Thread: My new template..preping for post patch.
This is in the event that a 3 second cap is impossed, thus (imo) making Master Rifleman unnecessary. It also hinges upon "Eye Shot" being left in the BH pistol specialization line.
Master Scout
Master Marksman
Bounty Hunter 0,0,4,0
Creature Handler 3,2,0,0 (for Graul Mauler)
Rifleman 4,0,0,4
Pistoleer 0,2,0,0
Mauler to tank fo me, use my Mind bleeds and Shots til melee range, use Pistol (either DX-2 or Scatter) and finish target up with eyeshot. I believe that this would work in both PvP and PvE. It gets the rifle out of our hands, eliminating the 2.5% melee modifier (instadeath) and also (eyeshot) attacks our main Pool target (mind), (since at this timethe "Eyeshot" skilluses action, this is benificial to us).
We also have access to LLC.
The mods on this set up are:
Rifle Speed: +70
Rifle Accuracy: +92
Rifle Aiming +20
Pistol Accuracy +130
Pistol Speed +85
Pistol Aiming +6
Pistol Accuracy while moving +10
General Ranged Aiming +30
Ranged Defense +17
Melee Defense +22
It makes us a master of none, but I believe that it makes up for a well rounded Fighter, of course it derails me from my primary goal of Rifleman/Doctor. I'm simply tired of being rocked in PvP by 800+ damage pistols every second.
Comments/Critisism <sp> welcome.

I expect a mind bleed nerf soon.
Nah. They will nerf all bleeds/DoT effects. It will be like "no bleed can do more than 2000 damage(pre damage reduction)"
And, of course, it will royally screw rifleman and barely phase anyone else, just like all SoE changes have.
We already know "Eyeshot" is being moved to BH Master, but they're evidently getting some other mindshot to replace it. In theory it won't be as powerful as Eyeshot, but in practice I bet it will still kick the shet out of Mindshot3 just because it will fire 3 times to our 1.
Anyway, I'd say that's a good template. If nothing else, you'll need those BH pistol skills in order to quickly warning shot other people's pets.
At 3 seconds per shot, riflemen would be warning anything.
F all that, im goin doc for the poisons and non tef gaining kills.
why shouldnt i?
Part of what made Eyeshot so powerful was the blind it applied to the target. I'm hoping they remove the blind from the new not so powerful Eyeshot.
