Thelgow Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 I see these are great for tier 1 skills. When should we get them? More beneficial early on or pump Marksman to get followthrough or higher first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagnumBM Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 (edited) I went Marksman up to lvl 40 and then took the other talent trees. Although I would suggest you get Followtrough and then go the support talents. I don't have any math on this but I personally don't find the Series of Shots talent all that usefull, at least not usefull enough to rush up to it.

TaiRevant Posted December 22, 2011 Share Posted December 22, 2011 Personally I feel the passive boosts are more benifical to grab first as it effects you through out the lvls. The extra skills might be nice but the 9% cunning and 6% crit boosts are very helpful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aiwan Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 (edited) As a marksman, I personally want Followthrough (and it's energy+cd reduction) as soon as possible - so the other trees will have to wait. After that, I might consider doing them first. Edited December 23, 2011 by Aiwan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayestes Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 (edited) It's arguable whether you should get either: Rapid Shots Offensive Cooldown 30% Crit Damage on Followthrough, Takedown, Series of Shots 15 seconds off of the Entrench and Orbital Strike Cooldown or 9% Cunning Increase 10 Extra Energy 6% Critical Strike Personally, if I didn't think Rapid Shots was so awesome in PvP at level 40 then it wouldn't even be a choice. Followthrough achieved and talented cannot be delayed, as it not only improves burst DPS by a fair margin it is the only energy positive ability we have besides Rifle Shots which means it improves our sustained DPS by a large factor. Once you get Followthrough, it's a choice on improving your stats vs. getting harsher crits and a powerful offensive cooldown to use.

Bangorango Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 (edited) get followthough asap..then get the 2 stat PERCENT increases...they are huge cuz its a PERCENT...though the increase to crit chance, i'm having a hard time trying to see if my stats actually increase finish off mm tree then fuel tanks can wait imho or even ignored...percent increase to endurance looks better imho percent increases are great..the higher the base value, the more you get..and your values will only go up Edited December 23, 2011 by Bangorango Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tokran Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Or you could just get the things that boost you up to help you level and then when Followthrough is available respec... Thats what i'm planning to do. The lower marksman talents aren't all that great, 9% cunning however is a good advantage from the start on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fentanyl Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 Or you could just get the things that boost you up to help you level and then when Followthrough is available respec... It's all about how you plan to level. I was in a duo with an Operative healer and neither of us wanted to respec on our way to 50. I went full Marksmanship and the Operative went full Medic. Personal preference, really. If you don't want to respec on your way to 50, get Energy Tanks, Lethality, and Gearhead later in the leveling process. Otherwise? It's up to you.
