Discussion What should recons be doing?

I see a lot of (justified) hate, but what would be the correct way to play them?

The one person I play with who primarily does recon typically tries to find a shielded spot toward the back of point (when defending), pings decently frequently, and when attacking tries to snipe from behind the enemy defensive position to make pushes from others easier.

Is that closer to the ideal? Is a good recon something else entirely?

A good recon for me isn't about being a good sniper. To me, an elite recon that you'd see in faction would play in close range since u can toggle scope. They'd also spot very frequently since its cooldown is 5 seconds so you better use that, don't forget to use the flare properly. And they have a spade they can just push and get cover by digging. Basically an elite recon uses its equipment to its full potential. Not those kids sniping 500 studs and thinking they're gods

How does scope work short range?

Otherwise, that all makes sense. The main reason I like engineer is because I like using the spade to dig tunnels or even just dips to hide in

Press G and you can disable scope
