Good post. I agree with mostly everything. As a sniper, I am very effective if i dont get noticed. I definitely have tough time bringing down a healing sorcerer who is geared. Interrupts are there but they just don't do enough justice. once or twice i see absorb or deflects while i have the player interrupted. Lot of issues with snipers but I am sticking to it since I really have no time to reroll another 50. Hopefully they will buff snipers or at least fix the known cover issues and some other known issues. I think just fixing the class bug might even make it little more fun to play the class.

lol. That video is spot-on!

this is pretty funny. Obvious troll is obvious.

Sniper is def a great class as many have said here. It is not a class that everyone will enjoy because you have to know how to play the sniper. Anything you need to do has to be done in Cover which forces you to position your self properly. The roll-over cover is so damn bugged it's not even on my bars to use. I only use crouch for now. Some of the skills do not happen sometimes after seeing the load bar being 100%. When you get into cover to get insta snipe; most of the time that doesn't get triggered. I've tested this many times but i still have the talent points in it and hoping for a fix. But yah, as someone said earlier, the class is bugged and needs some work. The class was not so bugged in BETA when i played it. I am not sure why it is so bugged after release.

I'll have to agree with OP. The rollover mechanic needs help. I have rolled into wrong side of the mobs and pulled agro. I have ofcourse learned to drop my cover before targeting enemies because when you have enemy targeted, the agent rolls over to nearest visible cover instead of dropping his own cover. Many times I just zoom in completely into the floor to drop cover if I have enemies targeted due to auto-targeting agroed mobs. It would make things 10x easier if they removed the rollover cover. Just keep the drop cover skill, it does work perfectly. What i don't get is why would the agent rollover to places if he can just drop cover wherever he is standing. It just seems so dumb for the agent to use all that energy to rollover behind an object. Not to mention that sometimes the agent doesn't drop the cover or rolls-over to nearest object. I keep pressing the button and he just stands there. I am used to the work-around now but this needs to be fixed to enjoy the game play.

I actually lol'd at this because it's so true.

Since this is the most active thread, thought i'd make a post... why the hell not. But yah... i really thought i'd be one of the earlier access people since I ordered mine on 7/23/2011 and applied the code on the same day as well. I guess not. At this rate, people that ordered like last month or last week probably will get 1 day of early access, or maybe few hours of early access. Sux... kinda bad for them since they did pre-order but wont get the long enough early access time.
