The skill itself isn't that annoying, it's just that it can desync your HP when someone spams it. Same thing happens when someone hard casts frags on sorc.

You complain about Snipe ? lol

Snipe has a cast time, is relatively slow, you can hear it coming and its dodgeable.

Anyone that gets caught out by snipe is either inexperienced, careless, doesn't have the right build for PVP or has reflex and co-ordination problems.

you want to complain ?

how about 15+ players chasing down an under levelled solo player, then t-bagging ?

how about pvp 'leets destroying pve questers during events ?

how about tanks that can somehow do more damage than a damage build and sustain more than a sustain build ?

how about 'ball' groups that are impossible to get out of your keep unless your faction co-ordinates?

how about resource tower/bridge ap farmers ?

how about the 'Hammer' ?

how about cheaters and exploiters ?

etc etc etc

In an empty campaign maybe. With lag, you can be hit 5 times by the time you hear it. Not the sniper's fault though, valid play style.

I don't understand the purpose of this post.

Should bows have no direct tracks other than light and heavy?

Bows have a hard time already, there are no real good Monster helm synergies for it. And are basically a backbar (if used at all) in trials. Nerfing the only real direct dps bows have is not the direction we should be going.

I think the point is: I got killed by a sniper in pvp, nerf them! Lol

Snipers are fine the damage isn't even OP, it's the desync thats absolutely embarrassing. Dead before you can react.

I always hated it, now I enjoy spamming it as much as dizzy, bloodthirsty, whip, streak etc...

I actually made a bow/bow warden as a memesque build, now I actually love playing it. Obviously it isn't quite the cliche being discussed, but I named it "the piece of ***" regardless 😂

I also still play it near melee range as I use shalks and it's what I'm used to.

Every once in a while when I can't be arsed to pay much attention I log on my stamsorc and snipe people from a keep wall. It's not exciting, but that's kind of the point for me, and whenever someone looks at her funny she falls over dead anyway.

is a valid playstyle
even tho it is weak in damage output, it forces us archers to be perfect in timing and situations and wait for the exact moment and position to attempt kills. is alot of fun and very rewarding if successfull.
not as easy as people think, it requires alot of training and thinking and defenses -

Oh, I love snipe spammers - in 90% cases is information that they will be easy dinner for my 2h sword. [snip]

I was ok with snipe... but with the new vampire, NB's have too many bonusses from stealth. It's completely unbalanced now.

I'm curious...

How exactly would the Snipe complainers like a bow build to play in a war zone?

PizzaCat82 · August 2020

Sniping doesn't work on 80% of players. to the 20% that lag, or went afk, or simply didn't any heals or pots available, I'm truly sorry
