Rifles are the undisputed king of high end PVE damage. With the only regular AP3 weapon a 5.5 damage mod and speed cap with only +7 in speed tapes shooting weapons as powerfull as our powerhammer but with AP3. however they have NO way to kill nightsisters






The only NS I know of that they cant touch is a protector, the others shouldnt be an issue and I know for a fact that they can do damage to an Elder.

For just the plain Masters I would say the rifleman wins easily. TKA would beat them only when the resists are in their favor. The issue with swordsman is the speed. Rifleman hit the speed cap with most weapons at master. The powerhammer needs +17 in skill tapes. +17 and you get 2-3x dmg.

Riflemen against everything but certain kinds of medium level nightsisters who fall easily to powerhammers.

The armor hole works both ways is how riflman can damage nightsisters and after enoungh ounding there resists start to drop down. But most nightsisters that i run across are 100% energy/cold/acid/stun with the only lower one to kinetic

my girlfriend and I were tanking a NS elder on dath the other night. Well i'm hammering her mind because she can't heal it. A rifleman friend of ours comes out with his uber T21 and starts hammering her with Mindshot3, now the NS may have energy resists but enough of the AP3 was working. Combat log looked like this "Player uses Mindshot 3 on NS elder for 5300 or some insane number." But since the combat log isn't accurate for damage after resists and such, i stopped attacking her and watched the number leave her head, 1300, 1000, 900, 1800. He killed it while i stopped attacking it.
