Rifleman Archive

Ive appreciated all the tips and help people have given me. I have another question though. Btw, I read the FAQ and imo its missing a lot of info. Things like you should lvl up in the tree this way, which weapons are good as you progress, and tech's for hunting.

I'm currently 1-1-0-3 and I wanted to know if I should climb to get flushing shot 2 first or just get more accuracy. Im a 4-1-4-1 TKA atm so I usually hit them if they get close. Will Area Effect Damage really make the exp flow in? Thanks

Yay CM changes!

If you're 1-1-0-3, you've already got an AoE from the Combat tree.. go for accuracy!

Flurry shot2 sucks though... I'd suggest concealment up to ranged damage mitigation II.

Strength of an idea doesn't involve silly things like the truth or logic, you just make proclaimations as loudly as possible without leaving room for compromise.

This is a matter of taste, really. Donca is right, you have an AoE attack with Flurryshot2. It is also a Dizzy effect, so you are dizzying multiple targets as well. However, according to the threads on specials, I believe you will find that Flurryshot2 actually does less damage than Flurryshot1 (2x for the former, and 2.5x for the latter). Going up to Counter-Sniping III will give you and AoE which does 4x the damage.

Going up Sniping Accuracy will give you more accuracy, of course, but the specials are: Headshot3, whose HAM costs do not justify the slight increase in damage over Headshot2 (unless you are buffed sufficiently to reduce costs), SurpriseShot, which I do not believe is in high use by anyone, and Snipershot (a great special being the only ranged DB in the game, but it is only good for PvP).

You are probably better off going for x x 3 x first, then go 4 x 3 x.
