can anyone tell me the difference in damage between these to - i know that the adv sniper's multiplier is 3.4x bigger than the basic range shot with the same weapon.....any hints as to the multiplier for improved?


i only as as i'm contemplating droppping from master rifles to 4x44 rifles and getting xxx4 CM for the root (i already have 4xxx CM). given this diminishing returns thing, and a good set of SEAs the loss of defence/speed/accuracy is small, so my only real loss is this sniper shot (i never use startle anyhow)

No, the gun determines range (as do cyber arms, which can get you up to +15m range)

for general shots yes, buti still want to say that the advanced versions of sniper shot increase the max range at which the shot can be used along with increasing the damage done by the shot


i want to say its 40 for sniper shot, 65 forimproved and 80 for advanced, i will test later if normal and imp sniper shot can fired at 80m

I can tell you now: max on any sniper shot is 65m.

Ok, I'll change my post then: As of last Friday, Adv Sniper only hits from 65 max, can only get 80 w/ arms. Can't test lower, but I know there is still an upper limit of 65.

I can try that, but only after I get all my FS stuff, but I doubt if Advanced is only 65m that Imp is more than that.

no what im an suggesting is by dropping down to the box that only gives you Imp. sniper shot (making it your highest sniper shot) and have both cyber arms equipped that you wont be able to fire the sniper shot past 65m


but as Ack has already stated i may i have been looking at a info site with Pre-CU and/orCU-beta info and not realised it

once test center is back I can test. But right now since tcprime is down and I can't change my template at will with the correspondent terminal I will have to wait.
