Sniper (tf2)

Hailing from Australia to New Zealand and raised in the unforgiving Australian outback, the Sniper is a tough and ready sharpshooter. The Sniper's main role on the battlefield is to stick to the high places and pick off the enemy team (especially the dangerous ones). He's effective at long range but weakens with proximity, where he's forced to use his Submachine Gun or his Kukri. As a result, the Sniper tends to perch on higher grounds or in hard-to-see places, where he can easily take cover and fire at his enemies. He was born in August 9th. Although he's typically known for instantaneously killing enemies at a distance, the Sniper can quite use the Huntsman to get closer to the enemy. Additionally, the Sydney Sleeper and the Jarate (Sniper's pee) allow him to take on a support role by causing enemies to take mini-crits. After Mann co. was disassembled by Grey Mann, Sniper went into hiding back in his childhood home located in Australia. When the team was being reassembled, Miss Pauling and Demoman traveled across the globe to reach him. Sniper was less then ecstatic to be found, as he knocked the two unconscious and begun interrogating Miss Pauling about the true origins of his parents. Miss Pauling complied and explained that he was born in the underwater country of New Zealand, however as the country was being flooded his scientist parents placed him in a rocket ship aimed for space. The ship, however, malfunctioned and sent baby Sniper hurtling towards a small property in rural Australia, where he was then raised by two loving Australian parents. Sniper was happy to find out that the Team Fortress crew was heading to New Zealand to find the last of the Australium, given that the excursion may give Sniper the chance to find his biological parents and when the arrived he was greeted as such. Sniper's real parents were the last surviving New Zealanders and Sniper had escaped the sunken New Zealand in a single-seated rocket - but purely by accident, as both his father and mother had wanted to use it themselves. Their reunion was cut short when Sniper's mother, escaped New Zealand in a new rocket ship, his father stole their submarine, and Sniper was shot and killed by the sniper of the Team Fortress Classic team. Sniper was, however, resurrected by the Medic, much to the TFC Heavy's dismay. After seeing what was on the other side (his adopted parents and heaven) Sniper states that now that he knows whats waiting for him, he's the most dangerous man on the island as he no longer fears death. He then escapes and rendezvous with Spy, saving him from the TFC Sniper. A weapon, arm or armament is a device that can be used with intent to inflict damage or harm. Weapons are used to increase the efficacy and efficiency of activities such as hunting, crime, law enforcement, self-defense, and warfare. In ba roader context, weapons may be construed to include anything used to gain a tactical, strategic, material ,or mental advantage over an adversary or enemy target.

The sixth one is a Razorback, which seems to be a hand-carved tribal shield with a car battery attached to it. If a Spy attempts to backstab a Sniper wearing the Razorback, the Spy will get zapped and becomes stunned for 2 seconds, and can move but cannot attack for the duration. However, If a Flying Guillotine is thrown at the stunned spy via a scout, it will not be a critical hit, showing that the spy is not technically stunned. It blocks 1 backstab per life/re-supply cabinet visit. Even with the razorback, a spy can take out a sniper with 3 shots of the revolver, 2 with the Ambassador as long as one is a head-shot, or even just one with the Enforcer while undisguised, though this was later nerfed to only whilst being disguised.

The last is the Tribalman's Shiv, which is a Ramsey with a jagged blade. It is much weaker than a Kukri, but deals 6 seconds bleeding damage that can reveal Spies and out-damages the Kukri over time.

A Sniper's job is to scan the area for potential targets, and more specifically, make good use of his distance and obscurity by making few, but effective shots, and not remaining in one area for too long at a time. More importantly, as the sniper IS a support class, his role is more importantly to take out extremely valuable assets of the opposing team, i.e.: Heavies, Medics with full or high uber charge, Soldiers using area-buffs like the Buff Banner, Concheror, and the Battalion's Backup. A single Sniper can cover a very large area, making him a very dangerous threat to be up against. While powerful as a field presence, the Sniper still needs to be extremely wary of enemies that have slipped past him and could be making their way to his hiding place to kill him, considering especially the fact that despite his high-damage output, he still has the same health as that of a scout. A Sniper also need-be aware of potential targets being able to see the enemy-colored points of light cast by the rifle's laser sight. To counteract this, a Sniper can aim at a nearby obstacle, obscuring the laser from the enemy but still being able to monitor something like an enemy doorway or the Capture Point, (keep in mind, while the presence of that ominous looking laser-point can tell your enemy "you're being watched", it can actually play a valuable mind-game on the enemy and discourage them from using a certain exit, which can give your team the tactical advantage of a well coordinated 'bottle-neck' ambush).

A Spy has the best chance of taking out a Sniper, just above that of another sniper or a scout. Activating their cloaking device, a Spy and slip past a Sniper's guarded area virtually undetected to sneak up behind them and back-stab them. As mentioned, Snipers can take down each other as well, but in this case, it boils down to who is the faster, better shot, or whomever is more aware of the situation. Sniping in general is hard, it requires skill and dedication to learn how to master those headshots. Start off by picking sniper's most favourite targets, the heavies. Get those headshots, then try to headshot little faster targets, like soldiers. And slowly move up the ranks. You must know when to shoot and when not to, where the best sniping locations are and where enemy snipers might be hiding. -Check for enemy sniper dots. -Keep an eye on your back. -Mind your health, you only have 125. -Prioritize targets. Medics and heavies first, soldiers and demos second. -Time your Target to get a critical Shot. -Bring Jarate. Jarate is good at finding hidden cloaking spies. When you bump or see a spy cloaking, throw a Jarate at them. so it will reveal wheres the spy going. Also Jarate is good for extinguishing you or your teammates from fire. -Try to take down level 3 sentries. You are the second best class at removing them without assistance from your team, and do a very good job of it. Don't go out of your way, however, and don't try and do it if your team is already there. There's nothing more frustrating than a friendly soldier running in front of you and back again, leaving you with the four sentry rockets to deal with. -Try to snipe engineers behind their sentries. See an engineer hiding behind a sentry? Just make sure the engineer's head is visible above or outside the silhouette of the sentry (even if you can see his head THROUGH the sentry, you still can't hit him as the sentry hitbox blocks it), aim a little higher than his head (head hitboxes are alarmingly big in TF2) and pull the trigger. Then simply unload one fully charged and one partially charged shot to drop the sentry. -Try to hit your Enemy -When being sniper, don't forget to always move (but not when scoping), When you are scoping, the chance you get headshot is 50% Because your movement will be slow, do it after you shoot (It's recommended because you can run from an enemy headshot.

Half rugged outdoorsman, half alien observer, this taciturn strip of beef jerky has spent the better part of his life alone in the bush, slow baking under the Australian sun.

The Sniper, Mundy, has a very distinct appearance. He looks nearly twice his age, due to him having poor routine care of his body. He wears a RED long-sleeve tee with a popped collar, with the sleeves rolled up, and his emblem coated in yellow and orange on his shoulders. On top of that, Sniper wears a brown, open bulletproof Vest. A strap goes across his chest, holding up a bag on his back full of spare clips. He wears gray-brown tactical pants, full of pockets to hold Jarate and other things. Sniper wears men’s dress shoes and a cowboy-esque hat, paired with bright, warm yellow-tinted glasses.

“Snipin's a good job, mate! It's challengin' work, outta doors. I guarantee you'll not go hungry. 'Cause at the end of the day, long as there's two people left on the planet, someone is gonna want someone dead.”
