THIS, a persian persuader version of Sniper rifle ;3

omg

I don't know about you guys, but this looks like a semi-automatic rifle. Here's my thoughts:
+40% Fire Rate
-20% accuracy

And Married to my Chair <3's Idea of a smaller reticule, and headshot meter.

The stats are too good... I'd say you put away the Meter...... Just my point of view

on kill: turns victim to ice

Why aren't you working for VALVE ALREADY????

It seems almost like the SR25, a semi-automatic rifle designed for area denial, that being said it's about time the sniper got an effective defender's rifle!

Stat Concept #1:

+ Laser is not visible until after a kill (Laser remains for a few seconds and fades away)
+ Player gains charge from kills and assists (20% charge per kill)
- Player cannot charge rifle through scope
- Player loses all charge if he / she recieves damage

These stats allow a sniper to stay secluded from view, (Possibly behind enemy lines)
and reap benefits based on stealth, camping and precise elimination.
unfortunately it is not very effective against larger classes or overhealed targets until the rifle is charged through previous kills, this makes the sniper less useful on front-line defence or offence.

Stat Concept #2:

+ On kill: player doesn't unscope or lose charge
- 40% damage penalty

These stats make the weapon more focused on spam-based attacks, which would prevent enemies from crossing the open field for fear of being hailed with bullets.
I am not a fan of these stats as they could be frustrating and are unlike the sniper.

While aiming, shows enemy spy inside his disguise :D
+fragile bullets will cause bleed for 5 second
-50% ammo

Could it be any harder to come up with unique stats for new weapons? No wonder that there haven't been new weapons lately.

I really like these. How about something like 10% damage penalty and an effect similar to the machina's tracers, excpet it didn't last as long and was fainter so it wouldn't be as OP.

There are some pretty awesome stats here.

The SR MarkII
Level (number) Sniper Rifle

+20% more ammo
+Headshots charge Assassin Meter
+Once meter is full: All Shots are silent, mini-crited, and gain full health on every headshot
-40% damage penalty
-20% reloading speed
-Cannot noscope
-Tracer Rounds
