Hello guys and welcome back to SWTOR Central!
In this video i'll be taking you through the classes, Sniper and Gunslinger so
you can decide if either one is the class you want to play, out of the 16 in total that
you can choose from!
We'll be going over combat playstyle and story!
But don't worry, there won't be any spoilers!
Let's start with combat playstyle.
The Sniper and Gunslinger are both ranged damage dealers.
The sniper of course, does use a Sniper Rifle.
The Gunslinger however, dual wields blaster pistols.
That being said, these classes are mirrored.
So although they use different weapons, they both still have the same paths and abilities,
just with different names and animations.
With these classes you'll be spending most of your time "in cover"
dealing damage from afar.
But don't for a second think that these classes have a disadvantage in
melee range, in fact, when played very well, the Sniper can be just as hard to kill as
a Tank.
These classes in particular are quite different from all the others, in the regard of mobility.
While yes they can move around and even have a roll ability much like the Operative and
Scoundrel, to get the most out the classes, you'll need
to be stationary.
This is compensated though through good defensive abilities and great utility
points to take.
It's also arguable that these classes are among the best in the game for damage
dealing, and I don't just mean in this current patch.
They have been consistently good through out the games existance.
The learning curve to master these classes can be considered steep, but
it is still fairly easy to be introduced to the classes
and learn through experience as with others.
Some of the note worthy abilites the Sniper has are
the long distance roll, which you may recognise from the Operative and Scoundrel, however
this roll travels further and can be used a second time
with the use of another ability.
You'll also have a large shield which can be placed around your
group, which is great for both PvP and PvE.
Last but not least, you'll have the "XS Frieghter flyby"
with the gunslinger and "Orbital strike" with the Sniper.
These are some of the most unique abilities in the game, and can be very fun to use!
Let's move onto Discipline paths.
Not forgetting what I mentioned earlier about these classes being
mirrored, they are the same in almost every way other than having different ability names
and animations.
It's also very important to understand what discipline paths are, as they decide what
kind of Sniper or Gunslinger you're going to be.
Each class has 3 paths to choose from, all of these paths are focused on
dealing damage.
These classes can not take on any other combat role.
For the Sniper your options are, Marksman, Virulence and Engineering.
For the Gunslinger you have, Sharpshooter, Saboteur and Dirty fighting.
Let's begin with the Sniper.
Marksman is a path focused on single target burst damage.
You'll have access to abilities with names such as "Ambush" and "Sniper Volley".
This is probably the easiest of the three to learn, if you are
a new player who isn't familliar with SWTOR combat.
With this path you can sit back from afar and
just focus all your damage onto one enemy, that being said, that one enemy will be killed
very quickly if they don't defend themself, even
then, it might be too late.
Next up is the path Engineering.
This path focuses on AoE and some burst damage.
AoE stand for "Area of Effect" which basically means you can deal damage to an area of enemies
vs just one target.
You'll have access to abilities with names such as "Explosive probe" and "EMP
Discharge".
This one is arguably the hardest to master, when you do master it, only the most
formiddable of foes will stand a chance against you.
Just remember, that with great power, comes great
responsibility.
This path also has great utlity abilities and plenty of cc and stuns.
Making this a preferred spec for PvP, but that doesn't
mean it's the best.
It's still very good for PvE too.
Next up is the path Virulence.
This path focuses on DoT damage and a some burst, DoT stands for "damage
over time".
Virulence can be easier to learn for a new player, as the rotation is quite simple as
far as getting high damage goes.
But, there is a learning curve to be seen when trying to master this
path.
You'll have access to abilities with names such as "corrosive grenade" and "Lethal shot".
The main premise of this path is to apply your dots to a target and use your burst ability
"cull" to dish out the damage.
Now moving onto the Gunslinger.
I'll go through the paths in the same order.
First up is the path, Sharpshooter, which is the mirrored version of the Snipers Marksman.
You'll have access to abilities with names such as "aimed shot" and "Burst volley".
With this path you'll be focused on dealing damage from afar on one target.
As mentioned before, this one target will be pretty quick to die
if they do not defend themselves.
This path hits very hard in a short amount of time.
The burst damage offered here, is quite considerable.
Next up is the path, Saboteur.
This is the mirrored version of the Snipers Engineering path.
You'll have access to abilities with names such as "Shock charge" and "Sabotage".
This path focuses on AoE damage, which is damage you deal to an area of enemies, along
with some burst.
As stated before, this is arguably the most difficult path of the three to learn.
This path is also one that is preferred for PvP as it outputs a high amount of damage
to an area of players, and can be quite nusiance to an
enemy team who isn't prepared to deal with it.
This path is still very good for PvE, too.
Lastly we have the path, Dirty Fighting.
This is the mirrored version of the Snipers Virulence.
This path focuses on DoT damage, which is damage over time abilities and some burst
damage.
You'll have access to abilities with names such as "Wounding shots" and "Dirty blast".
This can be an easier to path to learn but even harder to master, you will become a force
to be reckoned with.
We'll see how the force users hold up when you throw a Shrap bomb at their face.
Let's move onto Story.
Now seeing as the Sniper and Gunslinger share the same story line as the Operative and Scoundrel,
I'll give you the same rundown I did before.
Starting with the Sniper..
This class starts you out on the planet Hutta.
As you can tell from the name, you'll be meeting Hutt's.
Now the Sniper story is one of the leading stories in this game.
It has been written and executed in a way that get's you very
immersed and excited to see what happens next.
On your arrival to Hutta, you're mission is to go undercover and convince a powerful Hutt
to ally with the Empire.
You'll use deception and phony accents to worm your way in.
Which isn't the first time you'll make use of such skills.
Eventually you'll find yourself falling down the rabbit
hole and discovering a few things that lead you to investigate allies.
This storyline is the perfect example of how a non force user can
influence the Empire and change it's due course.
This breif summary is all you'll get from me, as this story should be experienced first
hand by yourself.
Now we have the Gunslinger storyline.
Have you ever wanted to be a rebelish, none law abiding space cowboy?
Well, now's your chance.
The Gunslinger storyline has you starting on the war stricken world of Ord Mantell,
where you promptly arrive to smuggle weapons.
You will see some resemblance of the Smugglers ship, to
that of the Ebon hawk.
I can confirm, they are not the same ship.
It's still cool though...
After some trouble upon landing you later find out your ship was stolen, along with
the goods you planned to sell.
The Gunslinger story takes a big leap eventually, from smuggling a few blasters
to intervening with politics.
Becoming involved with corruption and doing the right thing to save
a lot of lives...
But of course, for a price!
You may not be a powerful Sith or Jedi, but your
powers of "wise cracks" and "Narcisissm" can be just as effective!
Instead of being the badass who doesn't look at explosions while walking
away, you're the type of badass that watches the
explosion and complains about how small it was after all that work you put into blowing
it up!
Okay ladies and gentleman, I hope that this video somewhat helped you decide whether or
not you want to play the Sniper or Gunslinger.
