Welcome to the WG Sniper Unit!

Following feedback from WG members at a TS Meeting, we're setting up an official list of WG snipers. This list will be based here, on this topic.


Requirements

The requirements to be a sniper on this official list are simple:

I. You must be 120+ F2P Combat (MINIMUM (Note: At wars, you stand a stronger chance of being selected as a sniper if you are of a higher combat level. Shallow? Maybe, but the snipers need to be the elitest of the elite.))

II. You must have experience in sniping. Whether that is from a WG Training Session where you have trained to be a sniper, or whether that is from a previous WG war where you have sniped well. This includes P2P Wars.

III. You must be a Guardian+ - Why? Well because I personally don't want some randomer joining, getting put on this list (and being able to see it), and then leaking the whole list of WG's snipers. Note: We reserve the right to disregard this third requirement in special circumstances.

IV. You MUST be able to TANK! As a sniper, you will be a prime choice to be piled. As a result, you must NOT be KO'ed. This includes P2P Wars.


How to Apply

If you meet these requirements, you are eligible to apply to have yourself put on this list, however, for all applications, a Raid Leader/Council will have to verify you can Snipe, and edit your name into the list (They will not reply on this topic for acceptances. Only for discussion about applications or declines, though hopefully they will not happen often tongue.gif) You may wonder why I'm being so tight with all of this accepting business... Well, to be quite honest, I'd rather be safe in the knowledge that our snipers can do a very good job, rather than worry about a sniper's capability. Surely that's understandable? tongue.gif

To apply, please fill out the following application:

CODE
[b]F2P Combat Level:[/b]
[b]Prayer Level:[/b]
[b]Snipe Experience (Yes/No) (If yes, describe what experience):[/b]
[b]Raid Leader/Council who you have proved your capability to (& have asked to validate you):[/b]



There is no limit on the amount of people that can apply to be a Sniper, however obviously at wars, the highest level'd snipers will be chosen (Note: At wars, only a few snipers are chosen, and usually the highest combat are taken). For ease, the Sniper Unit list will be arranged by combat level, for ease of staff when selecting snipers at wars.


Current Sniper Unit (Arranged by Combat)

e.g. Mugger84 - Level 126
  • Quikdrawjoe - Level 124
  • Groedius - Level 123
  • Karel Dude - Level 123
  • Reticked - Level 121
  • Tmal34 - Level 124
  • Vephyrus - Level 126
  • Jadi Simondz - Level 124
Q&A

I. (Q) Why is this topic in the security forums, rather than the War Forum or General Matters?

(A) Because I'd rather it be slightly secretive from the entire clan world so would rather keep it to members who WG have gotten to know (i.e. graduated).

II. (Q) How do I prove I can snipe if I'm not sniping at wars because not on this list?

(A) At some training sessions from now on, there will be a separate sniping exercise. However, do make sure you note, that if you have proved you can snipe to a Raid Leader/Council beforehand, they will likely validate your application.

III. (Q) I'm a Raid Leader/Council. How should I validate applications?

(A) Well, If a person's application is all good, and you know from personal experience that they can snipe, add them to the above list (ordered by combat level). Then quote their application and post Accepted or Validated etc. However, if you don't know if they have the experience or not, and they have named you as the person who is going to validate them, post that you are not validating them, and advise them to come to a training session neko2.gif. If they have not named you, don't post.


IV. (Q) Why is this a Sticky?

(A) Because it's an ongoing Unit, and needs to be actively seen.

V. (Q) Do the Sniper Unit have any powers over anyone else in the clan?

(A) DEFINITELY not. In fact, if anyone does use the fact they're a sniper for WG as some sort of sign of power, they will likely be removed from sniping... This list isn't to help YOU, it's to help the fall in leaders when choosing snipers.

VI. (Q) Do the Sniper Unit have separate IRC/TS Channels for wars?

(A) Yes and No. The Sniper Unit will indeed be in a separate TS channel with one of the fall in leaders, but as for IRC, they will remain in the same channel as everybody else. The reason they are on a separate TS channel is so that they can work together efficiently, however they remain in the main IRC channel in case the primary fall in leader of the war tells them (or some of them) to return to the main pile.

More Q & A will be added if other questions are asked.

Original idea brought up at a weekly TS meeting by Whizzy110

Just letting you know Mugger, Trials can't see Level 1. So that requirement isn't really necessary.^

Oh please, you were one of our prime snipers before you went off to camp if I remember correctly

Either way you cant fail, but we should have some snipers available to choose from war to war if some arent there

A great idea, if people are competant. For P2P more so than F2P though.

Cheyney forgot the idea of the trainee squad:
QUOTE
The idea for a trainee squad was suggested by Yingyang06.
The trainee squad would be a group of people who want to snipe, but do not yet meet the requirements, they would be trained by the snipe team.

It's a nice idea, but I do have one small concern, what if we have a war and only 1-2 (or none) in the sniper unit show up?
Oh and what about the australian wars? We also need snipers active in that timezone.

I disagree with 120+ combat. Defence should be a requirement, not combat. With say 95+ def you could tank longer than a level 120 with like 90 def. If you get what I'm trying to say.

Tanking has nothing to do with sniping, besides the fact you'll get piled quicker (even though you will eventually anyway).

Higher combat means you'll hit higher and more often when it counts.

the point of a sniper is to rape hybrids....99str and att are more useful than 99 def. If your an experienced sniper you won't even give them a chance to pile you unless they focus only on you.

Groedius + Joe Validated, I've seen you both in action and know you are excellent snipers. Karel I don't think I've seen you, so see if you could find another staff member who has to validate you neko2.gif
