The Sniper百步穿杨

Specialization relationships

The Sniper is one of three specialization choices offered to Hoyoung in the recovered specialization-choice sheet, listed at position 3 of the three. Hoyoung is a Assassin hero of the The Hunt guild, tagged Crit in the balancing sheet. A ranged attacker (range 5), they operate away from the front line. Base Health 675 sits below the roster average of 805. In the game's lore, Hoyoung goes by "The Newcomer" — "Everything is lining up.". A base Crit of 50 is the crit-hero standard shared by only 4 of 25 heroes. The mana curve runs 40 starting Mana into a 75 pool, regenerating 4/s. Picking this choice links Hoyoung to the passive ability The Sniper.
