Rifleman Archive

I have a T21, Spray Stick and a Laser Rifle. Usually I shoot at something from 60-64m away with the Laser Rifle using headshot2 until it charges me then I get up and go TKA on it.

What are some good tactics at novice and a few boxes beyond for hunting? Should I just mindshot1/peace and let it bleed to death or use supression fire or some other combo?

Also, I find the Laser Rifle to be more damaging to average mobs then the T21. I'm not sure what to do witht he spray stick. Any tips?

check the FAQs at the top. then do a search on each topic all of these have been answered multiples of times.

barb have you ever used the search function on the forums? it sucks, the faqs posted at the top are good but searching for info is next to helpless

Ok, I read some faq and now I know what to do when I have 4 or 5 boxes of Rfleman. Great. Now what do I do with novice Rifleman?

If you have snide comments to make, please reserve them for someone in your family. I'm just asking a simple question, the search function sucks, and some of you are **edit**.

By no means am I an expert on the subject, however I've just knocked out my first couple of boxes w/o spending too much time to do it...Here is what I did.....Got buffs from a doc...then headed to dant...equipped my t21 and grabbed piket missions...Just solo'd them....Using a nice Damage Slice and powered up T21 for the bleed shot and first couple head shots....make sure to peace after the bleed so the whole pack doesn't aggro you..cuz then your toast..clear away from the lair...i go about 90m away, again so the whole pack doesn't attack(at this point I pop a muon as well)...as long as you are far enough away, once the bleed hits the first tick, that piket and only that piket will come for you...I hit with one or two head shots with my slow but heavy hitting t21..then switch to a speed sliced and speed powered up t21 i have(3.4 spd after all that ) I just kite it a bit, try to keep my distance using HS2. And I was rarely getting incapped. Of course you could always bust out with some TKA moves when he gets close(i don't have that) It will seem slow at first, but you'll start to pick up the pace...especially when you get sniping 1..Stacking 2 bleed shots really helps move the process along. Right now I'm at 1-1-0-1 and this process is moving pretty smooth for me atm and I'm really knocking those pikets around. I'm using a pet as well now, but that is mainly for the CH xp...not needed to succeed & I actually only throw him in near the end to get one or two hits for the CH xp before the piket drops.

yeah i use it all the time. try the advanced mode and it works quite well if you use include and exclude boxes.
