The only ubers that matter have preventative measures to prevent people from going far out.
Not to mention the guy admitted solo bana, which I have personally never seen a Berserker do, because we have to stay in range of it.
RIT has done it.

No they dont have preventive measures, I can think of at least 5 ubers you could easily do with a few snipers only.

Re: Some more changes to Sniper
Assuming Trev meant a sniper squad... Rhino, already been done. Bana, already been done. Prince, already been done. Anni sucks as an uber, but is done.
Cba to look for a 5th.

Re: Some more changes to Sniper
He's talking about a squad and zerkers can solo some of those. Anyway sniper is balanced now zerkers sound like they gettin pissed cos they got competition.

Re: Some more changes to Sniper
I think the Analysis should be changed to take less time to charge up, but only provide the critical hit bonus. Seems a bit strange to me that it also provides RoF and damage bonuses, which can provide additional DPS versus a target which has not been selected for the charge time. I also don't think Sniper really needs that much of an all-around DPS buff in order to be balanced.
Having only damage and critical hit bonuses, with the damage bonus only being applied to the target, would be an even better option in my opinion... though that would require additional coding.

Re: Some more changes to Sniper
Looks borked. My mid game sniper was pretty legit before the patch, now hes just insane and I have not even spent much on him.

Cba to look for a 5th. You can solo Nate/Alby.An F2P could solo alby, given enough time. He has roughly 0 regen, just sit behind him and pew pew. The thing most people are ignoring is the time requirement. Yes, a sniper can pwn many things that a zerk/ShM combo can. However, zerk/ShM do it in maybe 3 minutes, while sniper takes much longer.

Thank you dear sir for pointing out that it takes a Zerk/ShM, versus one character. Points to you!

Alby was pretty easy. I was DPSing him with a Sterile Cannon, it took ages though, then LB managed to get behind him and own him with a physical weapon.
Blob was easy, but it's blob.
Sputty was the first one we done, start didn't go so great, as we couldn't see where he was all the time. And this was our first time DG'ing together, but we got him done in about 5-10 minutes.
We tried bana... My Juju got one shot by the laser (lol), and then we bailed.

I wonder how many times it will be pointed out that Zerk's have currently solo'd more Ubers then Snipers. In 1/10th the time.
