Since mastering TKA, I have gone back to my originaly planned profession of Rifles, and am about to get back on the exp treadmill.


I went out today and picked myself up a pile of OK rifles, nothing special, something to level with, and got myself a Master Smuggler with the patience to sit while I juggle my bank deposit box and inventory round to get all my goodies sorted (anyone loots a pack with more than 50 storage spaces, I'll sell my soul for it ), and got some nice damage slices, and threw on some powerups.


I basically now have decent a set of every rifle that is available for me to use at Rifleman 3-1-1-4, the problem is, I don't really know what they all do.


Obviously some hit for different types of damage, have different speeds, different HAM costs etc, but I was wondering if anyone could give me a rundown on the strenths and weaknesses of each rifle, and what I should be using them for.


If there are any threads allready dealing with this, sorry for repeating the question, but I haven't found them myself.


Yet.

If no one has answered this better by noonish tomorrow, I'll go through each rifle I can, but since it's late I'll tell you this...

The bigger the better, size does matter.

only rifles that are worthwhile are jawa, T21, dxr6b, laser


Jawa currently the preferred PVP rifle prety worthless for anything else.


T21 lord and master of PVE


DXR6b can be useful in PVP and PVE if the target is weak vs acid and very strong vs energy


Laser typically used for leveling in the early stageseasy to mod with krayt tissue and its cheap construction and purchase price allows use of powerups its the poorbeing's T21 when heavily modded. it is basically the AK47 of SWG

Yeah, i agree with the guy above me, but I am considerin picking up the cold-damage rifle, just in case i meet one of those 100% resis to energy AND acid mobs.


DX6 is kinda like a luxury item, i try not to use the only one i have


spraystick is not bad to have either but since u r fairly high on the tree, i don't think u need it
