Get 7k crit, with Hawk Eye, from stealth, 25k stamina.
Edit i wouldn't be complaining with a 7000k crit as i might be able to kill a dk with that.

✭✭✭✭✭Snipe should go back to a longer cast and range minimum making it just a situational ability more like you would expect, as an opener.
Venom arrow is fine as an interrupt or execute (of sorts)
Volley and arrow spray should be combined to a single AOE ability
Scatter shot is fine for the KB utility
Then there needs to be a more bread and butter utility that is just damage. Maybe a rapid fire of sorts.3 -
Nivzruo_ESO✭✭✭✭I agree, snipe should at the very least 1 shot people from stealth. Ideally snipe would 1 shot the target and ricochet to 5 of his nearby allies 1 shotting them as well.Nelgyntc- V14 NB14 -

This is why I support a full nerf of snipe. To make a better overall more rounded bow skill line.1 -

✭✭✭✭✭I personally like the fact that players are no longer a free PK while on their horses to snipers. Now it is what it is suppose to be - a surprise advantage.5 -
MADshadowman✭✭✭✭✭Snipe should not be able to 1-shot people. I think it's wrong to reward people for being lazy and just pushing 1 button over and over again, while being so far away, that no other skill can reach you.
PvP is player vs. player and not 1 player snipes another player and he dies instantly with no chance to react.1 -
jelliedsoup✭✭✭✭✭yes my bad 7k crit. With the level of mitagation and healing in this game the snipe skill is just like saying "here i am". absorb/ reflect and them bolt/invade to me while im trying to use dark cloak to get away.
all in all it makes the nb stam bow build very boring and weak, the one saving grace is 2h or i wouldn't have a chance at all.

in other words, you rolled bow in 1.5 caus it was so stupidly OP, and now that its somewhat reasonable (tho i've been hit with 10-12k snipes) you make a qq thread?5 -

✭You need to do more than snipe to be deadly. Everyone else combine effects and synergy bonuses to get to where they are.
When i release a sniper shot I first activate a minor and maybe major brutality buff. Then while the arrow is in flight I apply the mark target so it give the armor debuff once the arrow land and don't give the target a long warning.
That have given me 10 to 17k snipe shots.
After that depending on the distance to the target you either keep on using snipe or at closer range begin to animation cancel.
Where defending a keep yesterday, got 13 kills with the bow before the wall were down.2 -

You bet, as long as it gets a 10% chance of snap back, killing you and every Ally within the ridiculous snipe range radius.Nivzruo_ESO wrote: »I agree, snipe should at the very least 1 shot people from stealth.

Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...

Yeah.... that's only for players below lv50.
There is no battle leveling post-50. And it's kinda crappy pre-50 as well, as it just equalizes all of your attributes instead of taking into account how you actually spread your stats.Edited by Varicite on March 6, 2015 1:36AM1 -
