So I've had several matches in a row with Thale's snipers on both teams and I'm really getting sick of not being able to do anything about them.
We had people running along the enemy redline with proto scanners (the long range, 200m ones) and still couldn't find them. How do you deal with it?

Had those too. How do you find them? It's a massive map, you know, and it doesn't help that half the time they don't even render because of the ridiculous zoom on their scopes enabling them to sit at 600m.

3.kill sniper with extreme prejudice How? Might I ask what maps these occurred on so I can point out the most likely Thales sniper spots, And another tip, if you get killed by one, pay attention to the distance that they killed you from aswell as the suit they are wearing and what direction they are in (if possible)
Manus Peak, Ashland, Line Harvest, Research Facility. I've run into ludicrous numbers of them.
On some of these maps our people running along the redline with scanners were getting killed at 300m.

Alternatives are after the target is lit FG Snipe or Rail Gun or finally counter the thale with another one.
I've actually been trying to counter them with my own Thale's - but neither I nor my squadmates can actually find them.
