I think the old range was a bit too much (redline snipers killing each others across the map) but 400m seems a bit too low.

it was 600m before.

Longest kill with a Sniper Rifle: 500m+. The range on the gun hasn't changed.

Sniper Rifles deal less damage while people have more health. What has changed is an increase in EHP across the Medium suits (While the Gallente Prototype Scout Suit has less EHP than the Type-II Scout suit from before), with more effective shield enhancers. Another change is that without Weaponry's +5% damage is that you feel like you are doing less damage since you are. There is also an "optimal" range, when past that does less damage. I think it may be around 100m if not less. What should be 188 damage per shot (Kaalakiota Tacticle w/ Proficiency 1) does not deal out 564 damage a clip like it should. This problem occurred in Ambush matches. While within the draw-distance. I believe the draw distance is currently 100m-150m.

Sniper Rifles' zoom can be used to see enemies, but unless they are already engaged in combat with your team you wouldn't know to look there.

Sniper Rifles have been assigned the role of Support Fire.

Where has the range boost gone for sp investment in sniping? Before respec I could hit targets 800+metres away, kill most and damage any heavies. I enjoyed the anti sniper battles, but now the range has been cut to a stupid distance. Snipers excel at long to extreme ranges (750 to 1000M+). Modern weapons can operate at almost twice that distance.
