I'm currently slowly working my way up through the ranks and beingstill fairly new to this game I'd like to find out if there have been any posts detailing whether different rifles have better effects on certain creatures?
If anyone can help me out I'd very much appreciate it.

My main weapon is a T21 with a damage slice and speed power up. Secondary weapon is the DXR-6b Disruptor for the high accuracy (I can have +50 when standing and target is 54m away) damage sliced, and acid damage. My in close weapon is a Spraystick unsliced. My Spraystick has the damage range and fire rate of a mid to high level pistol, and i don't have -70 accuracy at melee range.

I agree with Exile, although for starting, and until you get abilities 3, get 4-5 dmamge slice lasers around 450 max damage or up, and overcharge shot your way up the sniping tree then head your way to Flushingshot2 in the countersniping tree, That shot is an AoE, with a dizzy effect. that shot alone will at least double your xp intake. Rifleman is a hard starting profession to master. I've mastered it twice. The first time it took me 3 months to master, the second time when I had cbxps saved up, it took me a week, just becase as soon as I hit novice rifleman, I was able to train up to abilities 3 from the get go. Good Luck.

I have found it hard to find a really good rifle but I have to say if you can find a T21 that has 410 max damage and then get a damage slice you should be in great shape. I just staerted the rilfe tree amlost got the first one done. I also found out if you do to Dat at the outpost and join a VH hunting party or any hunting party that has more then 3 you can get great XP and money. lets face it our weapons are not cheap.I went form having 3k to 60k in two days and gaining more then 200k of xp in that twodays of hunting. Its a great way but make sure you buff and have lots and lots of moun gold on hand it can get hairy. Feel free to /tell me if your on bloodfin and i will go hunting.

Thanks for the tips, I've been looking for a T21 rifle but haven't found one yet so I'm having to stick to my slicedlaser rifle. Thanks once again.
