Rifleman Archive

I just reached 4 4 4 3 as a rifleman. I had planned on getting the last 40k of combat xp off snorbals till they decided to speed them up this patch.

I need some help, what are some good creatures that I can kite and still be worth decent xp.


And yes I have loads of grenades

Erm graul mauler and flushing shot 2 on 8 pikets at a time on dant works well for me, (cant believe i sold out and went CH!) But i earnt more xp this way in a day then in a month without a graul. Sad but true.

Im a master cm after the patch im getting 1k combat xp for each thing i use poison on. (I'll be a soilder befor any of the other titles) =)

Is this grenade-thingie a possibilty even for noncommandos ? I Think I have the cert for c-12 or c-22 grenades, but will the combat-xp be that significant ?

non-commandos can use c-12s

if you do it properly you can switch the XP you gain per kill

ie. 3425 rifle xp and 342 combat xp will turn into 3425 combat xp and 342 rifle xp

how to do it:

try to single out a target and work one at a time (pikets)

stack the mind bleeds ( /mindshot1 ; /mindshot2 with a good dmg sliced laser rifle and you should be bleeding in the 1000-3000 range)

unequip rifle and run in, toss a grenade and run out when attacked OR equip rifle again (spraystick or speed sliced e11/dlt20a)-suppression fire or /warningshot ; /peace ( until the target starts to runaway, then follow it and do this combo again when it turns to attackonce again ) the safest way to do this. ( you can juggle / yo-yo 4 no prob when perfected)

make sure that the grenade does the most damage other than the bleeds....other wise you will not get the fullswitch of xp.

if you do use suppression fire or the warningshot peace combo, you may need to throw another grenade to make sure the grenades did the most regular damage.

from the looks of it now youll need to fire off a headshot to finish the mind death of your target, i recommend usuing a really low dmg rifle and the weakest headshot so it doesnt mess up the grenade combat xp switch.

hopefully this tactic still works post patches, havent had to do it for a while now (master sharpshooter)

May the force be with you

One simple way buy yourself a crate or two of granades with equal amounts of grenade powerups and do some group hunting and be a grenader for a day or two.
