I have intermediate sniping accuracy. I also have 300k exp banked. Do i get advance sniping accuracy or one of the other intermediate skills? The main concern is exp. Ifear that if i get advanced sniping accuracy, i will get less exp for the mobs i kill. Or is headshot 3 worth the risk?

Thats a good question, folks have been doing some testing and the value of HS3 over HS2 or HS1 has been a source of debate. HS1 is probably still the most efficient if you look it at in terms of mind cost and when you combine that with a good weapon, then HS1 is still pretty nasty...but I have HS3 and getting off that 1800+ headshot with a T21 always makes me smile.


Not sure what I'm getting next though, Snipe Acc 3 was my goal, but I may be something else first not sure.

funny you ask. I was in the same exact position as you last night.


I went ahead and got advanced sniping accuracy. I love headshot3 combined with my nice dlt20a... I can headshot every couple seconds never hitting for less than 800 damage.


Oh yeah, and from what I can tell xp gets reduced based on how much overall xp you have accumulated in a skill. not in which skills you have actually learned.

It's been proven that the later HSs are better.

hasnt it been suggested that you max out your exp pool before investing in new skill? as it seems to make exp earning a bit more easier/efficient..
