    Hello! I just hit 70 on my Sniper and am wondering the most effective way to train. I've seen both suggested so I'm just getting some feedback here, whats better? Sniping Jr. Newties with Strafe or going to traditional spots with Arrow Eruption?

    Congratulations on Sniper Jake!

    As to which skill is better to max first, it really all depends on your personal preference. Maxing Strafe first and going to Jr Newties is fast EXP.

    Personally, I like putting one point in strafe (level one strafe is better than Double Shot) and then max Arrow Rain/Eruption. I enjoy staying at GS2 until level 75 or so (you can stay there longer with a priest) and then going to WS. Arrow Eruption is very effective at WS.

    EDIT: I really only have experience with Rangers, though.

    You can even add one point into Frost Shot for the cc it does to mobs.

    Definitely go AE.
    Lv70 1strafe
    Lv71 1blizzard, 2mortalblow
    Lv72 3mortalblow
    Lv73-82(?) max AE
    You can also get like 6 or 9 puppet inbetween.

    You can train amazingly at GS2, Wolf Spiders, Gobies, and Typhons
