Rifleman Archive

Hello all,

Finished the Hutt missions that start in the back of the moenia cantina, go to coronet and then back to moenia. Received what I thought to be the coolest NPC given gun ever, the Tusken King Rifle.

Now, when I Equip this kinetic damage gun it says that I am not qualified, I am a master sharpshooter, come on now. Is this a bug?

Next question, has this gun always been kinetic and are all the new Tuskens kinetic now? Or is just this gun? My older player made tusken is still energy.

Last question. I went to Darklighter, because I have the gun the guard gave me 2 missions and then I was alowed to talk to Darklighter. So far he has not re-claimed his gun, if I keep working with him will I lose the gun? I know I need to do this to get the krayt skull but I think I would prefer to have the gun if I have to sacrifice it.

Thanks, anyone who has finished this quest please help me, thanks again.

Tusken Rifles used to be Kinetic Damage, they were changed to Energy awhile back. I would guess SOE did not change the rewarded Rifle.

Try giving that gun to Huff Darklighter for an even cooler reward =)

Doh! sorry, I didn't see that you said that other part...

I haven't even got that far due to bugs in the mission, I have lost all my quest items for that one and I suppose I'll have to buy them off someone now =(

What are the stats on that rifle?

I did the entire quest yesterday. The gun is nothing special that I know of, except for a unique appearance. I lost it of course, giving it to Darklighter to get the "reward*

The stats I remember:

60-ish min, 266-ish max. Attack Speed 14, kinetic damage.

14 attack speed??

I finished the quest last night and got the skull. You have to open your inventory and drag the rifle over to Huff and drop it on him. As far as not being certified, it is not a Tuskan rifle(which is our certification), so I think it was supposed to be a quest item(story only) and not a weapon. I am master rifleman also, so I tried the same thing when I got the rifle and was equally disappointed. At least I got the Krayt skull finally, been waiting months for them to fix the mission.

i really really wish they would fix the tusken's to be kinetic.

seriously. really.

is it true that the t21 was supposed to be blast too? i heard someone say that. i'd be a turret killing machine if that were the case.

T21's always been energy, I haven't seen anything that would indicate it should be blast. The only two weapons withinaccurate damage types are the Tusken (energy, should be kinetic, was changed for no apparent reason several months ago) and spraystick (energy, should be acid, was always energy but components and green bolts are more in line with an acid weapon).

Dam I wouldhave liked to use that rifle, I mean everyone got a stinkin Kryat Skull. But a Kenetic rifle that would be cool.

I think you may be wrong on the T-21's. They were blast for a day or two, when we were getting dicked around during the nerf. They were blast and ap1, then blast and ap3, then energy and ap3. I thinks.

I am certain the T21's have been energy form the get go I had a friend with one of those (now defunct) pre-nerf T21's etc and it was energy! (Rifleman have never had a blast weapon)!
