Rifleman Archive

I made Master Rifleman last night....pretty decent

As the first master on gorath .. I gotta say .. THIS RULES

All these AOE attacks ROCK

I can walk near a lair .. open fire and everything within the radius is NO MORE

I feel like i'm launching a nuke lol . it's awesome

And completely retarded. The Devs need to:

1. Make it so conceal shot is a pre-attack that can be used with any rifle attack (except AOE)
2. Give us precision HAM shots either up a branch or all at once at master rifleman
3. Fix block
4. Turn melee defence into something useful.
5. GET RID OF THE AOE ATTACKS AND GIVE US SOMETHING THAT MAKES US SNIPERS!!!

It's superb isn't it, I'm a long range killing machine!

Ive gotta go with Tek here...Sure its nice, but I dont feel like a Sniper when I kill 5 things with one shot lol.

The extreme speed bonuses also go against the sniper thing...maybe we can change some of those to Rifle Damage? I dunno just a thought...

They've already said they don't want us doing the damage the T21 was doing in 1 hit. They offered us MORE speed on the T21 at the expense of damage. I don't think the Devs get the whole sniper thing.

So the people that use the +20 melee defense to enhance their template should get boned because YOU dont like the idea that rifleman has +20 melee defense?

Get rid of the AE? That is our defining ability. I dont give a rats a$$ that it isnt what you want the definetion of the profession to be.

Was I the only one that looked at the Rifleman tree and then made a decission on the profession. I picked this profession for the skills YOU want to change.

Oh and Tek why dont you actually make MASTER before spouting off about the Devs. Reason this game is getting all dorked up is because of people like yourself with NO real experience crying about skills you have no clue about.

what does AOE stand for? what attacks r u using?

Area Attack. We get Strafe Shot 2 at Master. Think of Headshot 3, little more damage, and it hits everyone in the area of effect of the attack.

Its cone damage, the rifles cone is fairly big, compared to the pistol cone, I have yet to see a carbine cone, becuase well, not many of them exist.

With all the rifle speed bonuses, can you master riflemen fire the T21 about once per second?

tael.

Yes we can fire every second or so. This is exactly why the token speed reduction as "compensation" for less damage was actually no compensation at all. Lets see how much the devs can screw riflemen. Yay!

It was not the master riflemen that needed the help in the first place, it was those below master, the speed increase helps there. Below master I would say rifleman is a fare bit underpowered. After master we are overpowered.
