Thread: Is it worth it as a scout...

to get novice rifleman for T21 certification? I've got a nice laser rifle now, but was wondering how much better a T21 would be for a scout. Beyond master scout, my development plans are fairly open. I was kind of thinking master marksman, since hunting and ranged weapons are a nice combination, but I'm not completely set on it. And rifle specialist can get me onto rifleman. Any ideas?


So many professions and skills, so few skill points.

Tarkus,


Yes.


That's what I did. While the T21 is currently bugged, it does let me hit a lot harder when couple with my rifle skills. My current career path is going to leave me as a Master Scout/Ranger/Rifleman, with a little bit of marksman left over. Having the stopping power has been very useful.


The T21 bug is that currently, despite the fact that the T21 should be able to pierce through to armor level 3, it currently is only able to hit through armor level 0. This doesn't matter for 90% of what you are doing, but you won't be able to solo a Rancor or a AT-ST anytime soon.

Cool, thanks Delta. I knew I couldn't have been the only person to think of using a T21 as a hunting rifle.
