I bet sniper rifles will get some kind of buff on the next patch iteration, because right now, a prototype sniper cannot take down a prototype suit.

Shoot them twice, or just once in the head. if I have to shoot twice to down a militia suit, then I have to shoot 6 times to kill a proto. more to kill a heavy and even more if I miss which is very likely with a 2x scope.
This is what I am talking about. Right now, assuming we can miss 50% of the shoots (because the enemy hides and wisely take cover), it takes about 10-15 shoots to kills a prototype suit by using a prototype sniper.
Just ridiculous.
Then rename the sniper rifles to assault rifles.

There's a huge gap between the 200hp - 1500hp suits. If you can't body shot a militia suit, I guess taking 8 shots to kill a proto heavy is okay? You can shrink those numbers a bit, and it's still way too much. It currently takes up to 14 bodyshots and 4 reloads (or 8 headshots with 2 reloads) with a PROTO sniper rifle to kill a merc. Despite the extremely low zoom level. And he doesn't waddle away in the 25 seconds that it takes. Provided you land every shot on target. That's just ridiculous! By the way, from the Dust wiki: Quote:Unless facing a high-level Sentinel Dropsuit that is armour tanking, a head-shot will always kill the target. Yeah, right!
That is a lie.
Fix that wiki.

I recently killed a heavy with 12 shoots...
Solid...
I am suposed to be a proto sniper. I really wanted to go down there and hit the heavy with my pistol till he was dead.
F uck.

I am usually forced to change my position in every of these maps.
I do my role properly. The thing is that I do a 20% less relative damage than before 1.8, and snipers situation was already terrible by that date.
Forget the thales, as those are very rare.
Hitting a proto suit with a sniper rifle right now is like a mosquito bite. No reason to be bothered.
I feel that way when I play with my advanced sentinel suit:
Sniper? bah... I am fine, I don't even need to take cover.

If the redline is removed the game won't last 2 days.
That is a fact.
Imagine 16 protosuits just below the MCC... hunting you as you drop...

Hopefully we get some news about sniper rifles in fanfest, as well as the assault suits balance.
