try to snipe imperfects, have fun with it.
also you forget to mention that the charged rifle is only 2k lol, so i'm guessing you're talking about the 98k kaalkioota, you cannot be talking about the absoloute trash rifle the isshuukone, I didn't think that proto ar rifles we're 120k each.
Calling this rifle trash makes you trash.
I saw people own entire matches using it.
Seriously, my team mates couldn't bring out their heads until I finally took a LAV and run the person over. |

Snipers ARE in less risk.
The point of snipers is staying far away from the enemy, limiting risk and increasing the fear of the enemy.
Hence the gear should be more expensive to compensate for ISK vs Reward |

So being in the middle of the battlefield where everyone can see you, there may be traps, ambushes, tanks, general combat = sitting on a hill, moving a dot on a screen, pushing R1 and getting a kill? |

I could say the same thing about a group of 6 players traveling in a pack with modded controllers and logi support. where's the risk of pub stomping in proto gear? anyone who tries to kill snipers do, even militia ar users can do it, what can they do agaisnt the pub stompers? why isn't their gear 500k isk a fit?
Hmm, so you use gear we already know is broken, and an illegal item to use in this game to prove your point?
Good one. |

I'm tired of seeing 4, 5, even 6 guys on my team way in the mountains or MCC sniping. come join NF and you will never have to worry about snipers again imperfects are the hardest guys to snipe in the game, they seem to have some form of constantly wobbly rotation going on with their joy stick, it's like they play with a vibrator attached to the control stick. ya you heard me.
Wouldn't surprise me. |

Proto pack requires you to have friends playing with you, coordinating.
Bringing friends SHOULD multiply your power.
Sniping is sitting alone on a hill, moving the crosshair and shooting, doing enough damage to kill anything that isn't a heavy in 1-2 shots.
Also, each pack hunter needs to bring his own expensive gear.
A full squad of those can go up to 1.2million in ISK if everyone in the squad dies ONCE. |

I fight in a team multiply my power as well yada yada yada. we don't have to fight alone, and the fact that pack hunting requires friends and sniping doesn't changes little we are talking about nerfing a weapon based on a tactic aren't we. the specifics of the two tactics matter little in regards to the risk involed.
The point was safety.
Pack hunting makes it safer for an individual, at a greater risk of ISK.
Sniping is already safe, no matter if you have one or 1000 people with you.
Your entire argument is invalid. |

Your entire argument is invalid. no your point is sniping can be safe, if you sit in the hills yes it can be safe, if you snipe about 3 meters behind your AR buddies to help themm win long range engagements, it isn't as safe. if you are facing a good sniper on the other team it isn't safe, if someone has a hard on for rushing you with lav's it isn't safe.
Putting your sniper 3m away from the enemy is called stupidity.
If the person using it has half a brain, he would know how to use it for its intended usage, and that is sniping from a hill being extremely safe. |
