Rifleman

Description

The rifleman professions allows one to use proficiently use rifles which are the longest ranged weapons in the game at 64 meters. Rifles are typically inaccurate in close quarters with the exception of the Spraystick though there are a pair of close range abilities, pointBlankSingle1 and pointBlankArea1, which help alleviate this weakness. This profession tends to specialize in high single-target damage and incorporates a unique "in-cover" state which is required to use the two abilities concealShot and surpriseShot while providing additional ranged defense.
