I know I should know the answer to this, but I'm just not too bright.

What can I say?

Can someone please enlighten me?

Thanks,

Aiming only affects the bonus from using the Aim skill (marksman ranged support tree), accuracy is a general bonus that is always in effect.

Great. Thanks.

Is the only bonus from /aim a greater chance to hit? Or does using it give more dmg, too?

Master? I quit aiming when I hit Sniping 2. And that was before the big accuracy boost we just got.

i used /aim like twice in the entire time i have been playing. i find it less than useful and of dubious benefit. to me /aim is similar to the tumbling skills. why?????

I actually use it in some hunting macros as a delay to make peace work correcly in the timing.


Other than that, it is not that important once you have all the acuracy mods. Before that, it is useful.
