Buff republic sniper


Recommended Posts

Posted

Name:Spec Ops SFC SS Golem

Suggestion: buff the republic sniper to deal 300 damage

Implementation: S.A.M! The republic sniper should feel like it actually does something but more often than not I end up using my westar rather than the gun I trained to be able to use. It seems useless and should be improved

Lore: I mean I'm sure a sniper took at least two shots to kill

-1 Doesn't need a buff two shot kills would make it OP, It can kill someone in about 4 hits.

Snipers are usually used for long range but if you are close enough that your Westar is more effective than you already have made the correct weapon choice for the situation.

Snipers were usually made for long range effective shots. Even if I am far away I find myself using the westar instead it should not be like that it should be westar mid to close range and sniper long range but I use westar for everything. And I think you're underestimating how many shots you can get off on one person with a sniper often times when hitting someone I can only get off two shots on them before they close the distance and kill me

Probably need to switch to a closer range weapon then if they are that close ;P

300 dmg is a bit excessive. 

its how snipers should be. Snipers don't take 4 shots to kill. No i'm not saying every weapon needs to be lore friendly but I'm saying snipers along any game are usually shown to be 2-shots. and if you train and specialize as a sharpshooter you should have a gun that matches honestly its just a trooper with a special name.

-1, very excessive amount of damage. I say lower the amount of damage.

Theres a difference between player enjoyment and lore friendly, players shouldn't be getting one or two shot by a sniper. It ruins the fun of the server.

Have you ever used a republic sniper? Unless the target is moving slow or you can anticipate where he's gonna be you aren't hitting him. two times is probably max hits youll get this is not game breaking. plus 175 damage is a 6 hit on max stat let me tell you. You will NEVER kill anyone in a pvp match 1v1 or teams with that sniper

Yes, I've passed some of the hardest sharpshooter tryouts on the ship, It's relatively easy to guess and lead your target. 

You are not getting 6 shots off on one target before they can kill you ask any sharpshooter

+1 The republic sniper should go up to like 150 or 200 damage.
