snipershot. since you have to ge into concealment then wait for a long *CENSORED* timer i think either the dmg should be increased or the timer shortened

I still haven't figured out why sniper shot seems to kick m out of concealment, and then give me a message 'You must be concealed to use this ability' :smileyindifferent:

If you're using any other combat style than rifles, clicking sniper shot will switch you to rifles style and boot you out of concealment.

It's a tad incovenient if you're mixing styles. I would recommend either making changing styles not pop stealth, or  making concealment automatically switch you to rifles.

Eventhough Sniper was one tree I knew I wanted from when I purchased the game,  I'm still not as good of a sniper as some, like Kryt or Tseng. But just messing around with this tree some on EP I noticed  a player really has to be very patient and that still doesn't guarntee a successful shot. Setting up for a sniper shot has to be one of the most tedious routines of any class, so if you happen to break concelament mid-way through it's quite frustrating. On top of the fact that Snipers have to do that twice for a kill on another level 50, and at a maximum of 30 m nonetheless.

/sign for this - I like SMG/Sniper combo, it's a lot of fun, but killing someone then not switching to rifles and having to come out of concealment because of this is annoying.

If you use Line up the shot while concealed, you will become visible for a split second too.  The animation looks like you just putting on an invisibility belt.  I don't think your stance should change when activating line up the shot.  Submitted a /bug for this, see if it happens.

Also if someone is looking right at you as you use line up the shot you come out of sneak. Line up the shot takes you out of concealment for a split second before placing you back in. This normally isnt a problem but can be if you are around a lot of enemies.
