There’s two traits that really worry me about this spec. Everything else I love so far.

The first one is Peripheral Vision. Correct me if I am wrong, but this seems like a trait that you will -rarely- get value out of, unless the trait modifies the steal table. If I am not mistaken, there’s not a lot of stolen skills that seems like it could benefit.

And Silent Scope (which I would rather call it kitten Good Ground, <3 XCOM), which makes an important ability in the rifle line up pretty kitten expensive for the fact that you become immobile and cloaked. Using that in combat would just be a bad idea.

Deadeye stolen skills are already different than Thief stolen skills. We’ve only seen one (two? afaik) of Deadeye’s so there’s not a lot of speculation you can make.

Silent Scope just transforms the Kneel skill into Sniper’s Cover. We haven’t seen Kneel itself so there’s no information, but you’ll be immobile either way.

So you are saying the dead eye gets a completely different steal table?

Yes, it’s already known that the steal table is different for deadeye. What they steal is still up in the air however.

Hopefully some armor-piercing rounds…:)
