Risk/Reward is a huge problem and while it is where it is, I wouldn't buff snipers one bit.
You expect to make people lose 200k dropsuits from the safety of your redline while dying maybe once a blue moon?

You would think people are smart enough to pick up a sniper themself and kill us glass cannons but they continue to run around. Still it's practically impossible to kill a proto suit without the thales that is moving.
Hmm...
So basically, you have to bring a tank to counter a tank?

It's funny really, how you say the Thale's is the only viable sniper when it's absurdly OP.
I can one shot nearly every scout bar the most tanked one, I can one shot most non proto medium frames, and it's not problematic to get multiple shots into a heavy.
All so deep within the redline that I didn't lose a single Thale's in a few dozen matches.

- Scouts
- Assault Dropships
- Heavies w/LAVs and/or Transport Dropships
- Infantry w/Active Scanner(s)
Can somebody please explain this notion to me? Or do people hate Snipers simply because killing one requires them to actually search for one?
I have ZERO problem with snipers that actually leave the redline.
It's the snipers that I literally can't reach, no matter how much I try that annoy me, hard.
Look above ^

So basically, you have to bring a tank to counter a tank? no, it requires a weapon of the same type. to kill a tank you use a forgegun (mini railgun or you use swarms which are minny missile launchers.) Stop being lazy, if you are not willing to kill a dude sitting still, you deserve to be killed. Anyway, not everybody snipes from the redline. Stop nerfing the ones that don't.
I am willing to kill a dude sitting still.
I go sniper hunting all the time, if they come out of the redline.
But when they sit deep within it, I'm pretty much stuck with a 400 damage cannon aiming at me that I can't retaliate at.
