View source for Obtaining Sniper achievements

{{Show achievement|Sniper|Australian Rules
| obtain-level = Medium
| obtain-text = Aim for Snipers who are unaware of your presence. Sniping from unexpected places can greatly aid in catching them by surprise. A headshot will instantly kill any Sniper who isn't overhealed or wearing the [[Croc-o-Style]] item set.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Beaux and Arrows
| obtain-level = Hard
| obtain-text = It is recommended to kill the Medic first, as he will likely be in the rear and more difficult to hit than the Heavy. Use Jarate and have a friendly Pyro light your arrows to do more damage. Although you have the Huntsman equipped, keep a moderate distance from the pair.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Be Efficient
| obtain-level = Medium
| obtain-text = The kills do not have to be attained in just one life, so take your time to aim and charge your shot. Slower classes, such as Heavies and Soldiers, make good targets; there is no need to risk missing by trying to shoot a Scout.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Be Polite
| obtain-level = Very Easy
| obtain-text = Taunt with your melee weapon equipped immediately upon killing an enemy. 
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Consolation Prize
| obtain-level = Very Easy
| obtain-text = Spies are always looking to backstab unaware Snipers. If you really want to help with the progress of this achievement, don’t use the Razorback.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Dead Reckoning
| obtain-level = Medium-Hard
| obtain-text = This achievement will require either good timing or good luck. If consciously attempting this, engage lone enemies in combat and prepare to fire an arrow at their head right before dying.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|De-sentry-lized
| obtain-level = Medium
| obtain-text = One fully charged shot from the Sniper Rifle will destroy a level 1 Sentry Gun, while two fully charged shots will destroy any unshielded Sentry Gun. Beware of Sentry Guns shielded by the [[Wrangler]], which will take far more shots to destroy. If an Engineer is repairing the Sentry Gun or using the Wrangler, kill him first. 
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Dropped Dead
| obtain-level = Medium
| obtain-text = While Scouts aren't the easiest targets to hit, they can still be killed with good prediction. Keep an eye out for areas where Scouts might double or triple jump to access.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Enemy at the Gate
| obtain-level = Easy
| obtain-text = On any map with setup time, charge your shot and fire at a target immediately after the gates drop. In [[King of the Hill]], you are able to accomplish this anytime before the [[Control Point]] is initially captured.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Friendship is Golden
| obtain-level = Very Easy
| obtain-text = Throw your Jarate at a teammate who is on fire to extinguish them. 
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Have a Plan
| obtain-level = Easy-Medium
| obtain-text = Snipers don't excel at flag running. However, if an opportunity presents itself, take the Intelligence and run, using your Submachine Gun or uncharged shots from your primary weapon to defend yourself.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Jarate Chop
| obtain-level = Hard
| obtain-text = You must kill three enemy players that were all hit by the same Jarate. Because the Sniper's survivability is so low, having a Medic deploy a normal ÜberCharge on you can help considerably. It is recommended to equip the [[Bushwacka]], which will deal full Critical hits to your targets.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Jarring Transition
| obtain-level = Easy
| obtain-text = If you bump into a cloaked Spy, throw Jarate at his predicted path. Use your Jarate to check corners and recesses where Spies using the [[Cloak and Dagger]] may hide. This achievement can also be obtained by using [[Mad Milk]] to reveal a Spy while playing as the [[Scout]].
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Jumper Stumper
| obtain-level = Medium
| obtain-text = Keep an eye on areas that require a rocket or sticky jump to access. While it is harder to land a headshot on a midair opponent, keep in mind that those who rocket or sticky jump will already be damaged; a fully charged shot should suffice.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Kill Everyone You Meet
| obtain-level = Medium
| obtain-text = This achievement will be obtained naturally after a decent amount of time playing as Sniper.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Kook the Spook
| obtain-level = Easy
| obtain-text = Your Kukri is your natural defense against Spies. Turn around and Spy-check nearby teammates whenever you hear the Spy's decloaking sound.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|My Brilliant Career
| obtain-level = Medium
| obtain-text = Snipers earn 1.5 points per headshot, allowing them to quickly climb the scoreboard. If you are having problems accumulating points, play as a different class before switching to Sniper again. Medics, for example, tend to accumulate a disproportionate amount of points per life compared to their teammates. Once you've attained a sizable lead, switch to Sniper and finish the round.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Not a Crazed Gunman, Dad
| obtain-level = Medium
| obtain-text = Wait to kill your target until they are on top of the Control Point or Payload cart.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Number One Assistant
| obtain-level = Easy
| obtain-text = The description is misleading; for this achievement, you must get five assists in a single life. Throw your Jarate where players tend to congregate, such as around chokepoints, control points, and the setup gates at the start of a round. Using the [[Sydney Sleeper]] allows you to inflict Jarate at longer ranges.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Parting Shot
| obtain-level = Easy-Medium
| obtain-text = If you're far enough away from an invulnerable target, they will probably not be paying attention to you. Keep your crosshair on their head until the ÜberCharge wears off, then fire.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Pincushion
| obtain-level = Easy-Medium
| obtain-text = Quickly fire multiple arrows at an unaware Heavy, especially one who is overhealed. To avoid accidentally killing your foe, do not aim for the head or charge your shots.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Rain on Their Parade
| obtain-level = Very Easy
| obtain-text = Medics are usually found healing another teammate, so aim your Jarate directly between him and his patient.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Robbin' Hood
| obtain-level = Medium
| obtain-text = Always try to snipe from a place that has a direct line of sight to the paths that lead to your Intelligence. Scouts will often try to take your Intelligence, so pick them off as they return to their base. 
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Rode Hard, Put Away Wet
| obtain-level = Medium-Hard
| obtain-text = While obtaining a domination is relatively easy, getting close enough to hit your victim with Jarate without being killed is another story. Launch your Jarate while flanked by teammates to avoid being singled out.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Saturation Bombing
| obtain-level = Easy
| obtain-text = Throw your Jarate into a crowd and hope it hits four people. This is best done where players tend to congregate, such as around chokepoints, control points, and the setup gates at the start of a round.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Self-destruct Sequence
| obtain-level = Easy
| obtain-text = Aim for the head and don't bother to charge, as a headshot will kill any Sniper that is not overhealed. Don't use the [[Sydney Sleeper]] and don't bother trying to headshot Snipers wearing the [[Croc-o-style Kit]].
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Shafted
| obtain-level = Medium-Hard
| obtain-text = Find an unaware enemy, such a busy enemy Sniper, and kill him with the Huntsman's taunt. This is somewhat easier than other taunt kills, as it only takes one second to thrust the silent arrow that stuns your target.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Shock Treatment
| obtain-level = Medium-Hard
| obtain-text = Once your shield is destroyed, pounce on the Spy with your Kukri. Unfortunately, if a Spy sees your Razorback, they probably won't try to backstab you, switching instead to their [[Revolver]] or [[Ambassador]]. You may have better luck against inexperienced Spies or an enemy Spy intentionally trying to achieve the Die Another Way achievement.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Shoot the Breeze
| obtain-level = Hard
| obtain-text = Sniping a fully cloaked Spy is generally is the result of pure luck. Look for shimmers of Cloak and shoot where you think the Spy will go. Charge your shots to ensure you can kill the Spy even with a bodyshot.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Socket to Him
| obtain-level = Very Easy
| obtain-text = Try to headshot any Demoman that you see. Demomen will often stand still while laying sticky traps and will usually pay little attention to you when locked in a melee battle.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|The Last Wave
| obtain-level = Very Easy
| obtain-text = Taunt with your primary weapon equipped immediately upon killing an enemy.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Triple Prey
| obtain-level = Easy
| obtain-text = The three kills do not have to be done on the same enemy or in a single life. You can change your loadout at any time during the round, so it is possible to perform this with three different melee weapons, for example.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Trust Your Feelings
| obtain-level = Medium
| obtain-text = A no-scoped shot will only deal 43-57 damage. If need be, weaken your target with a headshot, Submachine Gun fire, or [[Jarate]] first.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|Überectomy
| obtain-level = Medium-Hard
| obtain-text = Killing enemy Medics is one of your highest priorities. Keep in mind that Medics will actively avoid wide, open areas to avoid being sniped, so hit them from an unexpected angle.
}}
{{Show achievement|Sniper|William Tell Overkill
| obtain-level = Easy-Medium
| obtain-text = Heavies are rather immobile. Aim for the head of every Heavy you see, especially if said Heavy is standing near a wall. Eventually, you will kill the Heavy while pinning him to the wall, earning the achievement.
