1) current rifle speed cap? i here +7 just looking fora confirm or not on this. and that puts it at 1 second speed right?

2) m. rifle + m. doc= dead against elders(or at least any adds)?

3) general loot question, what mobs are on the exceptional table? i know elders, but i recall reading a post from someone who claimed to have looted an exceptional ph off one of the tuskens in the place where tusken king is. so is it that only elders drop exceptional, or that anything could POSSIBLY drop one, just the percentage is so unimaginally horrible that it has happened next to never.

4) when fighting elders as a master doc/m. rifle best bet would be sneak shot right?

5) ok bleeds stack, at least mind 1 mind 2 right? ok, if you where to switch weapons and mind 1 mind 2 again, would that give the target a total of 4 bleeds or do just the ones that do the most damage tick?

6) krayts, i've been up to the graveyard so much and havent ever seen one other than the one i spawned when i was getting my scythe schem. do they only spawn at server reset then get murdered once and are gone all day or should i not just go to the graveyard poi?

7) ...crap. i fizzled out. i had more. i'll be back when i recall them.

1) the rifle speed cap is effectively +7


2/3/4)not sure


5) mind 1 and 2 do seem to stack but switching weapons does not allow more bleeds.


6) krayt's spawn throughout the day. i have made krayts spawn a few times by killing everything that spawned in the graveyard, normally after about 1 1/2 hours krayts will spawn (forces the spawns to change mobs, 1 giant canyon and 1 juvi should spawn)

I am master doc/rifleman and just so happen to spend a heck of a lot of time with the elder sistas. I have conceiled many elders and with a speed pu on an awesome T21 I can accomplish this in 15-30 mins. That is providing she doesnt see me. There are many times that I have been spotted and most of the time when this happens I die. LOL. But this is how I look at it, what is the worse that can happen to you when you die. You have to sit through another mind buff session. Big whoop! I make sure I am insured, my inventory is emptied of things that can decay if I do die and I head on back out for another shot.


I have looted some of the most awesome dot weapons, CA and AA's, and crystals from them so I will continue to fight the wicked sistas to earn my way through this game. No more buffing sessions with arsholes, I chose to loot and sell and trust me I have less grief with the elders then some of the players I have buffed.


I am not for sure what you meant by sneak shot. I actually had someone tell me the other day that his buddy would use cover when going after elders. I dont use anything other then conceil when I am alone on an elder but if I am in a group I can use any of the shots and do alot of damage. One shot that I find to be effective is the flushing2 shot. That is if Im in a group and not hiding like a coward from them..lol


I don't know if my info will help you or not. All I can suggest is that you take the time to hunt for the most awesome T21 with a damage slice on it, stick a speed pu on it and give it your best shot. I read the rifle board once and someone suggested this on there and I dropped my dmg pu's and slapped a speed pu on and it seemed to work alot better. I did not notice the difference in the damage I was doing to an elder and I found that it goes alot faster this way. With this pu I have a speed of 4.9 on my T21's.

correct

2) m. rifle + m. doc= dead against elders(or at least any adds)?


no idea

NS, Krayts, Rancor, Tuskans (chief and up), DWB, Pretty much any NPC on a high level Planet, Corvette Crews, dark jedi masters, fs etc

4) when fighting elders as a master doc/m. rifle best bet would be sneak shot right?


conceal shot helps yes

5) ok bleeds stack, at least mind 1 mind 2 right? ok, if you where to switch weapons and mind 1 mind 2 again, would that give the target a total of 4 bleeds or do just the ones that do the most damage tick?


bleeds may or may not stack, To lay on the bleed use your best attack, multiple weapons do not land multiple bleeds



6) krayts, i've been up to the graveyard so much and havent ever seen one other than the one i spawned when i was getting my scythe schem. do they only spawn at server reset then get murdered once and are gone all day or should i not just go to the graveyard poi?


no they do spawn all day - best is to group with a ranger and have them help you find them.

7) ...crap. i fizzled out. i had more. i'll be back when i recall them.
