Thread: 125k Grind to Rifleman.

I don't think you need to group to get that much xp.
I'm 1 1 1 1 and I get about 3300 from pikets. Go kill those.

I do get good experience from these BUT it takes me 20 minutes to kill one. Overall, thats not a very good xp/time ratio. I can get maybe one or 2 head shots in, which take one of them to half maybe. Then it closes the distance and I spend the next 19 minutes trying to hit the dam thing. If I switch to spraystick, the damage is so low and I still miss 8 out of10 times, plus all that headshotting went to waste because at point blank I miss too much to use specials, therefore I end up hitting the other bars. Am I missing something?
Does aim even help that much at close range? I'm in the same position (just got Rifle IV) and I have the exact same issue; I mask scent and do aim/headshot2 and get 3 shots off that way, then they rush in and I can't hit squat at melee range. I just got a spraystick so we'll see how much that helps.
How exactly does mask scent work regarding when you're discovered? Is it a matter of time, or a matter of number of shots? If I didn't aim, would I get 6 shots instead of 3?
How I did the grind:
Pulled out Speed sliced Laser Rifle, got buffs, brandy, muon gold, put on 80% kinetic compositearmor (left of helmet)put a 33% speed powerup on Laser Rifle, Laser Rifle speed was 2.7 after power up and slice, and spammed /headshot2. and stood up, did /intimadate1, and kneeled down and did more /headshot2 spam
And killed everything that looked easy enough that I could getmy rifle on... and oh... it was easy (must have been my defense from beingMaster Commando, and the full defense line of TKA)

Use warning shot every now and then.. it'll make them run away from you so you get a better ranged shot.
Also if you have supprsion fire use that..
So shoot 3 times, then your fourth is suppresion fire.. if it hits, then you get 2 more free shots from that range.
