I just mastered Rifleman today and was trying some pvp. Now my background consist of master commando so Im used to walking up to a guy and taking down half his hams. I am using a Jawa ion rifle speed 4.7 and max damage of 292. Now I was spamming headshot3 on some guys and hitting them for like 300 damage each shot. Is that normal. Now I also have a T-21 with a speed of 7.0 and max damage of 509. When I switched to that I was doing the same amount of damage. Now I understand thats because the dude didnt have a stun helmet he probally had a suit with a 60% base and thats why the damage was the same. The question is is it normal to be dealing 300 damage to the mind with one shot or is that low? I'm new to rifleman I always remeber getting owned by a rifleman rather quickly. What is the speed cap for a master rifleman with 90 rifle speed ?


Any help would be nice thanks!!

Use this to determine your rifle speed:


Rifle speed equation: Weapon Speed * Delay Modifier * (100 - Rifle Speed) / 100


When you get to 1.0 or less, you've hit the cap. You cannot fire faster than 1 shot per second. To fire SS2 with a T-21, you'll need ~+7 in rifle speed tapes. Using a Jawa Ion Rifle and HS3, it'll be a bit less.


300 Mind damage per shot in PvP sounds good to me. 1100 Mind + Musician/Dancer buffs + Muon + Food/Drink + PowerBoost= 3500+ Mind. That is about the maximum I think you'll have to expect to deal with. Most of the time, it should be significantly less. Assuming the worst situation, you'll need 12 shots (12 seconds if firing at speed cap)to take your opponent down. However, that doesn't take into account Focus (if they are using Mind for specials) and Willpower (which hopefully doesn't regen the Mind as fast/faster than you take it out).


For the most Mind damage per shot, you'll need a good Jawa Ion Rifle sliced for damage (35% would be nice) and a 16%min/33% max damage power-up. This will cause your rifle to wear out fast however, so use power-ups only if you have an opponent with heavy Mind migration.
