I'm playing through this game again, decided I wanted to go mainly ranged weapons just for fun.

 

Previously when using master speed + master critical with lightsabres I've maintained 4 attacks per round and still been critting like mad. This time though, with a juiced up disruptor rifle using master snipe and master speed,, I'm finding that I'm critting, but only getting one attack per round. That means that I'd be better off not using master snipe and using other specials instead, which is a bit odd.

 

Does the ranged critical feat negate the extra attacks per round?

 

Cheers.

I have run into the same thing before. I use a souped up rifle, and I still only crit once and a wile. <_<

Hmm its not the frequency of the crits which is a problem, but the fact that instead of getting 3 attacks per round, I'm only getting 1.

Yes, the extra attack bonus from speed (and perhaps other new powers) do not apply to ranged weapons - however there was an oversight ("bug") in KotOR 1 where Rapid Shot would get the extra attacks, and I don't know if this is still the case.
