Sniper

Weapons: 1.) Crowbar - melee weapon 2.) Sniper Rifle - long-range weapon. Press your special ability button to activate your scope. Then hold down you fire button. A laser point will appear. The longer you hold the fire button down, the more powerful the shot will be. Always go for head hits, as they will surely kill the enemy instantly. If you hit their legs, it will slow them down. Your enemies can see the laser too, so point the laser to some unseen place, and when enemy comes, strike. Note: Your shot will hit wherever the laser is, NOT the center of the screen. So even if your laser is lagging behind your crosshair because of high ping, your bullet will hit where that laser is. 3.) Auto Rifle - the sniper rifle set on automatic. Not as accurate, but better close-combat weapon. 4.) Nailgun - same make as the scout's

Grenades: 1.) Hand Grenades - standard frag. grenade 2.) None

Speed: Average Health: Average Armor: Low Abilities - Rifle scope toggle

Comments: When you are a sniper, the most used weapon in your arsenal is, of course, the sniper rifle. Using the sniper rifle is explained above. In every level, find out the best sniper posts and stay there, picking off every enemy that exits their base or your base. Your biggest problems are spies, who sneak up behind you while you are happily sniping away, and backstab you, and anyone who carries a long-range weapon, including soldiers, pyros, and other snipers. Since you are a poor close-range fighter, your best bet is too stay in a place where the enemy will have to go through your heavy weapons, and soldier friends to get to you. Find that spot, and your pretty safe. Never go offensive, since you don't move that fast and your close-range weapons aren't powerful enough to fade a HWguy or the like. Stay at your post, and your all set.
