I had the idea for a marksman/sniper class in guild wars 2, a Marksman would be a light armored class using rifles primarily and with the option of using either daggers or a shortsword with a weapons switch. a marksman’s rifle skills would revolve around one skill, taking more or less 15 seconds to use the auto attack skill and having other skills, such as crippling shot (immobilize an enemy for 2-3 seconds, and cripple them for 5-7), critical shot (double chance to do a critical hit, as well as say a stack of 3 bleeding for 5 seconds) poison shot (poison an enemy) and stunning shot (stunning a enemy for more or less 5 seconds). Marksmans shots would have a a very long range, possibly 2000-3000 (dont know what the game range measurement is), and take longer to take the shot and do less damage at further range, and have the shot leave something similar to a smoke trail, lingering in the air for 10-15 seconds from where the shot was taken to its destination, and every 15 seconds be able to take off maybe a 1/3 or 1/4 of a targets health, decreasing if its a heavy armor class and a slight decrease if its a medium armor class. a Marksman could have armor that makes the wearer invisible when he is sitting still for approximately 30 seconds and make him semi visible when he is moving, but have all visual masking removed for maybe a minute after he fires. sword/dagger skills would be rather standard, only for use in close range. slot skills 6-0 could be dedicated towards possibly triggering a bomb, to mask where the marksman is, and possibly camouflage nets and other masking/ mobility buff skills.

I know this seems like a pretty overpowered profession, but it needs nerfs and this is the second time i have posted this, after making revisions due to ideas given by the first time i posted this, please leave an idea for a nerf or a change, please nothing non-related to this post

Warrior pretty much is the sniper class when using rifle.

20k crits in WvW can be a good laugh.
