A few questions about this skill.

- I've read what it does, but my question is how sneaky is it?

- Does it take your dot off the radar? That sounds great but if you see what direction the shots are coming from it doesn't seem too concealing.

- Is it an acual attack, or does it make you and your shots virually invisible for a length of time while you can Sniper Shot or whatever other shot you would like to do?

what this is reallly is simply an attack from under cover. It is the ONLY attack that you can do from cover that will NOT uncover you. even seemingly non-revealing abilities such as aim will take you out of cover and make your dot show on the radar. this is not however the same as cover; in order to use this attack you must already be under cover. the enemy will be able to see your shots, but will not be able to target you with tab, see you on the radar, or see your character on their screen, but again they CAN see your shots. this is very helpful if you aren't fighting in an urban environment and you already have a friend attacking the enemy, as you may be able to lead them to an area where you are set up and then use conceal shot a few times, damaging them but still remaining invisible on the radar. if they're distracted they will notice that they're taking extra damage but not know from where. In PvE fighting the mob will slowly move towards you, around 10m per shot, and back off a bit. once they get within about 30m they will run straight at you and uncover you. something else to note, if you attack them once and then stop attacking, after a while they may still come after you, so it's a good idea to keep firing. from personal experience i can say that i can take a number of single mobs down to about 1/2 health before they get close enough to uncover me, at which point i use something like snipershot or a kd or other abilities that i have.
