| Attribute | Cool |
| Tier | Rookie (4) |
| Levels | 1 |
| Requires | Feline Footwork |
Small Target rewards V for staying still. Crouched and not moving, the chance of reducing incoming damage rises sharply. It is an early pick in the Cool tree. It is a sniper's perk, and the Cool attribute improves exactly the weapons a sniper carries.
Effect
The condition is both crouched and stationary, which is the posture a precision rifle is fired from anyway.
What it buys is survivability in the one place a marksman cannot move. Holding an angle across a yard normally means taking return fire without the ability to dodge, and this perk makes that trade affordable.
How to Unlock Small Target
It sits behind the Rookie gate of the Cool tree and is bought from Feline Footwork.
Perk Tree
Small Target is bought from Feline Footwork in the Cool tree.
| Name | Image | Tier | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Feline Footwork | Rookie (4) | When crouched: +15% Movement Speed. +15% Mitigation Chance. Mitigation grants a chance to reduce incoming damage by current Mitigation Strength (default 50%.) |
Character Builds
The build is a sniper, which holds a position rather than moving, and that position is crouched and still.
Buy it at the Rookie gate from Feline Footwork, with Unexposed in the same visit. The marksman branch above is where the damage comes from, and this perk is what lets the build hold an angle long enough to use it.
Notes
Blind Spot converts the same mitigation chance into slower detection, so a still, crouched V is both tougher and harder to see.
Unexposed covers aiming from cover instead, which is the other posture a marksman uses.
