Rifleman Archive

Now i know all of you are excited about trying to get a Ghillie Suit and all, but shouldnt we already have the ability to hide enemies tab-targeting us and from being seen on radar? If your wondering what im talking about its called Cover...and thats what its supose to do...and we(counter-sniping tree) are supose to flush out enemy snipers.

Rather than trying to get a new skill, crafted item, and graphics designed from scratch tested and working. why dont we work on getting Cover to do what its supose to?

Cover should prevent tab-targeting of the sniper(although he can still be click-targeted) andremove the sniper from radar(all except group members). Some one hit by a sniper under cover, using conseal shot should not get the sniper as an auto target. This of course is mainly a PvP fix...but it should be adapted to work on NPCs some how, but not creatures as they react with insticts(thats what mask sent is for). Cover should not break untill the sniper stands up(or is forced up)or is flushed out by another rifleman. Im also thinking AoE attacks should break cover because they would logickly involve more than one shot making it easier to pinpoint the sniper.

I really doubt we will ever be taken off the radar in pvp. The melee folks already tried to get this since ranged folks kite them and everyone is the same speed. Best we can hope for is it to work pve, even if they did there are programs that can makeus show up on radar.

From what I understand they left the radar in for this purpose, to put everyone on a level playing field with the packet sniffer programs.
