IMO don't move unless you're aware of a threat. Pick your nest for it's provided cover, it's field of view, and then availability of targets. You should also know where your enemies are likely to attack from and always take a moment to look for them. I don't move unless the enemy knows full well where I am and are actively trying to get at me (and I have no way of actually getting rid of them).
Short of HAV "sniping" my spot or someone sending a special PS delivery, or mass moving of enemy lines leaving FoV, I don't leave my perch.
But really, learn what places make good nests. Then learn how best to remove someone from that nest. A rooftop isn't always a good place, and the hills sometimes go higher than you originally thought. |

Depends on preference really. Do you like higher rate of fire or a single powerful blast? I tend to prefer higher RoF so finish off stragglers and the people who just barely survive the first shot.
Though the best sniper rifle to use atm is Thale.... it's got like an extra 100 damage over the next best option, but it's not realistic for most people to reliably use right now.

I prefer regular to tactical. Clip size makes all the difference. then why not the charged? it has 5 rounds per mag
Cause people hate the charge part. For it to do it's full damage, a regular sniper can pop off two shots and a tactical can empty it's clip. |
