Thread: For fellow novices, Concealed Shot
Well I got concealed shot and learned a couple things.
1) It's very slow, this mabe because on Star Sider all we have are laser rifles
2) It works alright. Killed alot of Giant Baz Nitchs, Maulers, and even a singing moutain dragoon.
3) The problem, you have to kill your target before you miss twice. Miss 2 times and your dead.
In summary, since the Dev's want to do away with kiting this is the best way to get solo xp. You'll die less times since warning shot while running is now a liability. It aint pretty, but it works.
A silghtly happier rifleman but still mad, BTW my rifleman is 0/1/0/0 and only has a laser rifle so mabe you can do better than me but since using this tactic I am definately getting more exp then kiting.

Not anymore, the DEV's really fixed this one. Got to be in cover to use this special, can only attack MOB's that either dont "Bring Friends" or have no friends around, and most importantly if you miss twice your ass is dead.
Really it works, too bad they messed everything else up.
Sorry to bouble post, but I got off more like 30 consecutive hits with this special.
i have ms1 and2 and i would much rather sit in one place than running all over creation waiting for some dumb mob to bleed out.
last night i went prone, popped a muon gold and used conceal on a herd of torturs on talus, i managed to bag 5 of them before my spice timed out.
i hate kiting mobs, i would much rather ACT like a real sniper and sit in one place and take mobs out. Unfortunately, the devs have decide that they dont want us to do that. ![]()
"i managed to bag 5 of them before my spice timed out."
Ouch.
You don't seem to realize that you can multi kite ![]()
I usually kite two or three snorbals each round. I get at least5 up to around 10snorbals with every muon gold I use (depending on the snorbal spawn).
Whatever, you canstay prone if you don't feel like running aroundbut I prefer faster experience ![]()
