Please explain too me why everyone thinks Rifles should have a slow rate of fire?


Rifles have a much higher rate of fire than a pistol, not only that but they also have better range and accuracy. But in SW its backwards. But I would still like too know why you think Rifles should have a slow rate of fire. Are we using Blackpowder Muzzle Loader Laser rifles or something?

It's some weierd balancing. At novice your observation might be true, but at master the rifleman fires the same gun 10 times as fast as the novice marksman.

The Master Pistoleer fires 2.5 times as fast as a novice marksman (Not so impressive eh). This is not with dabbling in BH Pistol line. With that they can boost up their speed so much up that they have unlimited speed, only the 1 second cap braking them *g*

Everyone caps at +100. At Master Rifle you have +90. Master Marksman adds +5.

1. yes
2. max would be +100(At master rifleman you get +90, with master marksman you get +95)

Skill tapes to look out for

Rifle Speed (worth a good chunk of chash...on sunrunner at least, about 1mil per point)
Rifle Accuracy (This is a good skill tape to have, Rifle Accuracy effects your accuracy in every way that you shoot it. It's quite difficult to hit melee stackers when they don't have intimidate and stun on them)
Rifle Accuracy While Moving (Since Rifleman has weak state defenses and low melee defenses, you'll most likely be kiting your opponent. So this is where this mod is essential.)

Block...You'll have to get someone who's a bit more educated with the Rifleman profession, I do not know if these are working or even worth keeping.
