You would be surprised how good you could actually snipe in a Cal Assault and how much that reload skill helps .

I used both and yes the Cal Commando is the best but the Cal assault is a darn near close second .

That suit is a beast and is better then given credit for .

pfft I can one shot head shot most non heavies with my covenant assault armed with a covenant sniper rifle 0 skills invested in sniping too. You can snipe with anything as long as it's armed with some sort of sniper rifle and you have a good controller. Sensitivity settings in this game are pretty borked, I have to turn it all the way down and I'm using a brand new sony ds3. third party controllers? Forget about it, no way can you snipe with that. I suspect a lot of players have trouble aiming in this game because of the poor sensitivity options.

LUGMOS YELLOW JESUS EXP FORCE 1154	Posted - 2014.12.16 22:02:00 - [3] - Quote I only use Sever Assault for snipping, but when I do, I do it in Ambush and Skirm, and I keep moving somewhat near the battle, but out of Laser's range. I reccomend shield tanking and maybe a kincat to move from place to place quickly. Just keep moving and watch for enemies that spot you. If they do, try to lose them, or find a place to comfortably snipe or kill them with your sidearm. o7 Official QuafeGäó Advocate Anti-FoTM Prof. V Forum Scavenger Prof. V

Really, that all (& more) that you need. Positions: some place with a good view of the action. Find 4-5 locations and alternate frequently. My rule of thumb is if i have to reload i've been there too long. PS, this really is a crap sniper fit. If you find someone who has the berries to say "hey, i'm a dedicated sniper & here are my secrets to success...", listen to them. My fit is expensive & only holds a single, self serving role; counter snipe & hunt cowards who hide uphigh or in the redzone. Have you considered a career in costumed aggression?

If you're serious about Sniping don't ever invest into the Caldari Commando. The moment anyone decides do start looking for you you'll be spotted as you don't have the db to hide from Scanners (both Active & Passive). You're also slow to the point where an area can get cleared out before you arrive at a vantage point, and you won't have the layout diversity to do other things (like hack empty objectives).

Just stay out of the Redline and please use a Scout, assault or Logi. Sent. and Commandos should not have the ability to use them. Besides you have more mobility with those rather than the heavies. I don't want to have to know someone fished you out of the redline like I did to Dark Thors today (I almost did... My teammate couldn't take on a federation Gk.0 with a SMG. R.I.P Newberry who spawned in my LAV. ) S/he was stuck in the redline sniping so I called in a LAV and ran into their Redline to kill her/him Sadly I had to retreat due to redline timer. n+ÅS¦¦Gùò V GùòS¦¦n++killer of Cat Merc/Feathered overlord of all. 15 Quafe Ck.0s! 357 boxes...0 keys

CAL assault is big, slow, no stamina, can't scan, & with dmg mods installed you'll have no tank, and no recovery. use a scout suit at least you'll have knees to step over cracks and pebbles.

If they made red zones a bullet barrier (IE. you are not cleared to engage so basically your guns don't work) then I could see sniping being buffed. Right now though if sniping got even better then there would be no point not to leave the red line, especially if you can snipe the objective/s from there, which you can on some maps anyways. Hell the range nerf would of been uneccessary if they just made all weapons not function in the red line and moved all objectives away from red lines to remove any strategic concerns. But nope, we'll just keep dancing around **** that was implemented in past battle type games ages ago. Problem with sniping was that it had to be emasculated since snipers couldn't be hunted by non-snipers or could just head glitch with a thales as some still do.

Logis have a sidearm, ScR is good at everything infantry related, and scrambler pistols get a crazy head shot bonus that isn't shared by other pistols. Oh yeah, and they get to change their entire suit layout to fit the meta (armor tanking) because teh lore!!
calvin b Sinq Laison Gendarmes Gallente Federation 2310	Posted - 2014.12.17 00:14:00 - [25] - Quote Myself and most sniper will never tell you where a sweet spot is. The reason is that is our spot or so we think. Two it would give away those spots(which most know about anyways). So I am going to share some tips on how to pick the right spot. 1. The spot needs to have cover for counter sniping, 2. The spot needs a clear line of sight on a good place to kill other clones, does not need to be the objective. I have killed more people visiting a supply depot than standing near an objective. 3. Compact hives are the best. Very low signature and they resupply fast, if you get hurt they can heal you, also very little skill is needed to use them. Negative is you can only carry one and they can burn up quick. 4. Do not stay in one spot unless you are for sure you cannot be countered. Almost all places can be countered. On Cal Assault all Damage mods minus one shield extender.the rest is for healing and making sure you can fit a decent rifle. Can the other voices in other peoples minds hear my voices in my head????
