Rifleman Archive

Oh man they really nerfed riflemen bad*sighs in disbelif*. I have been running faction point missions for

the last week or so and have been doing well with my laser rifle and t21 (on Rori at the rebel base). I

could take out an imp camp of 4 -5 with ease ussing my 48-76 percent composite ,51% psg and my 2.7

speed laser rifle (33 percent speed slice/ 31 percent speed mod) and with no pets. I have good rifle skills,

800 health, 600 action and 1100 mind.Now after the patch,I am lucky if i survive an easy fp mission, while

healing a few times with stim d's.

Before my speed maxed laser rifle would would flow with the shots nowI am waiting for it to fire while

getting pumeled by other laser fire. Not only thatI am doing considerably less dmg .

Seems like they broke armor as well or lowered its effectivness( prob just a bug), even one one of my psg's

had - stats to it .If i get warped on i am most likely dead with out a chance.

Please fix the riflemen class its really rediculous nerfing them again. Our rifles are already to low enough in

dmg and slow as hell.

sorry bout the extra posts hehe. I was trying to use the spacebar and didn't realize the submit post was highlighted so it got submitted a few times.

I think PvE armor is TOTALLY screwed in this game, try this:

see, not all of us gunfighters are idiots...some were learned real good like

yes i dont understnad what the **edit** is going on eitehr

white-con faction missions are now completely out of the question... yet thats all im getting now

The only thing I can add is that there has been some bugs reported regarding armor. I don't recall whether they have been addressed or not.

I'm with you guys...I can't even play like this...

I noticed this as well. All of my missions are unplayable solo. Rifleman damage has been reduced 25-33%.

As we all know, if you can't take down the aggro within 2-4 hits you are dead. As it stands currently it takes about 6 hits to kill a mob. I haven't been owned by blue mobs like this since Marksman Rifle 2.

I was running along, having no idea anything was amiss, and fired off a shot a a scykk, I used to be unable to do anything but one shot them, boy was i surprised when the little fella, still with half his mind pool....invited all his friends to kick my ass. I was shocked to say the least

Armor bugged= Yes

Damage nerf/speed nerf= Post Patch Paranoia

Hunted on Dath, Rori, and Lok all night and noticed no decrease in damage or speed. I have been a master for a long time now and would've have noticed any significant delays or damage reductions. While it could have been your server, there were no signs of these problems on Naritus.

I have been a Master Rifleman since mid July, and yes DMG is way down, dont know about speed, I didnt live long enough too notice. Myself and another Master Rifleman, got wasted several times. I think this is more too do with Resists, AR, and AP being reversed which someone already posted a very nice thread about in the General Discussion area yesturday. It is kind of shocking that, this isnt one of their top priorities, in my opinion, it should fall right under Server stability. But thats just my opinion, so take it how you will.

Also another bug we encountered was an AT-ST that Insta Healed itself every tick. A commando came by and saw us and all he could say was W T F! He helped us attack it, he busted out his Rocket Launcher (Very Cool looking) and attacked the AT-ST, I saw a number flash above the AT-ST's head of like 6k or so, 1-2seconds later it was full health again. We finally killed it but it was all due too the Flame DoT on the Commando's flamethrower, hehe 19200, wounds. Its whole bar was black, was funny.

This patch right now is, its almost unplayable, if you want too craft stuff I guess your OK.

What ever I played this morning for a lil bit and I was able to take out people with ease. I didnt notice a change in speed. And the damage I was doing was right around the same as always. I'm imp so I dunno about the AT-ST thing but I do know that my mind bleeds work great on Rebs
