It's a pvp spec that's for sure. I would more like it for the defense from engi rather than unlimited energy. My friend tried to run it in pve, I don't think it worked our well tbh

I know on the sniper side we have not really been posting dummy parses much, mainly because we found on pts around what each specs' output was. Hybrid was legit 1st at around 2750 on dummy with fancy gear SS and DF both parsed around 2500 I think Sab tree has 2 separate locations in reality. 2400 with out scatter bombs 2900 with scatter bombs In a live fight a San will probably parse less than that, because its much harder to get all 5 scatters on target unless said boss has a large hit circle

Didn't you have the old BM shells as well?

Abit of a necro eh? What is it u are trying to do?

Grats on another sticky! Also as mentioned in other threads what do u think of 2 2piece pvp bonus? 5 ticks of OS sounds pretty if you can keep the boss in 1 spot for 15 sec

Why should you followthrough on something if its already dead jk

If that's the case then why bother coming here and talk to the GTN poster directly? You can see his name after all

Wow that was awesome. Would it be possible to run the power comparison for a rotation? And rather then calculating TTK you could run it for total damage output. I would be curious to see how that curve would come out

IP does not work, but for gunslingers SC does work. it is treated like a bleed for some reason Doesn't make a difference however. Cull also has a maximum of 2 dots that it can be affected by

Whenever I pvp there for some unknown reason is always 4 other people healing on my side. This would be okay I guess, except for the fact that it seems like none of those healers actually know how to heal. Then of course it also happens to be a Hypergate as well... Then in huttball there's always that 1 sage pug that's standing as the perfect leap target for an easy score for the other team. It's always the sage... Always

To purchase a full set from the GTN will be about 6-7 mil. I would suggest trying that

Snipers generally stayed away from the hybrid spec pre 2.0 just because everything died too fast to get anything done. I think the hybrid may be abit more plausible now because things can take longer to kill, but I also still think the full specs are much better for pvp still

Jacksonville, more specifically Ponte Vedra Beach

Wasn't hybrid snipers, hybrid gunslingers. Shock charge(IP) for gunslinger also counts toward wounding shots(cull), so a hybrid gunslinger could hypothetically just use say vital shot(Corrosive dart) and shock charge then wounding shots and still have the full effect. When all 3 dots are applied however wounding shots still only uses 2 dots. Sorry for pub terms, I use them because it only applies to them, or at least that is what I was told

Just by going off tooltip damage I wouldn't throw it in your rotation unless you got multiple targets, then I'd say roll away! As far as cull damage I'm not sure if it does count as another poison, but the hybrid gunslingers have discovered that cull has a hidden cap of 2 poison effects on it, so you will not be able to get 3 poison culls

They reduced the expertise you receive from archaism gear, not sure by how much tho

To make the offhand be balanced with the sniper rifle offhands have much less accuracy then a mainland, so while 2 pistols can do more damage then sniper rifles together snipers are more consistent with their damage. Another thing that helps balance this is sniper rifles having a higher weapon damage attached as well. 2 pistols = bigger hits less often 1 sniper = slightly smaller hits more consistent This also explains how he managed to have so many misses but still have a great parse, all the misses were offhand So in the end it becomes very balanced. The only difference really is when gunslingers use Target Aquired(illegal mods for them) their offhand also gets the accuracy, so they get a slightly bigger buff from it then we do. But eh, I like by bigarse sniper rifle better

Offhand?

Now that tionese/columi/Rataka gear is unobtainable now and not viable to use can we get the energized(tionese grade schematics) and exotech schematics to be BoE? Some of the shells are actually kinda nice and I'd like to get them on alts. It would be a nice gesture to sythweavers and armormechs at least

Donna doesn't have enough sparkle powder. I propose everybody once a week send her 20 powder. Please help! You can donate more if you want as well, and all donations will be accepted. Just mail to donna

Yeah I tried that the 1st time around but said sent found that alacrity was better when he tried it. Said sentinel also got beat out by a smasher by several hundred... On a dummy

If it makes you feel any better sages/sorcs can't super bubble EN as well

This, it's called serendipitous assault I think

That's what I run on my sniper, it's so nice. Got him a hooligan's hat to go with it My favorite is a tie between Robe of Deception and Xenotech Force Master's robes, both are fantastic Also is there going to be any way to get xenotech gear anymore? Or are those going to end up like the ultramesh(not 100% on name) being uncontainable? If so the Xeno wins for me

Can't, time and the fact I only use the forums on my phone
