Sniper Assassin Hack
Dorian Aldrege
Special Ops Sniper Brandon Beckett is set up as the primary suspect for the murder of a foreign dignitary on the eve of signing a high-profile trade agreement with the United States. Narrowly escaping death, Beckett realizes that there may be a dark operative working within the government and partners with the only person whom he can trust, his father, legendary Sniper Master Gunnery Sgt. Thomas Beckett. Both Becketts are on the run from the CIA, Russian mercenaries, and a Yakuza-trained assassin with sniper skills that rival both legendary sharpshooters.
I started in the office room and slipped out of the house immediately after the target entered and then I found an open area in the beach and prepared my Sieger 300 Tactical sniper rifle. When the target got out of her bed room for a breath, I took her out in the head. Then I evacuated safly.
I tried again. But this time I wait until the target fell asleep, then shot her with the same sniper rifle, and hide the body in the chest (otherwise it would be found by her boyfriend awaked by whatever method I use to lure away the guards near my boat).

The Bleak Huntresses are an ancient female order among Bleak Walkers. Cold hearted murderesses, relentless hunters that strike from the dark, hunting their prey for weeks or even months... for reward and for joy of kill. Not much is known about them, as their targets never knew they were coming. Sometimes it's bullet in the head from tower in city, sometimes arrow in heart from dark woods or heavy belt in spine from rooftop. They come, they kill, they vanish. Always from distance, always precise, never personal. Patient like spiders on web. For them target is just an animal to hunt.... a warm thrill necessary to wake a little spark in their stone-cold hearts...
They say bleak huntresses not only take life but also feed on soul, that they need to kill or they go insane. Some say they are vampires or half-demons. Most say it's just a ghost stories. One is sure- if Bleak Huntress is after you- she will hunt you, she will find you, and she will kill you.
Level 8 Deadlight Fortress- PotD, scalling only, ony up + difficulty mod. Note that my character is geared up due to B.Blessings, my knowledge of game after 2 full solo games and using a steal method from vendors: -spoiler-easy-method-to-steal-vendors-most-valuable-items/.
I was thining about Ranger at first but: A) while they have nice accuracy abilities, they lack of alpha damage and best skill are very late. Companions are useless. So I went with Assassin. Sneak Attack + Assassinate plays very well with afflictions on enemies, which rogues can infict (Hobbled, Blinded, Dazed etc.) and offers great escape tool (Smoke Veil + Escape) that plays really well together with Assassinate, though it's bit tricky sometimes to use.
Now the question was what to combine it with. Of course Fighter was my initial though but I was leaning against it: not only it has poor roleplay fluff for this build, but also while Penetrating Strike is great and Weapon Specialization too It was still not alpha dmg I was looking for and I needed second class for spamming power attacks. Fighter have to waste too many resources imo for things like Disc. Strikes or Vig. Defense. Also if I need a strong Penetrating Strikes I can always use Ring The Bell from Rogue so I didn't want to double it. Black Jack was a valid option but I didn't want to run "switch build" as I don't find it ammusing and with right gear and "speed reload" i reload as fast as Black Jack can switch before picking "Fast Switch" from fighter in later levels that I gave up on this.
So my final choice was Bleak Walker due to several reasons: first of all: huge Alpha Damage ability right from the start: Flames of Devotion: 25% burn + 15% Corrode and +10 Accuracy. Later combining that with Sworn Rival +20% dmg gives me huge shots for extra 60% dmg and +10 accuracy. Also with Sworn Rival and Zeal cost back on kill I pretty much have it for 1 Zeal which is huge. Later in game I can also get 1 Zeal back per kill giving me more options with that Range weapon than with Fighter. Devoted was out of question as I wanted to be able to play with Both arquebus, arbalest and their excellent modals and being able to switch without penatlies to other range weapons or melee weapons when needed. Devoted is nice but that +2 Pen was imo not worth. Also we have here Focus Aura (always good) and Lay on Hands, which allows you to skip Athlethics for Arcana.
Also thx to Bleak Walker we apply affliction on FoD which will always gives us on second attack against same target Sneak Attack bonus. Later we also get lash from FoD upgrade. So to sum it up: For 1 Zeal after taking Sworn Enemy + Fod Upgrade we have: +10 Acc, 60% bonus damage +10% Lash from attacks, free affliction for enemy. Also big thing was Paladin Passive +21 defenses. With Fighter I have to constantly make sure it's on with Vig.Def, waste 2 resources on it. And you don't want to be CCed while you reload your weapons. With Paladin it's just there and i can burn Zeal on dmg and don't worry about defenses. Also it gives nice roleplay stuff
We combine high burst from FoD, it's low cost, free Sworn Enemy spam after that and free affliction on target with initial alpha strikes of Assassinate and Sneak Attack to remove most dangerous target/s. Since we do not try to assassinate in melee, we don't need high Sneak skill. We only have to get to position to snipe enemy away. Hence why I didn't took backstab. The further you are- the more opportunity you have to finish recovery and for example use Smoke Veil to dissapear, reset fight and start from Assassinate again or to continue (after reload is done) with another fast Assassinate attack. We have Escape also for when we need to reposition. We have great defenses and self heal.
RACE: Aftrer you get specific armor (later about that) Nature Godlike becomes great becasue you start every combat with Wellspring on. Of course Hearth Orlan is also great option. I went with pale elf cause like elfs and wanted to match my portrait . You don't really need to min max race here, though the first two would work much better than elf here .
A. Fast Reload- when you attacked a target and your reload animation start, clikc ONCE (and only once) on target you want to attack (either by just attack or ability that attack like FoD). This will shorten greatly a reload animation on a range weapon like Arbalest and Arquebus giving you a huge dps boost. Using this method also allows us to ignore all -Reload Time bonuses like from gear or from abilities. You will reload as fast with them and without them.
B. Second free shot after initial shot. With any range weapon after we shot first time from sneak attack before combat start we immidietly have another free shot after it. Dunno why, probably game resets weapons on combat start and since our first shot is out of combat- it happens. So we delete one target and we can either immideitly follow on different one or use second free shot to finish the one we tried to delete innitially.
C. No recovery after using firearm. So after a shot weapon need to be reloaded. However that does not trigger Recovery. Recovery and Reload and 2 different things. That means that after a shot (or 2 shots if first was from the sealth) we can use Smoke Veil or Escape to get out of there and play our fight like we want. This won't work with weapon swap as that triggers recovery.
D. Smoke Veil usage for Assassination- Smoke Veil makes you invisible, which allows for another Assassinate. However stupid game designe made it that it turn itself off before full duration because it breaks engagment/combat, and you are left in the middle of enemies 2,7 seconds before your invisibility should end. What that means- that means that if you want to use Smoke Veil to trigger next assassination you need to have your weapon reloaded first. That gives you enough time to use it after smoke veil rocovery. If you won't despite having enough time on decription- you won't be able to reload and shot after using SV (even with Fast Reload tric) because it will end. Timing is quite tigh here, but possible to do and it gives that "Huntress" feeling in combat. I will probably put later a mod that fixed that stupidity.
Another trick is to use summon from any summon item after first two shots of Arquebus. This will make enemies stay in combat and so make your Smoke Veil also stay in combat. I burnt all my gold so I didn't grab one yet on video above.
E. Reload has nothing to do with recovery if you use fast reload trick. I tested this with naked + blazing fury (-75% recovery) and with full Plate +55% recovery armor. That means that you can use whatever armor you like and your dps will still be the same as long as you stick to reload only range weapons. Recovery will kick when using bows.
Stats: Max Might, Max Perception is what I would aim for. if you have B.Blessing you can start game with +2 to all attributes too. Accuracy is most important for us. We do not want to miss a shot. Period.
For Skills: I went with Arcana for Spearcaster Arbalest Accuracy bonus (+5 base and scales with Arcana and it scales great). It's our main weapon after initial shots with Dragons Dowyr so we want to make sure we can Crit with it and that we hit with it. It scales really well with Arcana.
