Chaqa Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 We learn during the Trooper storyline that Jorgan is a former sniper and was commanding officer of the Dead Eyes, the Republics elite sniper unit. Now my question is why is he equipped with a canon and not a sniper rifle? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilTsar Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 because then there would be a purpose, if only a small one, for the over 9000 aim-based sniper rifles in the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Therael Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Jorgan is such an elite sniper that he hits targets at 500m using iron sights on an assault cannon. Scopes are a crutch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jandi Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Does ANYONE Republic-side use a sniper rifle? Maybe a companion? Zenith does, consular dps comp. Not even a companion on the imp sire use cannons though, so cry moar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LilTsar Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 ya, but the sniper companions are all cunning based, not aim, like jorgan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngelousWang Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Kaylio and Qyzen, used to be Aim Tank Snipers, that why they existed. Of course that was along time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pubsam Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 Yeah I kinda wish Jorgan used a real rifle. It's sad when you roll Commando and get your huge cannon and you're like, "SWEET" and Jorgan's like, "Oh this thing, I've had one forever." Or maybe Jorgan's just TOO good with a sniper rifle so he uses a cannon so as not to overshadow you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pubsam Posted April 5, 2012 Share Posted April 5, 2012 ya, but the sniper companions are all cunning based, not aim, like jorgan. Eh they made Elara the only Aim based healer (I think). I would say that that they didn't want Jorgan with a rifle since there's no corresponding class he'd match up with (ie Mako is a scoundrel, Kaliyo is a powertech etc.) but then I'd have to ignore all the Aim based melee companions like Qyzen.
