I've been thinking of making an SR for some time now while working on my sin... My question is...

Are SRs worth it? Or should I not waste my time. Can sometime give me like a list of Pros and Cons for SRs or something? Opinions? Something? Thanks ^^

Pros of SR:

Long range AoE that you can extend DoT time and increase DoT damage
Have high attack power attacking from afar
You can save your teammates still with HT
Easy to max in BF

Cons of SR:

Only two long range skills that do damage
You have a lot of melee skills that you wont really use
You don't have a 7 second stun (Although you don't need it)
Xbow doesn't increase CAD/SCAD unless its TB bow
Repetitive pattern of EA PA AA dash dash
Long CD (sort of)
When leveling up you play as sin because Xbow damage doesn't get good until 60+

Lol sorry i wasn't considering the 70+ Xbows =P

if i was playing sr, i would use rh or bisk xbow +10 or so untill 75 to save carus xeons, and 75 xbow wins against any other just cos of its insane dmg

Well technically srs have a 6 second stun with ambush, I still use that skill every so often. And how could you forget sniping!

To be honest, sniping is a high level skill really only works on AA attacks, usually people open with EA then PA AA AA AA, so the extra range is only good for chasing. And I'm assuming pixel wont reach 79 on SR maybe 65. and 10pts on ambush? 0.o... that doesnt fit in with my build xD. But yeah ambush on SR? I don't get close unless I'm helping a teammate otherwise it's EA in stealth to make up for casting speed.

Yea my sr for now is 65, and I wouldn't call it a twink, but my gear is prolly average/ above average.
First off, my ambush is at 5 which gives it the full 6 seconds, and again, I don't use it that often, but if a sin scuds a teammate, you bet your ass I'll be ambushing him.
While I do get a lot of kills through EA and pa, that doesn't mean sniping doesn't have a place in foc 65. The extra 4m is great in many situations. Chasing is 1 of them, but many times I find myself out of stealth with it on cooldown, so I pop it on and get a few kills while it's off.
Any sr that doesn't have ht an ambush at 3 and 5 respectively I think is wasting a lot of potential, but then again, maybe that's why everyone hates srs so much because idk anyone that plays sr like I do in foc 65

I see a lot of SRs that go Pew Pew Pew Pew run run run...

Me sometimes because I'm not a fool to stick around when there are more than 5 from other team that can easily kill me.

I usually EA to sins because a sin under DoT is a useless sin lol (In most cases)
And when I play my sin sometimes its fun to play as stun cannon (Scud and retreat) in groups

But it is fun sometimes to EA near a single person, HT then slash them to death lol...

I do more damage with my duals that my xbow =/ but I still have to gear up.
