Well I have a few...
1. Rifle_MeleeDefense1- When a Melee weapon wielder is running at you screaming at the top of his lungs ready to hack into your body, what is stopping you from grabbing the barrel of your gun, and slapping the guy in the face with the stock, knocking him to the ground andpossibly blinding him from the attack to the head?
This attack Knocks Down and Blinds your opponent
2. Rifle_MeleeDefense2- When a Melee weapon wielder is running at you screaming at the top of his longs ready to hack into your body, what is stopping you from jamming your gun into his gut, knocking the wind out of him, making him fall to the ground stunned.
This attack Knocks Down and Stuns your opponent
each of these attacks should do about 100-300 dmg in PvP and about 300-600 in PvE not making it an outrageously powerful Knockdown, but strong enough to ring someone's bells...
If you take cover, i think your defenses(ranged, KD, blind, stunned, dizzy, etc) should multiply by at least 3 times...but it shoiuld also make you much more vulnerable to melee attackers(if you go take cover when a melee assaulter is less than 10m from you, i think you deserve to die thats just my opinion:smileyhappy
Surprise shot should be a delay shot, like panic shot, 10 second ranged delay....
Think about it, if your opponent is not paying attention, and all of a sudden a laser bolt flies by him, would he really pop right on target and start shootin? i dont think so, IMO i think devs intended for Surprise shot to be a ranged delay anyways...they just got too lazy and forgot to add it in....
Block- Block should be replaced(i know this isnt a move but oh well?) with a new type of evade (dodge, counter-attack) it should be like..........Elude, same thing as dodge(seeing as dodges, counter-attacks, and blocks dont stack anyways)but a different name.....You shoot at Morbius but he eludes the shot, something like that in the combat log....that would be better IMO....
I dont know, just some ideas.....

Ok, I'm a commando, so I know what a broken profession is like. How can you say rifleman need more attacks? You dominate the game so you shuld geta knockdown are you kidding? I have 1 gun that works maybe they should fix that before they make you better.

You're melee moves are call Buttstrokes. I've been looking for a good way to implement one, but I'm afraid your suggestions are too powerful. I shouldn't be a defense agains melee, only a last-ditch effort.

The melee defense I dont totally agree with... considering we can dizzy, and if we can dizzy+KD that would give us even more of an advantage against the other marksman professions. However, I do like the surprise shot delay attack idea. That does make a lot of sense, I mean, right now all it is another move. Not any stronger than Flurry Shot1, and Flurry Shot dizzies.... I think the delay would be nice. And... it makes sense.
