As a note, I am talking about using STD gear with no more than 1 Damage Mod A charge proto snipers should be taking away at least 75% of a heavly tanked proto suits health with 4 complexes. Shouldn't 1 complex armour plate counter 1 complex dmg mod?
sure.

SRs aren't UP. When they hit they work well. I have an alt that is all snipered right out, all the rifles, the dmg mods, and have the same issue. Everybody does. The big thing is you can't zoom in enough, and see what you're aiming at.
However, if SRs worked like the real ones, it would kill this game. Nobody would go for the obj, everyone would just camp somewhere as high up as possible and go for KDR.
You all know I speak the truth on this.

I use a basic SR... recently spec'd into Tac SR
I use it if the situation means I have to...
My favorite fitting w/SR (Baal's creation)
- Minmatar Scout M1-Series
- Basic Tac Sniper
- Adv Nova Knives
- Locus Grenades
- Scanner
This way I can provide cover fire to anywhere my squad needs it
As I don't need to stay stationary, while scanning and providing intel
The knives are just to insult other snipers 
I do apologize for mocking OP but you should re-think your claim
Sitting in the redline needs to be removed, not encouraged and
yes CCP have made hit detection at range really bad but,
I feel this is needed as Snipers need to adjust to a role that benefits their team
Not just farming kills/WP while not contributing to objectives
Plasma Cannon will have its chance if AR/HAV 514 is ever fixed

Not everyone, just a significant enough percentage to make it feel like it was everyone.

I have Gal Logis, I know this.
the largest bonus is on the unused mass driver, which is 20%. Armor plates have over 100% more hp than shield extenders, therefore, armor is far stronger EHP wise, even if it is shot with a scrambler rifle, and shield is shot with a mass driver.

I know I am getting one shotted by snipers all the time and I have an alt with a charged SR, no damage mods and I seem to drop almost everybody I hit.
Because, that's why.

Vegetation Monster wrote:TheD1CK wrote:Stop hiding 400+m away from everyone and your performance will improve This whole thread amounts to one thing ... QQ 'Why can't I OHK while hiding 400m away from targets'  The answer is in the problem .... Most weapon ranges are useless at 200m yet snipers feel, they need to be double that distance away to be effective.... Move into the map, fight in range of 200/300m You'l find hit detection greatly improved and you may actually contribute to your team Until that time, quit bitching that you suck at hitting targets because you are camping 400m+ Away from MOVING targets .... seriously have you not took the hint from the replies here Most weapons are useful within close range but sniper suck within 300m... you are sitting still as a fly, you cant really see anything around you and if your found, your're good as dead. I still dont get how the most powerful sniper still cannot OHK a militia suit. A FUKING MILITIA SUIT even with 4 complex dmg mods!!! 4 complex damgage mods and proficiency 4.
The problem is, that all of us who have sniped even a little, find that this is not true. Now if everyone who sniped complained about this and we seldom got OHK'd by snipers you might get some agreement, even with the dislike of redline snipers, but I get killed every other match this way, and the few times I have sniped with the charged rifle about half my hits were OHK's. I sure you are a better sniper than me, so I don't have any sympathy for your position which seems to be that you should be able to OHK anyone you can get in your sights.
Because, that's why.

Seriously, though, this is hilarious.
I primarily snipe and my standard fit includes 3 complex damage mods and a charge sniper, and my proficiency skill is only at 2. I OHK at least half the reds I hit, and catch many of the survivors on their beeline to cover.
I disagree that sniper rifles need any changes--I actually think they are incredibly balanced. I posted some maths on it before; here's the relevant part:
CRNWLLC wrote:Base damage = 321.9 x 1.09 (+9% from Proficiency 3) = 350.87 x 1.17 (approx. +17% from 2 complex damage mods) = 410.52 x 1.75 (headshot bonus) = 718.41 per head shot. This is entirely adequate to take out the majority of players (IGÇÖd wager at least 2/3) with one headshot, and a second shot, if needed, is enough to take out most of those that survive the headshot. Even without the headshot bonus, 322 - 410 damage is enough to take out many non/poorly-tanked, sub-proto suits in one shot.
Throw in an extra complex damage mod and the headshot number for a charge sniper rifle is almost 750 damage. That's insane. No other light weapon does damage like that.
