Thread: is it a really bad idea to be a rifleman/squad leader?

I decided this would be my character long before release... I wanted the sniping power of the rifleman, while still being able to give group benefits to my squad from the back.


Now I know SL skills are pretty bunked right now... and I've only been a Novice SL for a week now... but when I finally DO get some SL skills that I want to use in combat, it's starting to look like a bad idea to continue with rifles since most rifle skills use mind pool as well.


So I'd be using rifle AND SL skills that will simply tear my mind pool to shreds.



Anyone have experience with this? Should I try to change my plan... or try to max out my mind pool stats and bear with it?

Its still viable but I would agree with maxing out your mind stats (All 3 pool, regen and ham dmg) I hope you picked Mon Cal for your race! As a trando I'm having a hard time with all the fail's the only saving grace is my /meditation which allows me to regen my mind pool back quickly.
