Hi,
Id like to ask about Fast Shot ...

1) All ranged attack (except bursts) cost -1 AP
2) Cannot aim

Does it effect something else ? Does it decrease critical chance too?

My question is... why BG Burster builds do not use Fast Shot  and most builds I have seen are taking just one Trait. I know Fast Shot do not effects bursts, but... it could be useful when want to shot with Rocketlauncher.

So, does Fast Shot effect critical chance ?
Is it the same critical chance when
player A with Fast Shot uses minigun burst
as player B uses minigun burst without Fast Shot trait ?

(when u use burst - you cannot aim, so I suppose the critical chance is cumputed as torso aim each time, isnt it?)

Thank you

No.

Rocket Launcher can aim? no? So fast shot doesn't affect it.

All weapons that can be aimed, lose that feature but cost 1 less AP, and Rocket launchers CANT BE AIMED.

I personally find fast shot a very decent trait for a crafter, since they will be doing PVE mostly, Fast Shot helps you  level up much faster, and it also works quite good with plasma pistols too, although aimed shots are a must for PVP,  a very lucky critical on someones hand to cripple it can easily turn the cards in your favor

I was just thinking about taking this trait... wondered about it... searched...

This answered all my questions

Two-handed weapons get -2AP, so you can get some good damage with 6-7 shot/turn laser/plasma rifle build. Especially in TB:)

I read somewhere in the bugs section about this and apparently fast shot also adds some damage to shots (looking for thread right now)

Pretty certain this is a lie.

Pretty certain you haven't tried Fast Shot yet.

[peruniec]

I read somwhere that if you have fastshot, you hit always torso, and if you dont have it, you hit random body part (arm, head ect) and if you hit by random head you have more chance for crit, but it is true ?

Pretty certain you haven't met one of those guys yet:)

Check out some turn-based encounters near Boneyard if you want proof...

my bad i apologise. So if your firing a plasma rifle at 5ap you can fast shot to get it down to 3 ap and then brof to get it to two?

[toothpix]

Yup, and it's quite powerful if they let you fire all those shots...

Yes that is true. those builds are devastating in Turn based. (unless facing tesla that is)

[Killy]

gl u will need a ton of ammo, dunno where   u are gonna spend more time fighting in tb or diging ore in mines

who really crafts mfc, it was daft last session and not much better this one. So much easier to just blast a few muties.
