Anyone thinks Armada Snipers have a lot of life? And it's horrible when it appears two or more Snipers, and they attack from a very VERY long distance

Snipers are meant to be the bane of us pirates. They have a large abundance of health, and are also equipped with overwatch.

The difficulty levels of the Armada regulars I think is very consistent with the storyline. After all, the Armada is becoming feared through the Spiral for good reason. We get to understand that first hand by struggling through challenging battles with their provincial troops (which are not going to be their best!). I like it, because my object is not to beat the game, but enjoy the story as it unfolds.

You just have to gang up on all the snipers and it is easy. Though for me, I always gang up on enemies in battles.

Kill the other armada troops first. Less being attacked while you kill the minions.

From experience i know it is possible to get no snipers in a fight

I fought them in Port Regal, and once I fought against two or even three Armada Snipers. I don't really bother looking at the health, because my crew just kills them sooner or later. So you do not have to be bothered with such health, just think you can kill them anyway.

I have to agree with this When I run away on low health they get me they run up close to me just to take a shot.I run again They get me! Then I am defeated. Its way too hard to fight them now. They are like captain blood.but stronger!

I honestly am confused as to why people complain about these snipers, to be honest when I was in Valencia they went down as fast as the average marine to me. but everyone focuses on health, not armor or resist. so maybe they just have none or weak resist and armor? I know most people never think of the enemies actual stats besides pvp. but all I'm trying to say is health isn't everything. it confuses me so much why people get health gear with no armor or resist. it's like giving a hilt with no blade on it.

I agree. Armada riflemen are always a priority target for me. I take them out first and always focus my entire party on taking out enemies one at a time. Spreading out your attacks can lead to disaster.
