Thread: Is there a market for Bezerker Rifles
I don't know how the market for them is, but here's a bit of free advice on making them. Don't use form-fitted stocks on a beserker rifle. With a normal adv stock the weapon is still very fast for a rifle, about 5.4 if I remember correctly. Most riflemen that I've talked with could care less about speed. They don't have any problem hitting their speed cap as a high lvl rifleman. What they want is the dmg pure and simple. Form-fitted stocks give you less dmg than an adv stock. That's just my opinion, do whatever you want, but why make a very fast rifle faster, especially when it won't even matter to the majority of riflemen?
and I'd love to find out how much these are going for various servers.
i have one with my alt...it looks awesome, i get tons of comments when i run around with it, but they are pretty worthless. the heat damage is cool but being AP0 just sucks for a rifle. but im sure if you made them you could sell them just because they look cool.
although i wouldnt waste the FF stocks on them either. Adv stocks does a good enough job on a wpn like this.
Within the last two weeks, I have gotten no less than three request for these. The three offers I recieved wer for 400k, 500k and 1 mil. So I would say there is at least in my experience some market for these at least among the more elite rifleman. I think most rifleman just want to own one. I am on intrepid so I can't say anything for the other servers.

Thanks for the tips, I made them up last night and am awaiting the 'slicer' to do his work. I had one person specifically ask for a FFS as he suspects after the revamp that speed caps will be just beyon reach without aide to all classes. I dont know if thats the case (sounds sensible so its probably not)....
Ill post stats when I get a chance (im imprisoned at work and they refuse to pay me for staying home and playing SWG....damned pesky bosses).
