OH Sniper
Posts: 225 | Subs: 1
If i remember correctly it has now as much health as the soviet counterpart but only being 1 guy.
Would be "balanced" right ?Problem is soviets permanantly have to invest 90 mp to get the same survivability.
Not taking into account, for instance faster cloak time,reload,aim,incendiary.
Opinions pls

It deserves the spotlight, as its something different than just a load of grens.

Before patch sniper was high risk high reward now its like high reward and almost no risk due to health and its basic skills

Soviet Sniper fights smaller squads generally so this makes up somewhat for reload. What remains is incendiary vs flares and the better cloak on German Sniper.

Sorta like gren spam to 222 vs soviet sniper, except more efficient

Allies are close-mid combat units vice versa with grens its easier to kill snipers.
I'd imagine RE spam them caches m20 Rush would work VS ost sniper

May be a good idea though if he goes usual build and then sniper it will hardly work.

Today you just killed my sniper with your M20 by chaising it into the base, after u forced a retreat of it. You didn't have any problems doing it.... Conclusion: Sniper still dies against hard counter. Thing that is changed: sniper doesn't die from looking at it.

A single model also means one crit and it's over. Don't just glance at the advantage and forget about the rest.
Except a lot of crits don't mean that it is over. Flanking a sniper and throwing a grenade over a wall and under his feet will not kill it. Hitting it directly with a rocket won't kill it. Hitting it in the face with an M42 AT gun won't kill it. Hitting it directly with a mortar will not kill it. Hitting it in the face with a bazooka won't kill it. Most of these things will kill a soviet sniper team because of their low health and the AoE damage; or at least will cause 90mp bleed. The only crits that kills the OH sniper that will not kill the SOV sniper, is a death crit caused by another sniper or an AT weapon with >82 damage and no AoE. The fact is that the OH sniper is now more survivable than the 2-man Sov sniper team, with the additional benefit of having a much better cloaking system.

60 Hp would be enough and the difference of 20 hp will just make up for his better stats.

Yes you are right it has to fight more entities,in the case of usf he just has to fight 5(4) man squads which usually cost 28 or more manpower.The manpower bleed dealt is the same when comparing OH/SOV not OH/USF.

I agree that he is now atleast on par with the Sovietsniper (no more sprint, finally), maybe even a bit better. But then we also have to consider the whole armys, not only the 2 units in a vacuum.
