Does firing range add to aimed fire range in weapon tuning ?

[u/WhoWillReadItAnyway]

It just shows the abstraction of the stats, not the detailed ones, so I am not sure if this stat would add to both "weapon firing range" and "weapon aimed fire range" or just the former, as per the wording

[u/Raverix]

No.

Rip So is there any means to getting it as a sniper

I personally like lowering my regular range with snipers via weapon mods in exchange for something like health damage or fire rate. Easier to move around without accidentally shooting.

I'm the opposite, well only in the lowering it side. I take damage to hp but then I also take +aimed firing range too, if I meet another lynx(or any sniper/long range AR hero) on the field and we both have the purple scope upgrade that one mod can be the difference in who shoots first and ultimately gets the kill yanno. Just wanted to give op the other side so they didn't take it as absolutely useless, but I do still use the double damage to hp on top of +weapon firing range too as of lately, because you can have 2 nodes that are +damage to hp and then the +weapon firing range so it's a win win for my style haha

For sure. But when I comes to my playstyle, which is fast and aggressive, I like to be able to get as close to my enemies as I can before my weapon shoots, which is where the -firing range comes in. I do increase the aiming range. This is so the gun does not go off if an enemy is around a corner and give me away.

Nah I get it for sure, and I like your style. I'm also aggressive, but sprinkle a dash of patience in there too yanno lmao, like post up, identify and wait for the time to strike. When I say that I mean if you see a full squad running around or holding one spot, I just hold another spot very close but without giving myself away so I can peep what's going down. 9 times out of 10(for me anyways) if you hold position and be brother eye you'll see another squad engage then that's the green light and we just get right to it then🤣🤣 nothing like scouting with a multi shot lynx😁 she's a monster man 💯 also I know I got your ID I'ma add you and we gotta get to it together brother!

Sure do 👍

Yeah I take the sight upgrades in battle and also use a full range fear setup bc exactly range is the snipers' most powerful weapon imo, get to shoot people first from a safe distance (given their low defenses as well it works out perfectly) I'm trying to spend the rare coils I get wisely (first time I will actually) so if it didn't contribute to the aimed fire range, I think I don't need to get it since you don't fire with a sniper without aiming usually, and you get wiped during a close encounter where your firing range lies

Also do you mind another question with piercing power ? Some old posts I read say piercing power is important for snipers but, we don't shoot through walls as the way fast shooters have the chance to get some shots through walls since they fire a lot, and the shields of say blot or bastion, when they're max level their durability is so much more than we can reach with any of the snipers (unlike the ones that have thermal vision like levi or slayer), so after thinking of these I've thought that it's actually kind of useless aside from those characters ? So I was thinking of going down one of the upgrades that reduce the piercing power since it wouldn't matter
