So considering that you can't get up there with a typical dropship (Which shouldn't be necessary to kill some1 anyways), and most ppl wouldn't have the sharpshooter skill high enough to snipe back, how would one be able to beat him/her? especially since he got 1 death, some1 must have gotten him somehow
  P.S. it's not rhetorical, im really wondering if there is a strategy that i don't know because there's a bunch of things i never try   Just grab a militia sniper, you don't need any level in sharpshooter to snipe back at that point |

I read this about militia forge gun too, but that has 300m max range now.   Well, actually never used the militia rifle too much, but I have no sp in sharpshooter yet so standard sniper works just fine. |

  Forge guns / OB / sniper / tanks are also pretty effective
    Also keep in mind if he catches you hunting him your climbing up a very long narrow path with no cover.
  Also keep in mind forge guns and tanks are out of the question when trying to remove a sniper from that mountain. |

I saw someone call in a railgun tank on top of the mountain once, that was a ****** match    That's different   |

   I mean to deal with, then a tank and railgun should work just fine to pop him, or just run up with AV nades and nano hives. |

Problem was he could hit every single objective and if you tried to call in a vehicle he would either hit it as it was being deployed or as soon as it came into range, and he would go and hide behind the ridge whenever he got down to armour    better start climbing |
