Field Dressing 4 Sniper Kits

[@bsurd]

Hi guys.

Have played with my m8 a couple of times as a 2 Man Sniper Squad.

Works very well.

The only Problem is see is:

The Special Forces Kit has 3 Fields(He often is alone far in enemy teretory,think that why he have these 3)

But the sniper act´s in the same way.

So i ask the question how would you find it if the Sniper kit also has 3 Fields for himself?

[SuperTimo]

nope we dont want lone wolfs , team up with a spec ops guy, he can spot, laze targets and give you filed dressings

[Thermis]

I can agree with that since when used correctly the sniper kit is a off by your self kit. The only problem I could foresee is snipers relying on the dressings more than finding good hiding spots.

i dont beleive there is any kit in PR that can be described as such, a sniper should have a spotter to be effective, so many times on maps like archer ive seen people on their own with the sniper kit who miss all their shots and can be killed easily by coming up behind them or even fromt he side. extra field dressings are just going to engourage more lone wolfing

SuperTimo is completely right. This is not the game for lonewolves who think that having a sniper kit makes them better and makes them think that they are contributing to the team by simply going off alone to get some kills. If you are this kind of person, I suggest vanilla

85% of the time snipers are a waste of a precious slot

now my numbers arent 100% accurate but you get the idea

If the sniper kit is used correctly then the sniper should be off by himself observing enemy troop movements. The sniper kit shouldn't be used as a "killing machine" kit I totally agree with that. The sniper should be hidden and take shots of opportunity. Extra field dressings would help. Saying that a sniper should always work with a spec ops is a waste of the spec ops resources when he could be off killing enemy assets instead of spotting or a sniper.

[SuperTimo]

possibly however you dont need a spec ops kit its just a good kit for a role, if in a sqd of 3 of an officer kit works well, or failing that a rifleman or medic.

guys, you read my open Tread?

I 90 % on the battlefield with my spotter. But then you have 4 fields for 2 Guys... Thats not very much if you be like me and my m8. We are so often far away of any friendly troops that can help us out if we get under fire and have to move fast to another good position.

I dont wanne the 3 fields for the sniper kit to force lone wolfing. Im only boring of get wounded and then have to move back the half map, an that on enemy teretory because of get a hit and be bleeding...

Or used my field, bleeding stops, and then get shoot because i wanne rearm and so have to leave my save position.

Hope now the "why" is explained a little better.

Btw. i hate lone wolfing guys. But as a Sniper team you have to open your own 2 man squad. Because the most SL dont want a sniper in the SQ that lay far away and dont bring any help...

there will be more dressings for snipers in 0.8
