@OldTreeCreeper The rapid elimination badge is just a pure luck badge. I think I naded 2 guys then finished 2 guys that were one shot health each. LOL.

@Cheese9Mannot always a luck thing. Sometimes you're just on your game at the right moment 😂! I got it with Mirage & LL.
@dSKyNafinchinthe key is 3rd party sniping lol.

  @dSKyNafinchin as a regular sniper I can tell you that the Kraber won't be easiest unless you manage to find somebody sat still...which is unlikely. 😛
  Forget about the badge for now and just learn to place your ranged shots until you're comfortable with them. I'd recommend starting on longbow then moving on to the sentinel.

  @Lord_Scorpion34 Good call! That's what I have been trying to do with the TT, but I'm usually within 100-200m of the fight. I need to start using pings as a range finder
  
  @MandatoryIDtag Sound advice! That seems to be my pain issue with the snipers on here. I can track targets and hit shots with the TT (super easy with the spread), but I struggle with the longbow. I normally don't use anything above the 2-4x on marksman/snipers. What do you run, and a regular sniper? I picked up a Sentinel yesterday and put a 6x on it, but I'm not really a fan of the static zoom, with no toggle. Curious about what you run. I can use the Longbow fairly well as a close-range DMR/shotty, but I should start working on long-range shots with it, like you suggested. I've always avoided snipers, but I need to adapt

    @dSKyNafinchin So the TT is a really bad transitional weapon to a more traditional weapon as its shots travel literally double the range before bullet drop takes effect.
    Falloff on a longbow/sentinel is around the 100m, after that you'll need to start raising the crosshair to compensate (the rangefinder is a big help on that front). As for leading shots over range, I don't think I can give give a helpful written guide on that one.....it's just gonna have to be trial and error on your part until you get a feel for it.
    As for my personal preference, a sentinel with a 4-8x variable. Which I'll switch out for a 2x if the opportunity arises late game. 🙂

@Cheese9ManThis for sure on the rapid elimination. I got screwed on my triple triple with caustic a long time ago and it still stings. Killed 2 3 mans as a solo and then found a squad hiding in a building as wattson. Chucked my ult in and blocked the door with barrels. Unfortunately it was only a 2 man team I wiped.
