Just took out a Corellian Butterfly Monarch and two Defenders with Conceal Shot. They were right on top of each other, and are social. I did not draw aggro.

Excuse me for a few minutes. I'll be in my bunk.

Just took out a Sharnaff Bull while it was standing next to another Sharnaff Bull.

Took out a couple of Wrixes who were clustered in a group.

Took out some dire cats.

Yep, looks like we Rifle types finally got something we've been asking for for a long time: a Conceal Shot that works like you'd expect it to work.

Good to hear that rifleman finally got some love.



Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I cannot accept, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those people I had to kill today because they angered me.

Just as a follow up note to any Devs who may be reading this post and getting funny ideas about nerfing Conceal Shot:

I just killed a Rogue Fambaa with Conceal Shot. Took me 5 minutes. For one critter. Yes, it's safe. But it's slow.

Oh, heck, before the patch I was up to something like 11, myself, but those were all just solo ones without any buddies.


This was a spawn of two of them I encountered as I was making my way back to the starport this morning.No BAF aggro. Felt gooooooooooood.

5 minutes? Baaaahhhh...


I killed a Force Sensitive renegade (nothing to loot) from a dual spawn. After depleting the first mind bar (1000, 500, 700) I ate some muon and could barely kill it before downing kicked in. (3 minutes left that I used to kill his friend with flushing shot and a graul for 53 credits loot. Yippiiieee!)

I noticed that today! It roxed BIG TIME. OMG I can actually kill things now.


I used Cover then Conceal Shot... Does that improve my hit %? I assume it does. Do you all use Cover at all?
