Rifleman Archive

I toyed with the idea of giving up my rifle skills before i payed out big bucks for novice training and a t-21....but i decided i dont want to be another cookie cutter BH/pistoleer, and would rather stick with what i wanted to be.

So, i got my novice rifleman training. Got my t21 sliced and powered up. Threw it in the bank since my laser seems to work better at the moment. But anyways....

1.) Im wondering what kind of armor ya'll use for hunting creatures. The one thread on the valcyn forum suggests a combo of tantel and ubese for rifleman.

2.)Im wondering what a good stat setup is for a zabrak? Im mainly looking to solo as much as i can, since 99% of my PA uses pistols, so i hardly get any exp when we're out hunting.

3.)Im thinking of getting sniper I first, but then what is the best route to go through the trees that need rifle exp? I almost have enough exp for ranged support IV in marksman, but am i better off keepin it for the first box in rifle? combat exp seems to be a bitch to get.

4.) Is there a decent pet to use for a rifleman that is a non-CH? I read that the pet will give you an exp bonus, if this is true, what would be a good pet to pickup?

Anyways, appreciate any help i can get.

I don't use any Armor for hunting, I find it's more trouble than it's worth.. Below are some links to my trophy pics : )

Searching the univers for the ultimat hunt!.. : )

Rifleman burn through mind very fast. You need to get your mind stats as high as possible.

I have mine set up at

H 900, 300, 300

A 900, 300, 300

M 1000, 500, 900

If you have good medic skills or are always grouped with a medic you can get away with the low secondary stats for action and health. I am a Zabrak and I use no armor because most of the time i get one shot killed anyway and the encumbrance makes the mind drain even worse. The route i took was took sniping to tier 2. btw headshot3 isnt that great. then took countersniping to tier 3. the AOE attacks are nice. Can't wait to get the third tier in special abilities for the AOE dizzy attack
