    You're surely not dietcoke. You're surely not have his boat, neither his gears.
    So when I see a mk5 fixer who runs a sniper or swift torpedo and go straight to solid mk6s. It's pretty sad.

    Miku da yo, I'm sorry.

    Stop cry... 50%crit where do you live?!?
    I bearly get 30%... and again let’s compare the damage without crit... very low compare to blast cannon or the mortars...
    mortar almost always 100% hit if ur not a speeder and damage can be huge

    Nerf sniper because you want to go in the view of 5 enemies? Nerf sniper because they kill you? Out of all the items that 5 players can have sniper was the only that could hit you, so nerf it, yea! Nerf it for the sake of the fastest boat with the ability to get in your face with 7k hp and run back to the fixer on opposite side of the map in seconds...

    Maybe, try being more cautious.

    Seriously, all of you should be able to debate the topic itself without resorting to personal attacks against each other or your play styles. This thread is going to get locked if this thread continues on its current tone.

    I m a sniper user myself,and i know how hard hitting it can be at Ace- 1,2 and 3

    Sniper needs a rescaling/Rebalancing/Rearranging of talent tree.A weapon which does better damage than Railgun 45 times out of 100 in 1 Slot,with miles better accuracy,Half the reload time,Without amy damage reduction ar close range...

    And Remove one +25% big Crit hit Crew talent,Thats all

    And i will say this all again.A minor decrease in Ridiculously fast projectile speed will solve some problems.

    And crit chance CAP at 30% if you want to walk away with minor change

    @Miku Da Yo 39 i disagree with down
    scaling of perks

    Reason:- it will still be a good weapon for P2W with 4 perk,F2p rare user player with 3 perk suffer

    All This coming from a sniper user:-- Rare T4 and Epic soon to be T2

    Why is everyone comparing sniper crits to flare + Ex. It's a 2 weapon close range combo that takes up 3 red slots and other one is 1 slot long range point and shoot.

    And why are we comparing sniper crits to ex crits? One hits once in 5 games (less than that) and other hits 5 times in 1 games. Are we all out of common sense here?

    I don't care if sniper gets nerfed or not but asking for flare+ Ex nerf along with sniper is just plain stupid. Let me tell you why: Because fire and frost go hand to hand. If fire combo gets a nerf then frost gets a nerf and it's not doing so well at the moment. Good luck with your trash blasters then.

    It's the fundamental idea behind both combos. You really think they just Yolo nerfed fire combo last update?

    That’s such a perfect example, thank you for posting that. The speed and accuracy alone is terrifying.

    What’s worse: there are people below 1k infamy now (like loads of them), dishing out the same 1100! crits, against ships with less than half the hp YSL has.

    Can you just leave. We all know you have a leggy sniper and don't want it nerfed, but for once in your damn life just look straight at what is happening.

    A 1slot item with lazer-like projectile speed, and high range can deal over 1200 damage
    consistently above 700 infamy with no drawbacks.
    Also, quit comparing sniper to other cannons, they all have drawbacks a/or quirks. AND don't crit every 5 seconds.

    I stand by my suggestions, remove the crit damage increase in the skill trees, this gives use to crit dmg perks and indirectly lowers crit chances. And a 30% cap on crit chance, because, duh.

    I don't even run crit chance perks, get out, They can take away all crit chance perks from the game for all i care. just DONT touch the god damn talent tree, nerf crit chance through perks not through the tree because our max crit dmg gonna suffer if I'm forced to use crit perks.

    Shooters are going lower and lower with higher level crap. It may have been a bit of an exaggeration, but not that much.

    I just realised how pointless this thread is, 90% of the devs use sniper. A nerf is never gonna happem
