The guy is incapped.. my sniper shot misses 4 times and he evades the 5th? I switched to my DXR-6 which has 106 ranged mods at 54m, and I was about that distance when I was usingsnipershot. Idon't understand why this happens, other than the dizzy and stun states Ihad on me?


I think sniper shot should be something that's more automatic.

rofl evades? I've never had that problem, I dont see how a Incapacitated man could "evade" a shot though.... you sure you read the combat tab right?

It seems that Secondary defenses (Dodge, CounterAttack, Block) still work when incap'd. Which leads to the occassional evaded SniperShot. Personally I would list it as a /bug and add it to our bug list.

I always tap my snipershot button about three times out of habbit from having stackers dodge me. Sometimes I have to keep taping it though.

There was a problem where Dodge(Counterattack too?)would still be active after incapacitation. I thought this was fixed, but perhaps not. Did you happen to check the combat log?
