Re: No one is using a Sniper

@SheepsKing I run a sniper almost every round. I prefer the Longbow or Triple Take. I only pick up the TT if I have a choke. I'll run it all the way up into round 4-5. Then I typically dump it for a secondary CQC gun that I loot off of someones death box. I occasionally keep it if round 5 is going to be at train yard or some other place in which I can get high ground and make a sniper work in an area that small.

I prefer the 2x-4x scope but will make a 3x work. The 4x-8x is okay. But honestly the 6x scope is the best long range scope in the game. 8x or 10x zoom is just too strong and limits your view of the battle field too much. If my team is a sniping team. I tend to just carry a 6x in my inventory and keep a mid range scope on the gun. If I need the 6x range, I equip it.

They are effective guns in some situations. I will agree in most situations you'll just farm damage with them. How ever, you can also do some heavy hitting before you rush a squad putting the enemy at a disadvantage as you rush.
