Deactivate skill

[Neo-Rey]

Is there a way to set an active skill to deactive? Or should I just atcivate another skill/perk,wich then replaces the active one?. I have set zeroing as active ,but Im not a fan of it. I don't think it really works.

Go into skills page, right click the skill and deactivate it.

I tried that but that doesn't work. If I rightclick on it nothing happens. I dont see anything that tells me to deactivate it.

Same, did you ever figure it out? I've seen people do it on videos.

I think you have to activate another to deactivate/remove the active one - so requiring you to have two active skills unlocked as a minimum, even if you only want one. There is no quick button to switch them, either. I believe this has always been the case and there have been discussions/complaints about it since game release. It is indeed an annoying feature and beyond that, remains a relatively easy fix.

I would have to agree, especially for bows. If you prefer to shoot the bow off the sights (adjusting aim-point for elevation consistently) it will badly mess with your aiming points as it resets the mid-pin/point to the zeroing distance chosen and then does f-knows what with your +'s and -'s if the distance is 37m vs 30m for example.

Well, I guess it all depends on whether or not you use the other sights for the bow. I use the single pin/default sights with zeroing and it seems to work fine for me. I can see how it would completely throw me off if I used the multi-pin sights.

Orrrrr....... you could be real hunters, and use the recurve. But that's none of... well, you know. ☕🐸

I posted this thread on 27 april of 2017 But thanks for all of your responses,I actually use zeroing nowadays, I think they fixed it months ago. I use it on both bow and rifles.

Zeroing works perfectly. It's the only special skill I use. I find it too useful to switch it for something else. I use it for every weapon including the bows. I'll use it with a single pin or the 5 pin scopes. It's going to make pulling 100 meter bow shots off with the compounds much easier.
