When released, it [[trigger]]s a linked non-channelling bow skill for each stage stored and deals more damage per stage. If Snipe is not linked to any applicable skills, it instead fires its own arrow.
The skill has two variants. The active skill variant is {{sl|id=ChannelledSnipe}} (id: ChannelledSnipe), while as a support it is known as [[Skill:ChannelledSnipeSupport|ChannelledSnipeSupport]] internally.
==Skill functions and interactions==
The gem has two functions:
<br>
As [[File:Snipe skill icon.png|30px]] '''Snipe''':
* {{c|gemdesc|Channel to charge up your bow, gaining stages. Release to trigger one supported bow skill for each stage gained. If there are no supported skills, but at least one stage was gained, this skill will fire its own arrow instead. Cannot be used by Totems.}}
** {{c|mod|Maximum 6 Stages}}
** {{c|mod|This Skill's Arrows deal (70–108)% more Damage with Hits per Stage}}
** {{c|mod|This Skill's Arrows deal (50–80)% more Damage with Ailments per Stage}}
The lines referring to "This Skill's Arrows" are only relevant if no compatible bow skills are linked to Snipe, causing it to use default arrows instead.
As '''Snipe Support''':
* {{c|gemdesc|Supports bow attack skills. Cannot support channelled skills, instant skills, Vaal skills, or skills used by totems, traps, or mines.}}
** {{c|mod|(50–80)% more Damage with Ailments per Snipe Stage}}
** {{c|mod|Supported Skills deal 40% less Damage}}
** {{c|mod|Supported Skills deal (70–108)% more Damage with Hits per Snipe Stage}}
Supported skills also have a 50% cost/reservation multiplier and a cooldown time of 0.05 seconds (50 ms).

* Snipe cannot be supported by {{il|Ballista Totem Support}}.
* Snipe cannot be supported by {{il|Arrow Nova Support}}, but it ''can'' support bow skills triggered by Snipe.
* At 2 or more stages, if 2 or more bow skills are linked to snipe, each skill (up to the number of stages) will fire simultaneously.
* When combined with {{il|Mirage Archer Support}}, if also linked to another bow skill, the Mirage Archer will use the last bow skill triggered by Snipe, unable to benefit from Snipe stages. (Only {{c|mod|Supported Skills deal 40% less Damage}} applies.)
* Minions summoned by skills supported by Snipe cannot benefit from stage modifiers, but are affected by the 40% less damage modifier.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOfEdKm-cRg</ref>
===Mana manipulation===
By reserving a large portion of mana and having insufficient mana regeneration to channel past the first stage, it is possible to make Snipe repeatedly fire after the first stage, providing a massive bonus to attack speed.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i6y6O_AZFgU&lc=UgwcqU6mwwvlHb3Zzx14AaABAg.9xe7uwBR7N49xeB78UdjkQ</ref>
* The first stage of Snipe has a hidden interaction that causes it to take half the time to channel compared to subsequent stages, providing an effective 360% modifier of base attack speed if channelling stops at the first stage.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/182wigd/comment/kan9eu0/</ref>
* Snipe has a cooldown of 0.05 seconds, rounded up to the nearest server tick, providing a cooldown of 0.066 seconds. This results in a default maximum of 15.15 triggers per second.
* At the next cooldown threshold breakpoint (52% increased [[cooldown recovery rate]]), the maximum trigger rate is 30.3 per second.

Right click to remove from a socket., if also linked to another bow skill, the Mirage Archer will use the last bow skill triggered by Snipe, unable to benefit from Snipe stages. (Only Supported Skills deal 40% less Damage applies.)
Minions summoned by skills supported by Snipe cannot benefit from stage modifiers, but are affected by the 40% less damage modifier.[1]
Mana manipulation
By reserving a large portion of mana and having insufficient mana regeneration to channel past the first stage, it is possible to make Snipe repeatedly fire after the first stage, providing a massive bonus to attack speed.[2]
The first stage of Snipe has a hidden interaction that causes it to take half the time to channel compared to subsequent stages, providing an effective 360% modifier of base attack speed if channelling stops at the first stage.[3]
Snipe has a cooldown of 0.05 seconds, rounded up to the nearest server tick, providing a cooldown of 0.066 seconds. This results in a default maximum of 15.15 triggers per second.
At the next cooldown threshold breakpoint (52% increased cooldown recovery rate), the maximum trigger rate is 30.3 per second.
