Well with the new 75% reduction in damage in PvP ive realized their are only 2 viable paths left in this game: either delete my rifleman and create a BH dabbling pistoleer, or quit.


The only chance i ever have of winning in PvP is if i can get a one shot kill. Pistoleers can do 3-4 times the damage per second we can. Bounty hunters with eyeshot and acc/speed branches of pistoleer can do 10 times the damage per second.


With 75% less damage the ONLY thing that barely kept riflemen's head above water is being taken away.



  • Rifleman have the worst damage per second of any combat class (besides commando)

  • Rifleman have 80% of their skill tree invested in skills that are either broken or suck completely

  • Rifleman do not have knockdown (the only way to counter a BH/pistoleer)

  • Rifleman's top weapon is broken with no word from the devs on it being fixed.

Screw it. It doesnt even look like were going to get fixed any time soon either. I probly shodnt even bother bitching about it because as our esteemed corospondent says: "At least your not a commando"


Yeah.. thats the only positive thing I can see when i look at what my class is becoming: "better than a commando". Woopdie f*king doo.


Adios guys.

Personally i think that it would be better to stick with your rifleman buddy because sooner or later our skills will be fixed along with our guns. Not only that but as some one said they are nerfing knockdown and such with pistols.

I think the ship may have a hole in it but hopefully a plug is coming soon.

i think we will have a better chance now since they are nerfing pistol accuracy and knockdown.
