If it's a power weapon, then it's both.

Supreme Dictator, Industrial Polluter, Megalomaniac, Corrupt Politician, Underhanded Reprobate, Rainforest Ravager, Puppy Kicker, Oil Spill Coordinator, Holiday Hater, and an Insurance Salesman.

It's a weapon I suck at using.

takes skill, even though it has great strength and range, noobs can't use it right often and some pro can't even use it correctly some times. the map your on would also greatly affect this. far as coward weapon, would be like saying a tank is a cowards weapond.

It's a power weapon. It's stronger than other weapons, it's anyone's choice.

It's a weapon that requires skill.

<(-_-)> Teh mokey is not amused

The sniper rifle is a cowards weapon. When you kill someone, you want to look them in the eye so they know you're the one that beat them to death! It also gives you the chance to pull some really zippy one liners.

Snipers do require skill, but I preffer not to sit back and make my impression by stealing other team members kills, I preffer to be in the thick of the fight using a Shotgun or Sword.

Still standing after a close quaters battle against un-even odds is much more rewarding than getting a killing spree without even moving from my hole.

Join our fight and finish it.

Power weapon doesn't take as much skill. I think its both pro and a noob weapon.

With me i can kinda snipe, but in my option the only people that should use the sniper are the people that can actually snipe someone before they do. so yea is a pro's choice.

Amen to that brother to me its more satisfying when u get up in his face and kill him instead of from a distance.

Don't worry, you're still your mom's favorite Bnet member.

Snipers are wussies that are afraid to fight.
