50k xp a lair and will level up prettty fast,after getting the head shot 3 get mind,focus and willpower buffs and use it on the quenkers you can take them out in 3 shots and it willo be very easy,then go for the rest of the sniping tree,once you finish it do the counter snipign and concealment lastly,with this technique i mastered rifleman in just over a month
GOOD LUCK!!
I'm NOT a grinder (took me 3 month to master CH, and I started in november -pre patch, 1 month for fencer etc...)
and I got like 1121 in 3 or 4 days, once you get to use the drx6b (xx2x) just go to dathomir, join a group and go kill enraged rancors, around 4kxp/kill if you do well.
try to level pistoleer it's WAY longer
If you read the note: I already have Flurry Shot 2! I saved up Combat XP from Teras Kasi Master, and used it in Rifleman. Thanks for the other info though!

- buy a dxr rifle
- hunt enraged rancors hunt dath
- the xp flies
the initial grind for rifleman is terrible. you are slow and innacurate and with specials that suck.
Now that ive climbed the tree a little, it gets very easy and 4 days seemslike a bit long for a serious grinder. 2 full days or 3 if you take breaks/eat/sleep....
Now do this....
Grind to 0030, raising XXX0 whenever you have the xo to do so. Then grind to 2032 ( you should have had the xo to get to 0002 at least ) this way you will have a nice accuracy modifier and a AOE attack that is fast and hits for sweet dmg.
Make sure you have a dx-6b with a good speed slice. My one with a speed power up is 3.0 and have dmg of 170-360 approx.
Now, go to Imp outpost on Dant and roll some savage quenker missons ( 6.9k cash ). A good tip for the distance of the missions is to equip a uncertified weapon when you are rolling these. they will be 600m away almost all the time. Now approach the mission and get into a position where you can hit the 2 spawned Quenkers and the lair at the same time. Open up on the lair with Flushing shot 2 and by the time the next set of Quenkers spawn, the original 2 should be dead. If not just kite them back and forth through the line of the lair.
You will easy take out a lair in less than 3 mins and be able to complete a run of 2 in 10 mins. Make sure you are teamed with someone/something for optimium xp and you will fly through the rest of the prof with ease.
Hope this helps
some xp examples:
3.9k per quenker, average 5 quenkers per lair ( 1 baby ) + 3.5k for lair ( somethimes higher someotimes lower ) = 23 per lair
23x2 = 46 per run of 2 missions
46x6 = 276k per hour if you grind hard and fast
you can even get some speed powerups mine is 5.5 spd 454 max damage, 3.7 spd with powerup
hehe til I get my krayt one today 487 max dmg, 4.4 spd without powerup
