So what is actully the difference between them both? By that I mean in stats and that to compair.

[Smokaz]

ab sniper has heroic armor, fireup and less offensive power

[Dragon2008]

Does it still av cloak? And wat u mean by less offensive power?

[Smokaz]

yes he still cloaks

he deals less damage per shot, so he wont always 1 shot a guy.. someone else will have to flesh this explanation out

[EliteGren]

He has heroic armor, means he can't get countersniped in 1 shot. He has fire up and cloak aswell. However, he does not kill with criticals like all the other snipers. Imagine it like a riflemen garand with longer range and high cooldown.

ah ok was just debating on should I unlock it or not, cos i really fail with reg sniper

[Computer991]

If you fail with regular sniper then AB sniper might be your way to go he's fairly easy to use because he doesn't die so fast

[Smokaz]

if you suck with reg. sniper i think these special super snipers arent much of a improvement, when i really bother to support my reg. snipers I feel its a great failure to die with less than 30~ kills because of how expensive they are in munis

sniper is about risk vs reward imo

and these offensively rotten snipers that have been implemented shit all over what makes the regular sniper dangerous, aka skill preserving him

250 munis for a ab sniper? For me that says: 50 more munis, and he doesnt even kill 1 guy a shot?

Or the other asswipe terror sniper with his 265 muni cost for kommando-karabiner + medikit (nerf to his damage output). Guess what, players have eyes and they notice something is up when this 1 man squad keeps shooting at them and sometimes 1 shotting? removing "unit sniped" needs to come with over-the-internet lobotomizing to avoid the other player not understanding what's happening.

nah the regular snipers are better, these other sniper types are more expensive wannebe snipers catered to people who prefer extra surviability/less risk for lowered reward

Ab sniper is fine imo, he still 1 shots volks and support weapons ( should be a snipers main target), while being much harder to counter due to his increased health( armour really but the end result is the same....) . You cannot kill him with bikes, it just wont happen. Once he gets vet he is then able to 1 shot grens again, so its not really an issue. You should unlock him.

volks and mgs primarily, really? i guess i'm just of the old school where you had to be good with a sniper to win against wehr with its hilarious amount of weapons-toting grens, no wai you would ever touch boobaka or lai on RTC if you didn't snipe them to death, they just had too much munitions and vet 3 grens

[winisez]

The days of people running vet 3 defensive armies with 88's on RTC is over, as are the lmg gren hordes with ferocity and zeal, grens are still good, but not the terminators they used to be imo. A lot of axis players still favor volks over grens, esp with the amount of offmaps and on maps allies bring now, units whether they be volks or grens get isntagibbed, might as well be volks right?
