Strategy
As the Rifle
- The Rifle's higher rate of fire makes it a better contender for medium-range fights, but it still can be outpenetrated in a face to face combat. Strafe between enemy bullets to make sure you can land repeating hits.
- Use your high FoV to attack the enemy horizontally. Attacking vertically will result in being beaten by bullet spammers or ambushed by heavy fire.
- Every bullet matters, so try to lead your bullets into enemies' movement in order to have a better chance at hitting them.
Against the Rifle
- Drone classes can easily surround and overwhelm a Rifle. However, beware of the Rifle attacking back!
- Pounder tanks can be effective against Rifles due to their extremely powerful bullets and typically greater mobility at close to medium range.
- Bullet spammers like the Triplet, Penta Shot or Sprayer can also overwhelm a Rifle through sheer DPS at close range.
- Rammers, like tanks in the Propeller and Lancer branches, can charge at a Rifle while blocking its shots.
