Rifleman Archive

I just became a rifleman today been grouped on Dantooine for the past 4 days and i started at intermediate rifle and ive grouped with alot of pistoleers, bounty hunters, Tera Kasi, and Pikeman and the biggest quipple i have is that rifleman have no knockdown abilitys and if u count trying to conceal shot like 10 times till u take down a Picket or a Bol it just dosent happen. I think we should get something like Knee Shot where u shot the knee area to make them fall to the ground, like knockdown or pistolwhip. anyone else agree.

Yeah, that would be kind of nice, or maybe it would be called Mind Blast or something and it knocks them down.

yea and as ive seen we dnt do the most damage ive seen pistoleers hit for 1500 with stopping shot which is way to much for a pistol to hit for.

Yeah really. Also that pistol vs melee thing that knocks you down. A pistoleer got pointblank to me and knocked me down before I could shoot... I get up get knocked down, up, down etc... until I died. It's horrible. And their pistols have just as much range as a rifle, but as the run closer they get more accurate and we get less accurate.

We do get the Dizzy ability.

Yeah, but the only time it is really effective is if the player was prone or kneeling.... unless they just feel like trying to sit while attacking you? I don't have that attack yet, so I need to try it before I really know if it's good or not. <---- is that bothan sitting on a toilet?

well, if they ever fix Suppression Fire - an easy fix for knockdown

I dunno if i agree with a ranged knockdown. There are too many in the game already.

What if they gave rifles a melee knockdown like pistolwhip? I mean, it's not that hard to knock someone down with the butt of a rifle.
