What's the difference between Ranged Aiming and Carbine Aiming (assuming that I'm using a carbine)? If I have +25 ranged aiming, and +25 carb aiming, do they stack?


Thanks in advance.

If you are talking about general ranged aiming from the marksman profession, I think that that modifier increases your accuracy bonus to-hit when using the /aim command.

I would like to now this as well. I have the max general aiming from master marksman, but now idea if this stacks with Carbineer aiming. Or is there a /aim carbineer /carbineer aim that I am unaware of? Help a noob Master Marksman out!

General Ranged Aiming applies a bonus to accuracy while using /aim with ANY ranged weapon whereas Carbine Aiming works when using /aim with a carbine only.

The theory suggests the 2 stack but practice may prove to be different.....Sounds like a job for Firehawk.

I am not even convinced that /aim works. Been leveling BH and I see no difference using /aim with the horribly inaccurate LLC. I even tried triple /aim only to miss.

Oh but the Devs say /aim /aim /aim improves the next 3 shots....

Nova, for the LLC, your best bet is decent Snowcake. Its not perfect, but its about a threefold improvement with the 41 rated Snowcake I have.
