As a little dose of real life, snipers always work better
in teams of 2's. This holds true in Tribes 2, as the scout
is the only one that can use the sniper rifle but isn't that
good in close quarters, it would be good to have someone to
back him up. Example: One scout armour with energy pack, mines
whiteout granade, laser rifle, blaster and spinfusor. And one
assault armour with ammo pack, mines standard grenades,
plasmagun, chaingun, blaster and missile launcher. Get to a
distant point so you can avoid cross-fire. Make sure you are
well elavated, then lay all the mines you have in front of you.
Now have the scout start sniping, and sometimes use the laser
designator so the assault armour can use his missle launcher.
If the enemy gets to close you should try to hold your ground,
but after five or seven sniper kills you should change position
so they dont find you.
