Sniper shot is a power up used *prior* to your next shot. Though it appears to do nothing, once powered up, it will make your next 'placed shot' do more damage.

This is incorrect
snipershot is in and of itself our most powerful attack
It has a warm up phase then it releases a devastating attack
it does not effect "placed shot" at all

if you get hit while warming up though it cancels it, even though the warmp is not canceled.

Observed behaviors:
Many times I've seen this special fire before the warmup timer even starts, making it act occasionally like an instant nuke. This behavior is inconsistant.
If you are hit while it is warming up it will not fire. Again inconsistant behavior.
I THINK there maybe line of sight issues throughout the duration of the warmup. If the mob moves, it is more likely to miss.
Functional recommandations:
Use sniper shot to open up your attack volley, after you use Aim of course. The use Head Shot and Aimed Shot, the refresh on these it perfect for constant firing, and they are your second highest specials damage wise.

This move can do upwards 3k damage to unarmored targets in pvp, and 1500-2000 to armored targets.
