Hey guys, I'm looking for some help. I'm currently a TKM/Master Doctor. Now, I do a lot of PvE. And when I mean a lot, I really mean it. Sure I enjoy PvP, but I do PvE much more often.


Theres many things that I do NOT like about TKM:


1.) Kinetic Damage: **On guild hunts, on Nightsisters, Krayts, Tuskens (Warlords, Observers especially) and other tough mobs. Also when I do PvP, tell me what decent PvPer doesn't wear 80% Kinetic Armor. So I'm worthless there as well (and they Intimidate me also).
2.) Light AP only: I can't stand this on those tougher, Medium and Heavy Armor mobs. I'd love to have the ability to whip out a Laser Rifle for Medium or a T21 for Heavy.

3.) I have a disadvantage with being a melee profession when I do not have Scout. On Dathomir, I can't climb up the hills to the creatures to smack it. I'd love to just blast away at it from 64m.


There are more things but I'm not going to list them right now.


Things that I would love about Rifleman:


1.) Stun Damage on the Jawa: I'd love to hit the weakness on most mobs.

2.) Heavy Armor Piercing on the T21: Armor wouldn't be a problem!

3.) AOE Attacks that work! Unarmed Spin Attack 2 does 900 damage. I'm a Master and I have the 3rd best Vibroknucklers on the server, and I still can't do over 900-1100 with it. I'd love to do 2000-3000 with Flushing Shot 2/Flurry Shot 2.

4.) Sniper Shot: Ranged DB on players. =)

5.) Mind Hits. Who doesn't like to smack someones mind? (Ok, TK has one too. Doesn't work well, but you can do it.)


Theres more but I'm not going to list them now.


Well, can you guys help? I was going to hit the **SURRENDER** button on Master Teras Kasi last night.


Please read this though:


From playing as a Teras Kasi, I have capped on Combat XP at 300k. That means once I get Novice I can go straight to Flurry Shot 2 and be 35k into level 4 of the Combat Tree. So, I get most of the speed bonus right off the bat, and I can use the AOE on Flurry Shot 2 on lairs/mobs to take them out fast, and get up to Flushing Shot 2 or Head Shot 3. How does that sound?


Remember! I'm a Master Doctor so I already have my stats at 400/400/400/400/400/400/1000/1100/900, and I can buff myself!

seems a good plan, with the speed bonus from combat 3, you'd be fine for a while, buffed, use flurry shot 2 on decent level lairs (either in a large group or with an at-st) even normal quenkers, though they pay 5k, rake in xp... 3.1k per quenker, no deathblow, 4k ham and 5 per spawn, 2 spawns with 1 set of guards, another 5k for the lair... you'll rake in the xp... work up the sniping tree first, just for the accuracy, then counter-sniping, finally concealment.


have fun!

TKM Hate list


1-Ya but Nightsister Elders are vulnerable to Kenetic(Not a problem if youwant toconceal shot em for 15 minutes without missing twice)


2-Ya thats a problem.


3-Bah, Speeder Bikes make scout skills worthless.


Rifleman Likes


1-Ya armor is messed up aint it? 8 Diffrent Damage types and stun is the only one that matters


2-No and yes, Stun verse a stun vulnerable armor is always better then the T-21 but if they have stun layering you might want to use the T-21.


3-Yup our AOE Damage is bitchin.


4-Well you were a melee so it's not really that big a change for ya, but yes it's a slight advantage verse other ranged professions.


5-The Dev's said next patch Mind won't be special. I'm guessing it will be Stim healable so mind damage might not matter soon.




With the current state of the Game(Uber Robocop armor thats only flaw is stun, Buffs that make damage against you pointless and Specials cost nothing, and Mind damge that is unhealable) Yes I would go rifleman.

CM's are like nukes. You have them just incase you need them, but as soon as you start using yours the other guys start using theirs and everything goes to hell-PyschoticChipmunk -The First line of the Riflenomican.
