Rifleman Archive

Hi everybody. I finally did it : Master Ranger / Master Rifleman !!! (a long, long way to get it)

What I can say is "Fuc%$#g Hell ! That Rocks !!!"

For all people that are complaning about our profession, I want to say :

Yes, rifleman mastering is really hard to reach

Yes, rifleman is weak at novice level, and is not as efficient as many other combat's profession.

Yes, accuracy is not very good at novice leveland HAM cost make us take more time to wait until our HAM is up, than firing on critters

Yes, many special doesn't run and melee dmg is really boring (and i do not speak about warping ).

I knew all of this, but I still wanted to be rifleman. So I have read the Aldeon Tips'post and follow its rules.

I chose the best critters to get xp (Have fun with Bantha Matriarche and Gronda Patriarche).

Now, I currently be able to fire with an average of 500 dmg per seconds without specials and 1000 to 1500 dmg per seconds with special using a low quality T21 (64K Lair are really easy to destroy believe me).

I still have a question for other Master Rifleman :

Using my sliced T21 (69 mind cost) 8.2 speed, adding Hot Wired coupler of compensation, eating muon gold before fighting and all of my 3 pool decrease at a really fast speed because of the amazing rate of fire of my rifle. (my stats are : 800/375/400 800/600/450 875/600/500 and I am Bothan)

So I currently only use my slowest rifle, and try to avoid firing special for more than 30 secondes... switch to standart fire, then fire special again. Sometimes some friend of mine heal me to help me recover Health and Action Pool.

So, shall you please give me your best Tips for a Master Rifleman???

Get a well made dlt20a. Best workhorse rifle imho. With 585 focus (The ubese gloves look cool) a strafesshot2 eats 57 mind and manages 1500+ chatboxdamage with 30% damage slice (so without armor and resist mod).

I barely use the lasers, they just eat too much ham. Most time I use it for the mindshots.

For pvp get a jawa ion rifle (if the 2 named materials are good on your server). Stun damage might give you the edge over composite wearing guys.

If your Server has great Plumbum Iron, you should definately get an E11 Rifle. More friendly min damage than a laser.

Thank you for the tips
