Failed miserably. :( I run Logi/Sniper, some Scout/Sniper and a cheap suit Assault/Sniper when the noobs are too disorganized. Of course, I also run a Militia HMG just to thin the Reds out from time to time.
Logi gives you two or three Equip Slots; Hive - Injector, Hive - Hive even - Armor Rep. Also Prof/Scan items in Low slots are nice. On my three slot I have run; Hive, Uplink, Explosive a time or two.
You have to be careful because of how slow they are. If you are running cover then making sure you get at least two spots to work from. I try not to stay in one for long, successful or not. Sometimes there is no choice. The blasted reds can be persistent when they really want that Null Cannon.
Scout/Sniper can be tricky. They are like paper.
Anyway, normal grain of salt suggested as my major focus is Logi then Sniper. Followed by whatever is needed at the moment, including AV, HMG, Forge or Gunner on whatever needs one. |

@Hunter Junko and @Dominus Fatali. Thanks to both of you. Since one doesn't get to pick the map it will have to pop up for me to test. I have used to the East of A but it is troubled by the Red Line and can only cover A and C. Although not perfectly. If the squad is busy contesting or holding B than A and C need support as a single Red in a LAV usually gets all WP crazy. If I pick them off then I don't have to get a LAV and repeat their path.
I spend most of my time doing Logi but sometimes using my Sniper Proficiency is best for keeping their MCC under the hammer. |

Personally i like being just n just behind my squad mates and then blapping what ever needs to die... snipers, logi, LV's, HV's... all are fair game when you can 1 shot with a body shot (3 for the HV's). Hidden sniper crouching forge at your service...
... And if you think im joking... im really not! I don't think you're kidding! I am pretty sure you were trying to Forge me just recently. Missed. Nyah. You certainly keep me honest though.
I operate two ways in Sniper mode. One is from a particular perch or series of perches/nests. Watch the objective and defend the ones we captured. Some days I can defend two objectives all by myself. In particular if the entire battle seems to be focused at B on Manus Peak for example. Second is reducing clone count. Picking off the Logi, the Red too far from help, already down half armor. I don't mind only getting +25 if the counter goes down. Stopping the Heavy HMG or Forge Gunner so my Blues don't get overwhelmed by them. Counter sniping is included in both I suppose. As is stopping Reds that are crossing open terrain.
I will try carrying the rifle with me but so far I am terrible with hip firing that sucker. I can do better with a tactical AR but this character doesn't have access to them and I cannot afford the SP. I will definitely try it with my Enforcer.
I did get a +75 Assisted Kill nailing a Drop Ship today. It was a nearly perfect experience. They were being really disruptive and had taken missile shots at me, thank god missiles are so broken. I put two or three rounds into their side and it reacted all crazy like they do and never came up again. Then the message showed up. Sweet!
