...For discussion of the various advantages and disadvantages of various builds possible using the basic and alternative Sniper items.

I'll start by saying that using the Razorback will probably be something very useful should you be using the Huntsman.

Since the Huntsman favors midrange rather than longrange sniping, the level of accessability spies have to your back is quadrupled.

As a melee alternative for ANY class, the Razorback is something capable of proving VERY useful.

We already have several threads discussing the new sniper weapons. This is unnecessary.

But we lacked one discussing various loadouts, their advantages/disadvantages, and personal preferences.

I personally think I'll prefer using Jarate along with alternating between the Rifle/Huntsman, and Kukuri/Razorback.

The razorblech will only be useful when I need to delete something out of my briefcase.

for the sake of speed, a 1 denotes a original weapon, 2 is unlockable.

jarate replaces smg/rb melee:

Possible loadouts:

1,1,1
2,1,1
1,2,1

the only use of the razorback will be to hele enchante my level 37 sniper rifle of essence of rays to increase my mana and dps.

Using Arsenal's format 1 or 2,1,1. Why would you ever use jarate?

It depends how they play.  I could see myself using Jarate with the Huntsman depending on how Hunstman plays.

probably not for the AOE 35% damage increase, spy nullification, or the ability to put out flames.

I'd probably use Bow / Jar / Kukri TBH.
