Range, Accuracy & perception

[Michi]

Thanks!

But to drill down on my question....

Lets say I have Boar (perception of 1) and Kruger (perception 9).

They both have the same pipe rifle, and 100 skill in heavy weapons.

Standing side by side, Kruge is going to detect the enemy way before Boar, obviously. But once Kruger has detected the enemy, both of them can shoot.

My question is, will Boar have the same chance to hit (both have 100 in heavy weapons and the same weapon) or does Perception still play a role?

I am NOT talking about "Aim" mode, since according to the manual, Perception determines how much benefit Aim gives.

Thanks!

Look at their aiming triangles, Kruger's one should be much more narrower.

Perception doesn't seem to have much effect in normal firing mode. You need to Aim to have full benefit of Perception. Also, crit chance for sniper rifles increases significantly when you use Aim Shots, even without the Sniper perk.
