Im about to take up this profession and would like a little clarification if you dont mind.

(A) I want to become a Master Riflman without having to master Marskman. If I dont master Marskman I will be at a loss for speed at Master Rifleman. I therefore need Rifleman speed attachments to a value of +7 to make up for the fact that I havent mastered marksman. Is my thinking here correct?

(B) I currently have +6 Rifle Speed. If I am correct above, would another +1 make alot of difference to my firing speeds?

Thanks alot for your help.

It depends on your rifle and the special you are using. At Master alone, using a typical 7 second T21, Strafeshot2 will take 2.45 seconds per shot. To reach the speed cap with Strafeshot2 at Master only, you would need a rifle with a speed of 2.9 (obviously, no T21 will do that).

At +96, you would be able to speed cap with Strafeshot2 with that T21. In fact, you would be able to speed cap with Strafeshot2 (and, therefore, any of our specials) with a rifle speed of 7.1 or less. Therefore, you would only need more speed tapes if you had a slower rifle than 7.1 seconds.

At master rifleman you have 90riflespeed, 100is max. So if you dont got master marksman you need +10speed attachement if you want it maxed, with master marksman you get +5rifle speed so you only need a +5attachment to max the speed.

yes you definately get the AP bonus. the only time you dont get the AP bonus on a T21 is when the target is vulnerable to energy.

Unarmored is the same as vulnerable, unless they have resists. MOBs can have AR0 and still have resists to damage types. Players have no resists without armor on. Watch the floaty damage and see.

Laser or a nice Geo Rifle for PVP against unarmored, JIR for armored opponents, unless they have stun layers. Then it is worth busting out the T-21 because of the reduced Energy effectiveness.

And when the embers cool
None will be left standing.
