Eventually your healers going to run out of mana/energy/force points etc, leaving you the opportunity to burn them down. Also remember were going to have at least 1 stun or cc ability to help keep whoever were fighting within range for a bit longer. Remember snipers crit a lot and do huge burst damage! |
Correct. Cover protects from Force Leap, being pulled via grapple, etc.
Using Entrench (An ability increasing the effectiveness of cover temporarily) will also make the Agent immune to any other kind of control (CC),. They become an unmovable object that cannot be charged, pushed, lifted, frozen, Force choked or in any other way incapacitated.

Sweet. Looking forward to their reports.
p.s. Snipers and bunswingers are getting more interesting now that they are reiterating the cover mechanic. I think that if you play those classes how they should be played, they'll be very viable in pew pew afterall.

35 meters depending on run speed is pretty up close and personal. Especially for Bunswingers. *grin*
Here is a graphic on scale I made with 30 and 35 meter ranges. Looks pretty ok. I read that WOW's hunters have a base range of 31 yards which is 28.3 metres.
