Have you tried aiming for the head?
A standard rifle will one shot a lot of suits with a head shot.
Also, if it was militia they were tanked and had a lot of SP. A charge shot does something like 350 damage? |

You found a glitch. Mid last year hit-detection got so bad for sniper rifles I knew two guys who quit the game.

You might as well just ditch that fourth damage mod. You're only getting a 1% bonus from it.
Oh, and try the Flaylock.

Try using a DS3, unless you are superhuman you're gonna miss 9 out of 10 head shots on a moving target maybe due to lag. And when people are on a building, im in a python hovering over them and blowing them up.

am I proto stomping? am I really stomping the whole team of 16 peeps. Last time I checked using a proto under powerd weapon isn't bad. Gazerbazan uses a plasma cannon on a proto logi but he's not stomping going 35-0.

That's the problem with sniper rifles.
Damage is fine but you can't get ohk because of the awful aiming and low zoom scope |

Hard? Yes.
Impossible? No.
I've done it before, I am not saying that it wasn't mostly luck but hey, find their line of travel and take a guess.
Feels good when it works.

No, but you certainly aren't helping the venerated noobs you keep telling other proto users to stop killing. Plus the bitching in other threads. Hypocrite.

Relaying info and softening up people for your squad to take out is fine but sometimes you need to be able to down mercs to help out and when you can only do this consistently with an officer weapon it makes one feel that their weapon of choice is partially broken.

Well, here's a little story that will enlighten everyone to why Sniper Rifles are the way they are.
Ok, so there is this guy named Mark Critelli somewhere out there in the wide world of FPS. Mark Critelli sucks dead donkey **** when it comes to actually playing FPS, however, for whatever reason, he is apparently a phenomenal sniper (or so he would have you think).
Well, Mark Critelli played MAG (as did a large portion of Closed Beta testers) and he created a threadnaught on the MAG forums regarding the "Rollins .50" (the Anti-Material Sniper Rifle for Valor). He begged and cried, pleaded and cajoled and generally threw an Eric Cartman style tantrum on the forums until the Rollins would body shot OHK anything that didn't have (at minimum) upgraded health and Medium+ Armor on (if you didn't have upgraded health, it would OHK anything that wasn't a Heavy and those it would body shot 2HK).
Now move forward to the Dust Closed Beta. A bunch of the MAG vets who had come over to the Beta lobbied for there to be no body shot OHK Sniper Rifles, they begged and cried, pleaded and cajoled and generally threw an Eric Cartman style tantrum on the forums under it was accepted that the Sniper Rifle should be little more than a "Wounding Weapon" without headshots and/or stacked damage mods.
So there you have it, blame Mark Critelli for the state of Sniper Rifles in Dust today.

2 to 3 extra damage matters? On a full auto weapon, perhaps, but a sniper rifle isn't going to get a real benefit from that  10%, yea, 5%, yea, but 1% isn't even worth the CPU and PG that it takes to fit. Better off with a shield mod or something to help avoid getting one shotted. Heck, a shield recharger would probably be more useful.

I guess I got a magic Charge Sniper (to be fair, its from early uprising when they cost like, 2,000 isk or some ridiculously small amount, so it probably is) cause I'm able to drop everything but Heavies with Prof. 1 and 2 damage mods...
xSivartx is my Heavy. There are many like him, but he is my own...
So, other Logi's back off, those are my Warpoints!

You are doing it very very wrong then.
Anything under ADV dies in one shot to the body.
Shield regeneration bonus for Gallente Assault is about as useful as Sharpshooter for Nova Knives.

So shooting at people who can't shoot back, or even enter the area you're in, isn't easymode enough for you? You want OHKs to the BODY as well? |
