Sniper rifle.
jacky.:
Bullshit. I had Rvsty laser sniper 20% better rbt 11ap 216hp and he was uber duper. I remember when i used him first Time in large waves fight in gecko (cs,sot,bbs, havks) i killed 4-6 people before i get killed. Snipers are good in killing militia knocking bgs. There were fights when 2gauss snipers from sot were killing half of my gang and we couldnt find Them (it was during fight in residental) So snipers are fine.

It depends what build you shoot. With new things like bonehead and man of steel, 290 max hp makes snipers very ineffective. Also a good player knows how to run and regenerae action point one at a time by running stop for 1 second, regernate action point run agian, regeneration next action point, in real time combat.
The way I see it is the sniper is the clean up build a big gunner can can get most builds down to very low HP (I'm not talking about one hexing) and the sniper does the final blow would be be the most effective and ideal way to use a sniper this session/update. But usually PvP is such a big mess and chaotic most just shoot the first thing they see.
In PvP its most effective to have builds that can kill at least one person than to cripple or just do a knock out, which is why sniper is not that great and people go for big gunners and lasers.
Snipers do kill, they can kill other snipers or builds that don't use bonehead, man of steal and no toughness, but since majority of players go with bonehead on their pvp builds this is why snipers seem so weak. There is alot of anti-sniper perks and traits to take.
Also porno, this isn't the begining of the session RBtE did a bonus to crit damage this was changed many updates ago this is another reason why snipers seemed more power then than it is now.

nobody took rbte tanyway as your critchance was lower. Plus, nobody knew that the very first rbte was bugged to begin with.
pre patch:
10 (lk) + 60 (eye multiplier) + 10 (emc) + 5 (mc) - 10 (helmet) = 75
10 (lk) + 60 (eye multiplier) + 10 (emc) - 7,5 (helmet/rbte) = 72,5
1lk targets
post patch(es):
10 (lk) + 60 (eye multiplier) + 10 (emc) + 5 (mc) - 20 (helmet) = 65
10 (lk) + 60 (eye multiplier) + 10 (emc) - 10 (helmet/rbte) = 70
5+lk targets
altered crit dmg calculation concerning DT (T888's quote)
altered crit tables (supposedly less bypasses)

Mentioning snipers before the update ::) mentioning militia :o yes now we can start talking about junk obtaining from barrels and farming sniper rifles from caves.
Basically everything was perfect before the update, which means

That is just an assumption and not based on any fact. My first PvP build of the session was a laser sniper and I took RBtE and knew about it, the character planner was out before the wipe so I am sure many people knew about it and planned ahead.
But look I knew from the start this wasn't going to be a sniper session when I saw perks like man of steel and the trait bonehead.
