The problem here is not the sniper; it's the red line.
Cant fix redlines or maps though. So other solutions have to be forged.

is it not enough that you send us scurrying away with our heads between our legs every time we see those fiery yellow balls?
You dont even render half the time... can lock on from 175 m.... and can deal huge amounts of damage by simply pointing at us for 1.4 seconds... that's ridiculous... there is no skill at all involved in that... try flying for a change... it's hard enough for new players as it is.
I dont know why swarms can't be content to be a heavy damage area denial weapon... why do they feel they should kill a high skill pilot in a 500k dropship every time he shows his face... these steps have been in the wrong direction and i fear ads's will be nerfed beyond help at this rate.
If 2 swarm launcher volley hits me, an ishukone assault forge can 1 shot me... 2 volleys tend to connect most of the time... that means i either have to dodge that forge gun or dodge the swarms... as the forge gun is a higher skill player aimed weapon i dont have a problem with forgers beating the hell out of me... but a dude who just points at me and kills me in 5 seconds? i cant have that unless you reduce the price of ads, its bad enough losing this much isk as it is
Problem is getting the first, then second, then third swarms to land...

Those interesting in sniper numbers being thought up so far here is a look at the damage slice

Range is entirely up in the air though.
