Bushranger Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Simply because half of my attacks are deflected by sorcerers, assassins, marauaders and juggernauts that dont even USE cooldowns ot increse the deflection chance... With cooldowns up the classes become immortal agains tsnipers Here he goes again...Dude there is no way you have 50's of every class you cry about. You should just quit the game so we don't have to read your cry baby post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaknaphein Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Troll post. Get 5% accuracy and their baseline 5% defense chance against your specials is eliminated. Also, spec hybrid Engi\MM. It's amazing. Yup accuracy definately needed for snipers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keninblack Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I'm trying to figure out why there's 4 pages of posts on something that seems to be already done. You deleted your 50 sniper, roll a sorc / merc and move on. /thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowingzero Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 My only regret is that I can only deflect, and not reflect, which is what I think should happen. Quai-Gon did it in the movies why can't I! (I don't care if Quai-Gon is spelled wrong, too lazy to google) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tovenar Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I think snipers are one of the best classes in the game. They leave no "trail". As a sorc all my attacks but dots seem to leave some sort of trail from my hand to their character. Making it VERY easy for them to find me. However with snipers I end up getting snipped or ambushed and am like whereeeeee are uuuuuuuuuuuuuu! In other news Snipers are defeated by close range combat, later, snipers that hide and take cover kill everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DestyOwn Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) No Good Sniper Will Stack accuracy over 98% , you lose so much damage potential by getting what 2% more ACC. 98% is the sweet spot for PVE, because of bosses having an 8% deflect chance. and FIY all your attacks except Rifle shot uses the Tech Accuracy. So 98% would equal 108% across the board for every ability except rifle shot ACC is currently the worst stats to stack for snipers. So get 98% and deal with the few deflects...

Kalantris Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 In before he learns that his attacks can be deflected even by mere sorcerers Sorcs/Sages have 10% deflection chance and no cooldowns to increase that.

The difference between tech/force and ranged is they can't be shielded/avoided. That's a huge advantadge for specs/classes which use this kind of power because they can stack stats to do more damage instead getting cockblocked. People seems to forget you can't crit if you get shielded also.. To be fair, tech/force shouldn't bypass shield/avoidance neither. It's funny how people say stack accuracy as a response, instead taking into account most classes can forget about accuracy and get damage instead. Everybody or noone should have to stack accuracy. Not saying gunslingers are broken, but it's a bad game design. For example cover only works against... snipers.

Furyofwar Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) Well your the only smart sniper then. This class is complete garbage in pvp sadly.If you notice a sniper taking cover near a object. Kill him with auto attacks and LoS him when hes about 80% of his attacks lol. I feel bad for snipers hope they get something to fix the cover weakness they currently dealing with.

Not saying gunslingers are broken, but it's a bad game design. For example cover only works against... snipers. I type the wrong term, It's Special Attack Accuracy that has a base of 100% So with 98% Base accuracy you would have 108% Special attack accurcy. Sniper Spected as MM have 2 Tech attacks and the rest are all Weapon damage (White damage) But it was proven that every ability except Rifle shot uses Special attack accuracy. So you would have 108% accuracy across the board. They still deflect but at least you don't have to stack accuracy to get over 100% Normal accuracy. And Yes i agree, it doesnt make sense that a class need's to get accuracy when force classes only need 4 stats... Willpower-Crit-Power-Surge ( all the damaging stats) Meanwhile snipers have to waste 2 enhencements to get their accuracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furyofwar Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 (edited) As a valor 56 Sniper, I disagree with this statement. Your crazy if you think your class is even remotely effective near any rocks/walls/nodes/or anything for that matter. I will LoS you all day an pick you off without getting hit once. In fact you make Tracer Missile Merc's Feel Mobile. Cover is the worse class mechanic in this game for PvP.

BoDiE Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Instead of deleting your character, I would have probably equipped some accuracy gear. We all know he didn't do anything if the sort though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
