Hello,
I recently aquired Novice Rifleman skill, and im wonding whatSkills(shots) to get first, i was reading the old Faq and it says to go 1/0/3/x as soon as you can, but that was along time ago,
Currently im a Novice CH & Rifleman, i only do PvE, dont care about pvp aspect of things.
which skills as a rifleman would be best to get first ?
im debating between Mindshot 2 and Conceal Shot, Though if other trees aremore important, i am open to them as well,
looking for skills that will allow me to hunt bigger game and do more damage.
Thanks for your time

Since you are a CH I assume you are using a pet tank. If so go up toCounter-Sniping III first. This will give you FlushingShot2 which is a good AoE attack. Send your pet in to tank and stand back and hit them all. The XP gain should come fairly quick.
After you get Counter-Sniping III I would go up Sniping for the Accuracy. Finish that off, then finish off Counter-Sniping and Concealment.
ConcealShot isnt' going to help much if you are using a pet tank. It also is a fairly slow attack. Nor is it's damage multiplier as high as FlushingShot2.

Flushing Shot 2 – Rifleman Counter-Sniping III : This attack can cause a Stun state on multiple targets. While Stunned, the target has lower defenses and forfeits its next attack.Damage 4.0X Time 2.6X Effect : AoE Stun + Posture Up
I misunderstood the FAQ then, does FlushingShot2 cause an AoE STUN or does it cause AoE DAMAGE and STUN? the impression I got from the FAQ was just AoE stun....

It does both. Stun and AoE attack. So it will stun multiple opponents.
There is a revised FAQ that may help 'ya some. Here is the link.

I was able to just conceal spam my way up to 0/1/2/0 getting aggro-ed exactly twice. I could have gone higher, but I got bored.
