Snap Shot Penalty Bug?

Post by gbudiman »

I can't seem to remove the snap shot penalty on my sniper. Even after 2 turns not moving, only doing 'Steady Weapon', the snap shot penalty is still there giving 0% hit chance. Making snapshot-sniper utterly useless?

Suggest you read the explanatory text under the yellow ? on the perk in the perk tree.

Basically you are misunderstanding how Snap Shot works. It's always on -- it fundamentally changes your sniper into someone who can move and shoot with the rifle, but suffers severe range penalties beyond 5 tiles of squadsight range. This isn't EU Snap Shot, but more like the Marksman's Rifles from Long War.
