@Peri_Longbow_plz Although it's been reclassified as an "AR" the G7 as a marksman rifle will still let you fulfill the sniper support role perfectly, the added benefit being you will need to stay slightly closer to your squad than you would with a sentinel or triple take for example.
Due to the g7's higher versatility at multiple ranges you could actually continue to run a hammybique as a secondary also.
I normally stick a 2x on my mozambique and a 3x on the g7 with this loadout, as when i reach the end circles and its 2-3 teams at CQC range i can just drop the 3x, switch the 2x to the g7 and just hipfire finish people with the bique as its actually brilliant for hipfiring.
Half the job of playing a sniper in apex is to still be able to stay within support range of your squad...so that versatility really is key. Lose your line of site as a sniper and you're useless...especially if you're 100m behind your squad.
Thanks, that's actually very helpful! I appreciate the assistance a lot and I will definitely make use of the advise given. I will report back once I made one or more good progresses, haha. :D
No worries, genuine questions make a genuinely refreshing change from the usual rants and nerf demands we see here. ;p
If you ever have anymore questions don't be shy just drop em in here!
- @Peri_Longbow_plz Wattson has a pretty defensive play style.
You know, just drop a few fences around an entrance/choke point.
Put down her ult in a place you plan to stay in, doesn’t even have to be indoors, (although it’s much more effective there).
Good idea to hold on to at least one ultimate accelerant, as it will fully charge your ult.
Her ult is good for sniping, as it will regenerate shields if you get fired back at, and can even serve as temporary cover.
She has Low Profile, so I assume she is at least somewhat hard to hit.
Camping is good, but you don’t have the same area denial as Caustic. You won’t do much damage with your traps, but if an enemy crosses them they are a sitting duck.
These are kind of obvious things, but I thought I’d mention them anyway.
Overall, Wattson seems like a good character for you to play, mainly because of her ult, but you’ll have to see for yourself. The connection stats when you load the game are meaningless i can open with 55% packet loss according to it yet game plays fine, then another time it says 0% packet loss but i cant hit anything.
