ruger or socom against barrett?

[Atom of Universe]

Many people with ruger take socom as secondary. If you are to confront 1v1 barrett what is better? To use primary ruger or secondary socom?
Maybe answer is different when we are talking about small map with many colliders or big map without many colliders?

[jrgp]

Only use the ruger if you have really good aim and can quickly take the barrett out with the first two shots of your clip. Otherwise, spam the barsteward with the socom and try to make sure all the bullets hit him / her.

[danmer]

i'd go with socom because of bink

Yeah, you can use the socom to bink a sniper.  It all depends how far away he is.  If hes too far, he'll be able to get the shot away before your bullets reach him. 

[Rai-Dei]

Yes, go with the Socom.  If you use Ruger you'll just be picked off.

[tehsnipah]

socom, that can distract barret more. use rugger if you know that he's reloading

[Ziem]

Barret > Ruger in many cases, also Barret > Socom (in many cases)...
If I'll have to choose, I'd take socom if he's full hp and ruger if half/low.

get some speed and suprise the barrett...he'll shit bricks

[a-4-year-old]

You would use the soccom so that you can shoot him by arcing over your shots, so he cannot shoot at you while you can.

[Graham]

M79 and soccom.  Kill the sniper with the m79 if you are good enough to get a good shot. Or just use the m79 to blast the sniper off his position and finish off with the soccom.

wrong, you should make that into a vicious circle

Barret>Rugger>Socom>Barret>Rugger..... and so goes. it's really true. as i said, socoms can fire fast enough to screw up people with barret. while barret can kill the rugger in one shot, sinde ruggers have slow shot, and ruggers can just shoot the socomers in 2 shots without any worries.

no, he should use bloodsaw... use those against red and they don't even know where they are.

It really depends on how good you are with each weapon.

Personally, I would take him out after he missed his first shot with a bullet to the head from my ruger.
How do I know he would miss? Because when you stay low to the ground, and jump forward then backflip quick enough he will miss-fire unless he is a patient sniper.

If you miss your first 3 shots, whip out your socom and blast him.

Otherwise just terminate him with your ruger.

Against a good barrett user you won't be able to bink him before he takes his shot, so your best bet is to try and make him waste the shot. I'm talking about unpredictable patterns, preferably in the upper direction, and fake movements.

You could use socom to spray and attract attention, fake a move, wait till he wastes a shot, then go in with the ruger for the kill.
Barrettard = Target Practice

Where? On open map? Or smaller/with a lot of boxes/colliders?
Well, in any 1v1 barret owns (can lose *sometimes* against spray).

Barrettard = Target Practice

Depends on player's skill... on publics - sure. Against experienced player it isn't so easy.

[excruciator]

ruger if you are equally good.
Socom, if you are decent.

ZOMFGWTFBBQSAUCE ITS THE BEST LEGENDARY AIMER IN SOLDAT WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ? 

[Sir Jeremy]

If you are good with ruger use it.
I'd personally would go with the ruger.
Also depends what map you are using, and how good you're opponent is with the barret.

Anyway, Ruger I'd use, secondary Law, or Knife.

Cheers.

P.S Need Ruger training add me xfire (xxxjeremyxxx)

THANKS

agreed. imho best method against snipers is to make them waste shot. just run and when you're going to enter open terrain (and you know he's gonna shot) make backflip etc. another method is to slowly (with jet or walk forward-walk back) enter the area of sniper shot. they're usually too much concerned about 'not-miss-the-shot' thing that they'll try to kill as fast as possible and probably waste the shot. barrett reload uses so much time that you can can kill him twice if not, use m79- even if you don't kill the sniper you'll move him from position and gain some extra time to finish him with soccom.

well I really don't like snipers in all games I have played so I learned to live with them
