Thread: hmm, opinions please
After hearing all the 'get 1/0/3' advice I am at a bit of a deciding point.
1) Conceal 1 is lookin pretty good because of the ranged mitigation. Since ditching armor, I havent done much faction hunting, I assume blaster fire is gonna suck without my composite.
2) From hearing all the down play on Headshot3, kinda not worried about climbing up the sniper tree (I dont pvp much ,yet, so sniper shot not doing it for me there...)
3) Im tired of Novice Sharpshooter, Gunner looks kinda promising, pluse the extra ae attack cant necessarily hurt the grind to master.
Any suggestions? Currently I exp by grouping with my two grauls, and taking piket/graul missions around dant, send pets in, to aggro all mobs and flushing2 till dead.
Im leaning toward Counter Sniping 4 for the additional AE and the title change. The combat exp from grinding out the last half or so of exp will creep me closer to Rifle Ablilities 3, which just adds another ae, and more rifle speed.
Thanks,
Aleo

I think there is a cap on xp, so you'll probably get 5k.

all animals give a max of 5k XP for weapons.
damage mitigation doesnt seem to affect NPC weaponfire all that much i take the same damage as always when getting hit. the range of damage a NPC does is small. so mitigation doesnt have that much of an effect. it is mainly a PvP bonus.
the changes i have noticed on krayts:
340kHAM (duh)
increased the AOE attack of a krayt out to 30ish meters
those are the two biggees. so basically sending more than one pet after a krayt is foolish as it will kill all the pets at an almost equal rate. i hunt krayts more than a little and a good minimum mix is two masterCH and a master doctor. going krayt hunting tonite to test tactics.

I went with conceal shot. It works great, and you can use it on ANYTHING, not just for faction hunting. If you had enough time you could solo a Kryat (even with 350K they now have.........lol) with it.
They added a chance for a 1pnt blead to prevent this. I dont use this skill much cause im almot MCH and its just not worth the time for me but i did try it a few tims for fun and on 4 FS npc guys i killed using it after i first got it one got a blead about half way through so it made me mighty happy i hadnt put my 2 baby spiders away. As a Wook with no armor i usualy get one hit by the higher lvl FS guys
