Earn your kills like most of the rest of us.

Sniping is really not that hard in that game in fact easy enough that I don't bother putting SP into it to counter snipe. Once you crouch you have a steady scope thats snaps back to its original position after each shot. So when the first shot ist not enough you just need to fire again.

While I disagree with most of what Spirit Charm said, I do like the increased magnification on the optic.

I wouldn't have a huge issue with a very small damage buff if it weren't for the fact that the red-line effectively forces you to play their game. A sniper in real life is a force multiplier and a scout, not a meat grinder that churns out a million kills. 30-0 isn't impossible for a sniper, but its (usually) unrealistic for its role. You shouldn't be compromising your cover, you should be relaying positions to your squad/team and pinning reds down for clean up. Leave the grunt work to grunts, you've got a relatively white-collar job.

Play however you want, but its helpful to know and fill your role.

[In the future where immortal super soldier that wear highly protective armors , no one fears snipers. Snipers are NOT the killers they are in other FPS, but more of a tactical/support role. (like covering certain Letters in skirmish or give cover fire to assault units, INFORMING their teammates of enemy locations , etc....)

PLUS snipers are still good and DO get a powerful headshot bonus.
I go 15-2 with a covenant sniper rifle or the Basic TAC when i snipe.

And snipers 1HKO my scout suit every time, and my min runs 410HP....

so i really dont know what you are talking about broski.
