Hmmm I have to disagree. I have a 50 sniper and I have been playing a sorcerer. Wow what a difference, I can't really comment on Maras or sents but sorcerer blows away my sniper in terms of DPS and utility. Whats more Khem Val is a much much much better tank than Kaliyo. Kaliyo spent most fights face down very early and she is suppose to be a tank. Khem Val with noob armor on tanks elites two levels higher...with Kaliyo this is impossible (in fact I now use temple for higher DPS). I can waltz into a room and smoke everything with a sorc, I had to carefully plan everything with my sniper (don't get me wrong that was fun). But as a class sniper has too many limitations and does not have the DPS to compensate for those limitations. This is a design thing really. Sniper needs a serious overhaul..good idea, bad implementation...my sniper is on hiatus until something gives.
