Rifleman Archive

I was under the impression that we got a 2.5 melee damage placed on us because rifleman could 1 shot kill or almost 1 shot kill someone. So, if the enemy survived the 1st round then they had an equal chance to kill us. With the 75% damage reduction they removed the 1 shot kill from the rifleman! they should remove the 2.5 melee damage as well.


Oh, And in a PvE part of the game where 90% of the mobs are melee and there is NO WAY IN HELL you can 1 shot them, This 2.5 damage is Idiotic and lame. I die so much that Bestine has a Cloning facility named after me!

Final Note:
Im not a quiter and have never switched weapons based on which ones where more uber at the time in any MMORG I have ever played. But im about 1 day away from giving up on the rifle.

IMO, all of the ranged weapons should have a 2x damage penalty. It should be the same for pistols, carbines and rifles.

There's no sense in giving rifles such a huge penalty while pistols (which do more damage) have a tiny penalty.

They need the penalty to give melee a reason to exist, but the current system just pushes everyone into pistols.

a agree. Im almost a master doc and I cant heal myself. Im wearing padded armor that has been sliced I die in one hit from a mob.

example: right now my friends want to hunt in Dantoine. But the mobs hit me for 1100 pts damage and my armor takes 450 of the damage. Thats a total of 1550 pts of damage!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well just across the field. I see BH and Pistol users soloing the same mobs.

If that isnt unfair then what is......................................



But I do have options:
If things dont change by tomorrow I will no longer be a rifleman. Im going pistol so I can have some fun. This is crazy.
