How do you Res-Snipe?

Now that the PVE side of the game is slow, I've started playing Crimson Doubles and Trials with some friends. In the 4 hours I played yesturday, I didn't get one res-snipe. What is the most reliable way to res-snipe? Do you put the dot of your sniper in the middle of the ghost? When in the revive animation do you shoot? [b][i][u]Edit[/u][/i][/b] To be clear, I know that only certain snipers can one shot head shot on the revive. I am using the 1000 yard stare on my hunter.

    Well heres a quick tip that will help you over all ,play a few games and figure out where your enemy's head will be. For example when they round a corner knowing where the head will be at that moment eliminates having to move your reticle up and down leaving it to a side to side motion. Second they have changed the rez timer making it a bit more difficult to pull off that perfect shot. Players when now resurrected and or in the animation are invulnerable for a short time. Indicated most commonly by a white light surrounding them once the light is gone fire. What you will run into most the time is the infamous push. The way i have found to combat this best is to eliminated the pusher not the pushed. This is something that relies more on knowing head placement. I aim about the equivalence of the top of an orb stacked on the orb for a quick dome. Practice head placement even if you see a team mate round the corner get their head height and float there left and right. Practice makes perfect the harder shots come in to play when elevation is involves you have a greater advantage from higher up and head placement comes from instinct. Hope this helps :)

    • So listen to the selected answer guy but also when aiming, never follow the head, put your retical where there head is as soon as they spawn and when they bounce back up fire instead of following their head's path. Much easier this way.

      • I usually just aim at the orb (In and out of aim just in case some one flanks) And then I either quick scope or drag scope I find drag/quick scoping to be easier because when I hard scope I tend to hesitate a lot.

      • If you Rez snipe, you're a coward. End of story, no justification.

        • Rez sniping is for skrubs. It's like shooting someone who is afk because that person is defenseless. You can't move until the whole animation is over with, but you can be killed. It's BS. Yeah I know you have to push that person after you Rez them, but you shouldn't have to.

              • What I've found that works is to put your reticle about ~2 reticle spaces above the ghost. As soon as the head is remotely close to it pull the trigger.

                  With Defiance of Yasmin? Not enough impact, you can hit 'em right in the head and It won't kill 'em when they've got an overshield.

                  • Hold your reticle just above their orb, you'll see it change color as they are being revived. The orb is about chest high. They'll appear and kind of crouch, then stand fully upright. With your reticle in the right position, the head will be in perfect position as they stand up. Which is also the moment they are vulnerable. Shoot to soon (when they are crouched) and you see "immune"

                  • Not a pro at this but generally hit their head when their feet touch the ground and their head is in that spot.

                  • as soon as the enemy touch the ground i just shoot at head level :) most of the time insta death but if a warlock just self res you can still res snipe him but in crimson doubles you cant res snipe if he is using max armor :)
