It depends on your play style, whether you want to be stationary or mobile. Here are a few of the fittings and setups that I run:
Gallente Logi:
If I'm stationary sniping, I have a gal logi fitted with 3 complex dmg mods, stacked plates, an armor rep hive and ammo hive(s).
Pros: In this build, I can snipe from high or far positions without much worry. It has high survibability (much like the heavy). If I get shot at, I brick tank most shots, see where they come from, hide behind cover, aim, and take em out. If it's an assault shooting at me, I can do the same thing but also strafe snipe them, crouched or standing.
Cons: Lacks mobility due to movement penalty/Secondary. Be wary of scanners, tank blasts/shots, forge, counter-snipers, scouts, and armor piercing weapons like the scrambler rifle.
Caldari Logi:
I have a caldari logi fitting with 5 complex dmg mods in the highs, and full armor on the lows (stationary), and another with 5 dmg mods and kinetic kin cats/cardiac regulator on the lows (mobile but from range). I also have a TAC sniper fitting with 2-3 complex dmg mods on the highs, complex shields, armor and kinetics on the low slots (mobile around objectives).
Pros: The full complex versions can one shot most ADV suits or below with a charged rifle and proto suits (if they arent HP stacked or heavies). The weapon of choice is up to you. You can play stationary or mobile in the mountains or home objective.
The most viable mobile sniper fittings are either caldari or amarr if you want to be an aggressive recon. Idk if people do it with a charged rifle, but one of my old corp mate used to do it with a TAC sniper rifle on city maps due to the higher RoF. Having a side arm helps also especially if u are running in the city.
Cons: Lower HP (530~), shields are squishy/Lacks Secondary. The 4.3-5% more dmg from stacking 5 dmg mods is negligible and use is situational depending on map. Unfortunately, this game lacks one-shot kill sniper rifles without having to charge, unlike in say BF4 where u can be effective at all ranges as an aggressive recon and still have a fast enough RoF to take out multiple targets. The TAC sniper is your best bet here.
Hope this helps give you some insight into the other suits/builds. I don't run Amarr myself so I wouldn't know how they are. I'd say if you want to be aggressive, do caldari assault or amarr logi as they both have sidearms. The main thing to pay attention to is high and low slots as well as cpu/pg fittings in case u want to run armor/speed mods on the lows. Maxing out core skills should help with that, as well.
