Heavy's shouldn't be able to wield light weapons PERIOD. It's so ******* annoying to see a heavy just crouching on a perch out in the open not even worried about getting snipped. It takes 3-5+ shots to kill them. Plenty of time for them to find cover. Meanwhile they're laying waste to everything they see with their charged sniper rifle. What more they actually wait to be hit so they can take cover then use the hit detection to find you. |

First and foremost heavies are at the disadvantage of not being able to reach a certain amount of damage output due to the lack of damage modifiers because of the available high slots they have at their disposal, aside from that they lack an equipment slot and they are also slow plus they have a huge hitbox. If they are in the open and you're having trouble then I'm sorry to break it to you, you need to work on your aim a bit more. |

I was about to say much of the same.
This also showcases my argument about how a sniper rifle is easier to use to snipe people than a forge gun. If the forge gun was easier then there would never be heavies using a sniper rifle since a direct hit with a forge gun = instant total death for every clone even heavies even if your using a militia FG. |

I don't see my thing wrong with it.
That's deep customization your dealing with, and nobody would really try to nerf that now are we?
It's one of the few things that work without any hiccups, and is a cool aspect, so you want to nerf/destroy it? |

Best campers maybe (Fortunately that isn't really taboo in this game  ).
Your comment does make me think that scouts could probably use an extra high slot though.

scouts=worse snipers
btw on the "heavy" snipers"= no ammo
on a normal skirmish i run through one whole set of ammo by half way through the match then i'll have to drop a hive or is this about the commando snipers? in which case i would tell you head shots w/ a tactical sniper, they should die before they know they are hit. |

I think I'm the guy you kept shooting at, but never got me down because I ducked down to let my shields recharge. In short, I performed my role perfectly by keeping the enemy snipers distracted, and when you ignored me, BOOM!
I have no problem counter sniping heavies, either. Aim for the head, or get a good rifle. You're not going to be a sniping god with your free fit and no investment. |

lol, I'm a scout sniper. I do it because I'm obstinate . I know the Amarr Logistics is the most popular, then Caldari Assault and Caldari Logistics. The Sniper Rifle does far too little damage to be used in PC and the weapons is solely based on how many complex damage mods you can stack.
But a scout sniper is useful when the enemy has the high spots and can rain forge blasts to stop vehicles. I can run to a blind spot, get into a dropship, fly to another place high up, and start killing them off. |

I approve of heavy snipers. It takes them an age to get into position. The choices of position are less as they can't jump like a scout and once their cover is blown its harder for them to dodge the retaliation.
I say its a fair choice. |

I love that we've all just jumped on the OP as being foolish. Its true too. There is nothing wrong with a heavy sniper other than the inherent weakness of the suit for the job of sniping. Its almost as funny of a fit as the heavy shot gunner. They are both so easy to kill. |

So, you're saying that a fundamental aspect of the freedom of fitting in this game annoys you, and should therefore be removed? |

Meh maybe they should buff snipers a little, a little extra headshot damage for a round that is approaching the speed of light, that doesnt blow the guys head off? |

Well....I wouldn't say this showcases about how a sniper rifle is easier to use to snipe people then a forge gun, but that is showcases how much better most light weapons are better then heavy weapons even in the categories which the heavy weapon should be the best at. Since I have often seen people in heavy suits use the AR or sniper rifle rather then using a forge gun or HMG. Another example of this is when people get in close and they switch from an HMG to a SMG. Also I think the Heavy Slot should be only for heavy weapons....that and I would love to see the sniper rifle varient for a heavy. Heh...one shot and three logi's crap their pants in fear with scouts running for their moms. Point being I would like to see at least 3-4 more weapons become available for the Heavy to rain down punishment upon our enemies, once we have enough of our own weapons to really play with, then we should be locked down to the heavy weapons, but till that time, grab any weapon you like and kill all those that stand in our way.... |

lol, if a heavy suit can hold on to a big ass cannon why can't he hold on to anything smaller? The only benefit to this anyway is more defense, so what if it annoys you, it's there and there's no good reason why it shouldn't be. Just got one thing to say to you, deal with it, might sound brash but seriously too fuckin bad. Try to put you're efforts towards a real problem like the map glitch where you can't shoot people if they're on a hill that's too far away and yet they can hit you. |

im pretty sure this would stop if we could remove all the other sniper nubs out of the redzone and implement a gear restriction.. |
