you are not supposed to take cover with Conceal Shot. Your story sounds weird to me as well. and actually you dont really need conceal shot as you are already high in the rifleman tree

To answer the question, yes conceal shot works. Most people use it to grind to master the fastest. Only on some rare occassions will conceal shot actually give your position

I think your problem is with maskscent. Few people even use it anymore. Mask scent as a chance of breaking and causing agro. Initiating combat breaks you maskscent with that creature. They are gonna agro. Anyways, based on what I know I think that is what the problem is.

Bah - darn forums did not take all the text in the post....


My question is this...


I heard conseal shot is one of the best newb rifleman/woman skills to get in PVE.

The guy said "stay 45m to 65m and they never know you are there."


Well I was 4/0/0/4 in rifle before I trained in consealshot...

(had a ton of combat xp from lvling other classes)


Anyways I leveled sniping tree in a few hours using a macro:

headshot2;

pause 2;

peace;


and I could solo a fierce picket protector without them EVER detecting and aggroing on me.


I use conseal shot (prone with mask sent at 64m) and spam consealshot....

The picket (or what ever creature) always (and I mean ALWAYS) detects me and aggros after the 2nd shot.


What am I doing wrong?


do I need to "takecover" before using it?


Thanks in advance

As long as you are only using conceal shot and your weapon isn't auto-firing, they shouldn't normally detect you. (Sometimes concealshot can cause a bleed that does 1 health damage, then you get aggroed).


I had a macro that was just:


/concealshot;/concealshot;/concealshot;/concealshot;/concealshot;/concealshot


I would use this while laying on the ground with no armor on.


With your speed you should have no problems.

make sure you don't miss with concealshot. After like the second miss they find you and aggro

You got sniping tree in a few HOURS? Damn its taking me days...and im playing non-stop. I tried pikets at first but they take to long to kill...whats your secret then?



On topic...You're just getting bad luck...if you miss or they dodge/counter sometimes they will aggro...and sometimes even if you do hit every time, they randomly aggro...just luck.

Are you sure you're using conceal shot? I've never had a problem with it..


But you know..you have enough rifle speed to where you shouldn't be using it.. .just HS the hell out of the creatures...maybe freeze them w/ supression fire to get more shots in...


Work you're way to x x 3 x as soon as you can.
