Thread: New to Rifles and I have some questions
Ok, first of all would someone explain exactly how the speed mods work. Ive never quite figured these out. say I have a rifle with 8 speed and a +40 mod. What does that make my speed? And does using speicals slow it down?
Also, is a laser rifle the best to go with, or should I use a different one?
And what is the best complimenting profession? I can see a case for ranger, but does it really help since camo gets taken away when combat starts? I've also thought about commando to get some good close range combat skills. What about CH, to get pets to tank for me? Anyway, those are some simple stuff ive wondered about. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

I believe it'll work like this....
+40 mod= .4
.4x8 speed=3.2(The amount you speed up due to the mod)
Soooo, 8 Base speed - 3.2 Speed Mod= 1 shot every 4.8 seconds.
Specials do slow down you rate of fire. (See the 'Styles' sticky at the top of the page)
Go with a laser until Master or near-Master. Otherwise, the slow rate of fire will kill you.
As for a complimenting profession, my signature should give away a nice combo. Tons of Riflemen like 2-handed swords from what I hear. Personally, I'd like to see you go Commando- sounds like a fun combo ![]()
