Well, since hitting master anyway.


Anyway I just wanted to say one thing: SNIPERSHOT RULES!


That is all.

I think it's an unspoken hidden gem of our profession to be honest. I never looked at it until last night and now me and my other friend who's a MR too love it.Real handy when attacking a faction base.

It majorly sucks to be the victim of Snipershot, but I guess that's what Feign Death is for

Yeah, I think that's what upset the faction players so much last night. They thought they were safe in range of their turrets but it's pretty easy to run in, snipershot, and run out before the turret can kill you. (As long as you're buffed....)

Snipershot was one of the primary things was looking forward to during my grind to master- apart from master of course


I absolutely love it, and it is always very handy in PVP.

After watching a TK or two pop right back up by using ForceOfWill after I worked my butt off to incap them, I promised myself that would not happen again. Now, I queue up snipershots as soon as it looks like they are about to be incapped, and they are almost always dead before they hit the ground.

But you understand that most non-Rifleman PvPers are majorly annoyed about SniperShot and some pick up TKA or Smuggler exactly for the reason to counter Snipershot?


IMO it borders to 'cheap', but then again, many things in this game do.

LOL! First off whoever gave me a one star rating on this thread is an IMMATURECHILD! All I said is that I have discovered snipershot as an asset to my class. And I posted it in my professions forum, not someone elses to rub it in. If you one star that then you shouldn't be allowed to go online, you are star crazy! RUN! RUN FROM THE MADMAN GIVING EVERYONE WITH AN OPINION ONE STAR!


Anyway how is it cheap? We don't have KD but I think other classes having it is great. If you were in a class that didn't have KD would you go around complaining that it was cheap? If not you are a total and pathetic hypocrite. I HATE hypocrites. Everyone does, they are llllllame.


Geeze some of the people that play this game are very silly.

Actually, Sniper Shot is one of the few "logical" shots in the game. You have a person who is EXPERT with a rifle shooting at a non-moving target... Any real-life expert sniper should be able to put a bullet in the head of an unconcious adversary. And, like Yetti_TUS pointed out, every class has some special that others can consider cheap. Hey... maybe I think "ForceOfWill" is cheap! I am Master Smuggler, we have "Feign Death"... I know there are a lot ofnon-smugglerswho definitely think that is cheap!
