How is scope decay determined? Equipping/unequipping? Each shot (or every x shots)? Each zoom in? Each time you swap to a different gun?
What exact benefit is provided? I know they are said to increase hit chance at long range. Is there a higher than normal miss chance at full range than at close range, and the scope brings long range hit chance up to normal, or does the scope increase hit chance at range to higher than normal %?
Does it have 0 effect at melee range? Does it decay when the weapon is fired at melee range?
I've been noticing a much higher miss chance at long range (no scope), but not sure if this is anecdotal or something that actually happens.
I also have no way of knowing of attaching a scope (or for that matter, WHICH scope) would increase economy on pull weapon.
There are many old long discussions on the topic found when searching for answers on this site, but I don't see any definitive answers, just confusing statements from MA about what it DOESN'T do.
