Snipers don't earn crap unless you also derplink spam the hell out of the battlefield or your team was garbage.

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.

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 Lol

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! Smile

I am over 350M from most my targets and all I see is red and I shoot. Do not care what you are running, all I care about is that sweet sweet sound when that bell goes off. Also I love one shot kills on heavies and proto's. I always imagine them cursing at the screen as they cant believe they died in one shot. Guess what, it was a head shot and I did it from over 400M away
