strike105x Posted January 8, 2011 Posted January 8, 2011 (edited) Hi, i got a few questions regarding the sniper in FO3: 1st. Is the Sniper considered to be part of the small arms category ?2nd. Is their a perk that stops the sniper from shacking so much so that its easier to aim ?3rd. luck, perception and agility are the stats i should focus right ?4th. Any useful perk advices ? Thank you in advance Edited January 8, 2011 by strike105x
Fonger Posted January 8, 2011 Posted January 8, 2011 1 - yes 2 - none of the above - its related to gun skill 3 - luck of other reasons 4 - better criticals -- sniper in vats is not that useful as you'll learn to snipe freeform for greater returns 5 - look into the available alternate ammo - and if a mod allows you JSP
TheOriginalEvilD Posted January 10, 2011 Posted January 10, 2011 Get 100 in small guns, get Ol' Painless (decent damage, cheap and easy to find ammo), snipe from outside VATS for best result.
7thsealord Posted January 11, 2011 Posted January 11, 2011 Any perk that does interesting things to damage or crits. 'Finesse' and 'Bloody Mess' come immediately to mind, but there are others. IMO, don't COMPLETELY rule out VATS as a tactical option, either. If you can't one-shot something but want to at least disarm it (eg. Overlord + TriBarrel, or ANYTHING with a FatMan), or if just short on time, then VATS may be a way to go. Noting that the 'Sniper' perk is a VATS thing, and 'Commando' is worth considering in that mode as well.
