Rifleman Archive

A quick question, I had my heart set ona Creature Handler with Rifleman skills, since I first new about the game. Though I now realise that rifles do mostly mind damage, I am guessing creatures do mainly Health damage??

I was also planning on becoming a master rifleman and ch but i was wondering how i should migrate my stats, also I am a wookie so i have a lot of stats, any suggestions would be much appreciated.

CH/Rifle is my current build.

I use my pet to sit there and take hits while I burn down the target's mind pool.

The only major issue I have with the combo is that my rifle has an effective range of 60m, and you don't get CH XP unless you are within 35m. So, you have to either live with no CH XP sometimes, or get up and run close towards the end of the fight.

Or, just realize that you still have 90% accuracy from 15m while kneeling and just sit close.

In the next big patch, early next week, supposedly, the distance you are from the creature will no longer be a problem.

I am planning on going this route as well. I want to get Master Rifleman and Master CH and maybe Master Scout if I have the skill points left.

I plan on finding the biggest HAM, lowest hitting creature out there.

That way, I tell Meatshield the wonderpet to "Take it for the Team" and sit back with my headshots/mindshots doing the majority of the damage. I think this tactic will work pretty well. If Meatshield the wonderpet gets into trouble I can fire off a warningshot and start yo yo'ing the mob.

Just my thoughts.
