Yes, it is.


Get some +terain negotiation. You will need it.


Go to prone about 260m out. Cover and crawl in.


Terain Negotiation 1-50 affect your ability to negotiate inclines.


Terain Negotiation 50-100 affect your ability to crawl. (It is bossible to crawl as fast as you now run. Have you ever seen a Ranger crawl?)

Yes it is i crawled many times 300m to be in the 65m range to use aim then sniper shot if the jeday is low on health. It can be the one shot kill if u do it in the right moment but never do the concealshot as he will see where the shot comes from and runs towards u ...then u uncloak and in saber range ...and then mostly dead if hes a exploiter or just a good pre cu saber user.


Just use pyro and cryspic + aim + adv snipershot when the jedi is in trouble or just low on health / aura off whatever and u will be successful.

Well, in the direct sense, yes. Generally however, no.


To find out if the mark is open to a cover attack (no players and such wandering around that could discover you, checking if the Jedi is busy killing to notice the first few hits etc.) you have to get within sight. If you wanna risk doing this covered, you have one long ass crawl through the grass ahead of you, by which time the Jedi has most likely left. Also, there is nothing and I mean nothing more unnerving for a Jedi then seeing a dot vanish from radar, they'll be force running all over the place trying to find you again, so if you want to cover attack, you have to crawl in from like 120m away, as I said, a long ass crawl. However, and this is very circumstancial, if you can discover the marks route and journey you can set up and ambush, Jedi go temporarily insane when they get hit with an Adv Sniper while FR3ing between lairs, as they may or may not have forgotten to stack on thier states. So generally, no, but in certain situations, maybe. Did I make sense?

well il tell my story from last night

first time i tried to use /cover and stalking


my target was on talus, in a house. i drop missoin, get another and get the same exact jedi. this time i jsut see him run from one house a house nearby on the overhead.


so i go prone and coverabout 90m away and crawl in to 50m. (big mistake)

i wait. and wait, about 15 minuts later, he comes out and starts runnign to the other house. i am SURE he did not know i was there. but, now we see why 50 m was a mistake, because by the time i targeted him and shot - he was not in LOS, so i lost cover, cus i tried to sniper, AND by the time i got up and into range, he was safe.


anyway, i waited another 15 minuts in cover again, but he did come out of course.THIS time though i crawled to within 30 m of the house and a much btr positioning. i tried to chat with him to ask him if he saw me, but he ignored me. so i just got another missoin. (this one was a kill. he was grinding FP at a reb base hehe, he tried to cloak when he saw me, but no cloakign when surounded by 25 NPC- he poped right out of cloak in 2 secs.)


anyway the moral of my story? cover can be used,BUT YOU NEED TO POSITION CAREFULLY .

Cover up is my favorite thing to do...i dont know how to surprise jedi otherwise unless you're really good, which i am not. Im sure it can be done other ways, but im a coverup -- crawl 50 meters -- sniper shot kinda guy.

Pyro and crispix do not stack. Aim however does stack. Pyro and adv aim is a deadly combo.
