Can't wait to unlock the Thale soon so I can step away from all this BS and cause people to rage instead when their proto suit goes down with 1 shot.
Surely if you're constantly taking down people in fancy suits with 1 shot without dying you get quite a lot of ISK right?
Regardless I can't wait to just camp on a hill somewhere, pop an uplink, pop a coldy, maybe put down a nanohive by the campfire and just rain hell down on all those people who have more SP than me because I can't be bothered to play this game that often. |

Your pay is based on a % of your team pool (which is based on enemy assets destroyed) plus a small baseline for "time spent" playing, which is directly based on your warpoints relative to the rest of your team...
50 or 60 points a kill is simply too slow compared to everyone else hacking and destroying vehicles/turrets and using reppers, revivers, derplinks, so on so forth.
Also don't be a nutter when using a thale, use it on an HP maxed sentinel/logi or you will start losing them to counterfire...
I usually earn 230K-ish isk per match which is pretty nice as a sniper, but only because I WP-farm with 5 different simultaneous well-placed derplinks.
thanks for the good advice. I'm just going to play with a charge for a while until I find good sniping spots. Only have 29 Thales and don't want to lose them to BS.
Well I can have 570 armour with damage mods so maybe that's enough to survive, not a Thale but to survive at least something! |

Well, everyone has always said snipers are meaningless... since they are, they shouldn't get jack diddily in ISK. I think I do well. I can hold a team at bay and demoralize the hell out of them in Domination. For this I think I deserve ISK, also I am usually in the top 5 on my team when I play sniper and all my WP's are from kills. Also thanks for the compliment, it made me want to go head shot some poor soul just to see the kill feed
You know the domination map with objective in the middle on that bridge?
I'm constantly being harassed by snipers on that map! Time to give some back! |

well then I'll just have to see who's waiting on the battlefield I reckon I've got enough passive SP to get prof 3, finally. |
