posin shooting bowcaster(posins enemys when it hits them)

scatter rifle

rancor rifle (made to shoot rancor teeth)

huting rifle (shoots a net that slows down or can even stop a creature)

Umm none.


One question, how can you have a "primitive" gun that not only shoots exploding rounds but has homing capabilities??????? Nevermind I don't really care.

harpon


-Limited fire Knetic Rifle ala rocket launcher? not sure what you are getting at. The devs have said they wanted to keep Knetic damage to melees, hence the Tusken nerfing.

gungun rifle


-Gungan? I wasn't aware they had rifles. Or did you mean a Gun Gun rifle, as in one that shot bullets? See above about knetic damage.

posin shooting bowcaster(posins enemys when it hits them)


-I don't see a real need for this other than maybe a low-cost DXR6b that only wookiees can use.

scatter rifle


-AoE isn't an innate ability of a weapon, if I am understanding you right. Just use an AoE attack

rancor rifle (made to shoot rancor teeth)


-Knetic damage issue again, and rancors are overhunted as it is...and I dont see any implementation for ammo in game other than limited use weapons

huting rifle (shoots a net that slows down or can even stop a creature)


-Breaking into the realm of traps...leave that to the Rangers and Scouts.

wookie war bow (very primitive and very strong shoots an explosive bolts it would also have a new attack just for it) (homing bullit)


-Yeah it might look cool. But why only give wookiees rifle class weapons? or why keep on giving one race something?

In that case I will take an H&K SL-8.

Barret M99 .50cal Rifle.

but more into starwars theme, perhaps a form of "silenced" blaster/laser/ion rifle maybe even make it a weapon buff thats attached and would offer a chance that the target your shooting wont know who shot it.(dont know if the engine supports such though)

Actually there is such a rifle in the Star Wars Universe. It is called the nightsinger I think, could someone correct me on this? Basically it fires an invisible blast and it has a silencer so you can never tell where the shot came from.

I was thinking about maybe adding some new attacks with our rifles for melee defense as a new idea for rifles. Pistoleers get to "Pistol Whip" people. I was thinking we could get maybe a "Butt Stroke" attack or maybe bayonettes that we could attach? These would help out alot. I don't know about you guys, but when I get attacked in melee I die almost instanty. I feel one or both of these might be a good idea.

I was kidding by the way Fellas , I was just reminiscing on my Counter-Strike days.. hehe!


Personally I think all the Bowcaster needs to be made a Viable weapon is to give it AP1.. Then it'd be useful, or at least more than a showpieceas it currently is.
