Sniping Shot
Fires an arrow, dealing physical damage equal to 180% of Physical Attack Power. Damage increases by 30% of Physical Attack Power * distance from the target.
Range in context
Damage
41.3% of Acid Slogel HPHow the math works
damage = 1.80 x PhysicalAttackPower x (1 + 0.30 x distance + other additive damage bonuses) x later factors; distance = max(|dx|, |dy|)
Things the tooltip does not tell you
- Distance is measured when the arrow lands. The skill allows the target to be outside range (AllowTargetOutside), so a target that moves away during the flight can push the distance a little past 8; there is no clamp.
- The tooltip text reads as a flat add (1.8 x ATK + 0.3 x ATK x distance); the code multiplies instead.

Range and area
Blue caster; light blue range (8 tiles); orange area hit (single target). The range distance metric shown is approximate; the area shape is exact.
Skill animation
The skill's effect striking the training scarecrow (the game's practice dummy), which recoils as it takes the hit. Frame timing is approximate.
