Sniper Certification

Taking out an enemy at range takes skill, and the Starfield Sniper Certification skill will steady your hand when sniping.

Starfield Sniper Certification skill overview

The Starfield Sniper Certification skill is a tier 3 skill in the Combat skill tree. It, as with all Starfield skills, has 4 ranks, beginning at rank 1 and ending at rank 4. In order to progress up the Sniper Certification skill tree, you will need to complete various skill challenges related to the skill in question, and increase your Starfield level to earn skill points. Each rank requires a skill point to unlock.

The Sniper Certification makes scoped weapons steadier and reduces sway. As you rank up this skill you will be able to hold your breath longer with scoped weapons and have the potential to do more damage to enemies when using scoped weapons. Snipers can be used to pick off targets from great distances, and this skill makes handling sniper rifles easier.
