So does any one actual use this weapon anymore? And If yes/no why?
I personaly i have 9 of theses snipers and can't find 1 good reason to run it. Before the nurf this weapon was a beast killing everything in 1 single headshot, but theses days with its outrageous sensitivity it hard enough to to hit a moving target, let alone a non moving one.
At this rate I'd rather pull out my freakin symbs forks

The novelty of the weapon died with its one shot capabilities.
Somebody call for an exterminator?

I forgot we even had any sniper rifles in the game at one point. Then I rembered we did have sniper rifles but milita,standard,advanced,and pro were never used.
All there ever was,was the Thales. Is it not hard to give them a huge headshot mulitplier so at least skillfully snipers can kill stuff with the other versions?

I also have 9. I haven't reskilled snipers and only use starterfit sniper to get rid of pesky thalers. I haven't seen them anymore but I believe because its rareness.
It does what...450 damage? 495 with pro calmando plus damage mods, you should be able to take out most suits
Add armor bonus too. 544.5.
That would leave my pro galass almost dead.
As for the symbs, I find it wierd no one uses them. They can still be very deadly and I've seen some as cheap as 100k.

STD Sniper Rifle:
322.5 Damage with Warbarge, 3 Complex Damage Mods and Calmando V
967.6 Headshot Damage with the same
Not exactly a one shot kill on everything, just on headshots vs the majority of suits. Normal Damage one-shots base light-suits.
and yes...'Thales' is better than the Symbs in all areas Except Headshot Damage...Symbs is even plagued by the fact you can fire off a 0 damage round on accident
Khanid Logi and Tanker, sometimes AV Heavy or Sniper.

i used to run them on my cal logi...i sat on MCC when we had like 4 players on our team and sniped away. Every suit with 400 or less hp was an OHK, the rest were 2-shot which is easy if they are an armour tanker

The damage isn't the problem with the weapon , it's it horrendous sensitive

Nerf pretty much killed it. The downside of such a powerful shot was the single shot, was no need to nerf the damage. hell if you're getting a headshot then it should make sure you put the suit down.
I had it on a caldari commando with suit 5 and rapid reload 5 to get best DPS but nowdays they're just sat in my hangar doing nothing but look pretty
Please fix my C-II hitpoints!! Jesus and I love you :)

Strange, I remembering GD advocating its nerf because a team of 15 meant only 5 of those guys were infantry while the rest sipped pina coladas on the hills with the snipes.

Haven't used it since the nerf.
It doesn't do enough damage to have only 1 shot per reload.

I like the weapon. Ever since I used it the first time, I felt that this is what a Dust SR should be like. High dmg, single shot weapon. I would use it more often, if there was a way to replenish my stock when I lose one, or some. |

Yep, that's CCP logic to a tee. Typically, they call it "balancing"... They do exactly the same sort of mindless stuff in EvE. I just wish they'd stop buffnerfing everything and just leave things the way they are. |
