Balance should not be based on real life or your perceptions of what power a weapon should have.

Saying "period" does not make it so. If a sniper is at range and in a position to move into cover between shots she will often be able to make multiple shots.

Btw welcome back $hield :D
Don't imply I don't realise how to bait shots before pushing. It's also not called strategy -- it's a tactic, and I hope you realise the difference. Also, I think strategy hasn't changed that much -- but that's a different discussion.
The question I want to know is why not 82 damage for sniper? It keeps the sniper + pistol combo and stops the 3 medkit issue.
