Rifleman Archive

1) As of right now, I dont think you need to worry about getting a pistol/carbine for close quarters. In the future? who knows. That shouldn't stop you from getting skills in bh/carbs/pistols/commando though as..
2) Skills cross over, so you can use any ranged skill with any ranged weapon

Just stand up, use firearm strike and run back. There is an accuracy mod for ranges under 50 and more so for under 35 but it's not worht switching unless you are also a Carbineer or Pistoleer, because if you drop your rifle you'll also loose the Rifle Def mods.

Thanks for the info. Is there a web site that explains the accuracy penelties and ranges of the different weapon types?

Not that I know of.

Well once publish 19 comes out you can not shoot with any rifleman skills beneath 35 meters. So there will soon be a min distance. Means if a mob breaks 35 meters you are toast. PvP someone sees a rifle they burst run you are toast. In otherwords dead profession as they have made us have too much agro to keep things off of us and we can not save ourselves when they get close.

Thanks for the profession nerf there Devs.

I'm actually using the Gammorian Battle Axe given for the Jabba Theme Park.

25% Wound just an impressive number.

They should give out respec tickets whenever they change a profession to all those that have skills in that profession tree.

This "Publish 19" post you refer to was a joke. Please stop spreading it around.

Geez, its a wonder what people will believe if you use the right colored text.
