Sniper character design!


This is what im going to strive for with my sniper character.

Rexosuit
Medium assault
Sniper
Assault buggy(skyguard)
Hacking
Engineering
Combat Engineering

Special Assault\
Heavy Assault

Implants:

Audio Amp
Second Wind
Regenerate\
Advanced Targeting\
Darklight\
Personal Sheild\

And a mix between these implants obviously. IM going ot go out and use the skygaurd alone as a getaway and to take out air targets form cover or group up wiht another sniper and go around killing everything. Hopefully even try to become an expert base assault sniper. if its possible.

What are everyone elses sniper designs?

Not much need for standard hacking anyways.

Combat engineer, ironically fits a sniper VERY well.

Lets you set up shop with a cozy set of spitfires mines and motion sensors that do a good job of fending off air and cloakers.

Uhm... why waste all those implants and stuff when you can just sit where you are and have your health instantly back.

Lot easier to hold a position if you aren't waiting for stamina or leaving to go to terminals all the time.

Plenty of people got adv hack. You don't need hacking

wante to use second wind and or regenerate instead since im only going to be walking form the vehicle to my shooting position. which i dont plan to be far.

I wanted to do the assault sniper in a more covert way. And or with alot of medium and special assault like radiator for vehicles and hacking for med terminal if i can get to htem. Like slowly intrenching my self in the base and kicking them out.

Even better reason to have medical, and not need hacking

Hell a team of snipers, it's awesome to have adv med :P

Your friend gets counter sniped, kill the shooter, and then revive him, and go back on shooting.

Agile sniper
Medic
Engy
Adv Targeting implant sometimes
CE sometimes, depends when I have it or not. When I do I set up a mine and sit on it when sniping. Cloakers sneaks up on me, he usually dies. Only problem is I die too....
You are definately gonna need the medic. Even if don't get hit much, one shot in agile takes away 75 health and I think 65 in rexo. Its just nice to have as a backup.

I hope you know you cannot drive and shoot from the skyguard at the same time.
