Rifleman Archive

Was wonderin I'm a 1/0/0/1 rifleman working his way to master.

APC ATST pet? no way in hell.

A NPC ATST with 1 hour of conceal shot? sure

10-15 minuts max, muon cuts down the time. i did it as soon as i got conceal shot

by the way, FP and XP both suck concidering how freeking hard they are : P only good for braging rights.

Had a master with a great T-21 post here a few days ago saying that with wicked buffs and spice, he has had victory when standing under it and firing up. But, did not sound like it worked all the time.... Have to give it a try, hehe.

Yes a Master Rifleman can take out a player ATST.....

He killed the owner, killed the ATST, then came to IMP Outpost and killed 5 players using strafe shot...including a BH and Master Commando

Why would you want to take out an at st? they are so purty and nice. They are good decorations to have, considering you can't use the for anything else.

Your question did not really get answered. You asked if a 1 0 0 1 Rifleman could. I think the answer is a resounding NO. At that point, you have only Flurryshot1, Strafeshot1, and Mindshot2 from Rifleman. Mindshot is a bleed, and bleeds cannot affect an ATST. Flurryshot does reasonable damage (actually somewhat the same damage as concealshot), but dizzy only works if you can get a posture change, and you cannot get a posture change and knockdown on an ATST, so you would just be using it for the higher than normal shot damage. Granted Concealshot is a little slower, but it takes 15 - 20 minutes of almost constant shooting with Concealshot to take one out (only breaking fora muon gold downer since it only lasts 10 minutes). But let us say that you could, firing Strafeshot1 or Flurryshot1, do enough damage in 10 minutes to take out the ATST. Without the benefit of concealment from concealshot, that would mean that you would have to stand there for 10 minutes taking a pounding from an ATST while you tried to kill it. It would take some pretty awesome buffs to withstand that kind of pounding.

So, No, I do not believe it is possible to do solo an ATST at 1 0 0 1. But make that x 1 x x, and you certainly can, if the ATST is by itself or only has NPCs with it and you do not get detected. However, be prepared to bring a lunch and some muon gold with you. You are going to need to go through a couple of the muons before it goes down. And as indicated elsewhere, do not expect the rewards to equal to the amount of work it will take. You get about 4400 Rifle XP for killing them, and a paultry number of FP. But, somehow,that has not stopped me from killing 3 of them solo. heheh.

I can survive for thirty seconds against a triplet of pet ones. Had my friend pull his and duel me so I could find out.

Lotta"an AT-ST misses you!"in that thar combat log...

i soloed an PC atst, he was dumb and left it sitting there, i have no idea where he was but i popped some muon and consealed it to death, thing never had a clue and his owner still doesnt know it was me

ya think i should tell him what happened

Also, from what we know now, conceal shot will be nerfed in the next patch. So the answer would be: Yes, if you are truly bored and have too much time, but only till they NERF the shot they only FIXED in the last patch.

i think it is silly removing something that they just now fixed /sigh

i find conceal shot a valuable tool for taming. i can remove the parents and leave just the baby. i dont want a shot that draws the target to me?!?!??! that is idiotic i want that thing as far away as possible. this change will truly make the concealment line completely useless once again.

I've taken out boith PC and NPC atst with ease. I have screen shots to prove. And yes it was solo no pets, pets are for gimps and with a laser rifle, as we dont have t-21 on tarq.
