Hey guys i have just gotten counter-snping 3 and im racking in the xp extremely fast now. So fast, most of the hunting groups i go in are getting mad at me because im stealing all the xp lol.... anyway I was wondering which branch i should take up next... concealment or sniping

thanx again

Concealshot is my friend.

I have a great PA that takes hunts all the time, but when im on at odd hours it realy helps to have conceal shot.

You can really kill almost anything as long as you dont miss.

Just equip the t21, get to your ideal range go prone and spam concealshot. As long as you dont miss you will kill a 4k ham creature in 2 - 5 shots, and then move on to the next victim.

You need food though or you will have to rest between beasts.

I have also experience the group breaking dmg we deal. I get 2k xp everyone else gets 800... they dont like that.

P.S. I rack up 40-60k xp per hour on my own killing torturs or huf duns on talus.

get conceal shot and master sniping, lots of fun

k thanx guys

So starting at Novice Riflemen, what is the best thing to do first in order to get more xp? Counter Sniping straight to III? or what? thanks for any input.

yea if you have a pet than i would go for counter-sniping 3 because it's an AoE attack...

also great for groups because you steal all the xp haha

hehehe. So are any of the skills on the way up to that any good? or is it kinda grind and wait. Cause at the moment im a novice riflemen, and im using overchargeshot1. I do average of about 3000 damage with the Laser Rifle i have. Got it up to 8950 damage somehow. But it works good, but does alot of condidtion damage to my gun.

The HeadShot and MindShot series are helpful since they target a single pool. ConcealShot is good if you solo often without a pet tank.

I also like FlushingShot for NPCs. It causes dizzy. If the NPC is a ranged type they will usually posture change on their own so have a fair chance of falling over. But again this only works on NPCs.

WarningShot from Marksman should also be your friend. If a creature gets close use this to keep it away. It was vital when there was a 2.5X melee penatly but is still useful now.

Some people also use SupressionFire from Marksman in conjunction with FlushinShot. Flush them to make dizzy then Suppression to force the posture change and knock them over.

overchargeshot1 kills the condition on any marksman weapon, use strafeshot1
