The Unholy Trinity of Sniper Backpacks: The Cozy Camper
Among the three Sniper backpacks, the Cozy Camper is perhaps the most useful. However, it's still too conditional to merit switching out the SMG or the almighty Jarate.

So I suggest one minor tweak:

+1 overheal every 2 seconds.
No overheal decay.


This would mean that you would reach maximum overheal in 2 minutes. It would also mean that...well, your overheal wouldn't decay. I think that this would be useful for the Sniper, since he isn't the front line type of class that can make use of an Overheal, and having one that can slowly build up to help him out of some potentially sticky situations, despite the increased damage recieved. The Cozy Camper, as it is, only seems to help you when you're under attack, which generally means death anyway, especially with an increase in damage recieved. So having extra health build up while you're sitting back would be super useful without being too overpowered.

Let me stop you right there, darwin's danger shield is way more useful since it lets you always take an uncharged headshot from another sniper at full health.

It's not the best, but anything is better then the Razorback.

If it's "the best" of the three then why buff it?

Razorback makes you Baby Shpee-proof. Any Spy with half a brain will just pull out his revolver and casually shoot you.
Darwin's is for snipers that wanna be tryhards and make countersniping impossible.
Razorback is for snipers that wanna be tryhards and hang with their team and make anything but countersniping impossible.

Cozy camper just doesn't offer a major enough niche to justify it. It tries to stop chip damage but just doesn't do a good enough job of it. Making it go into overheal though would fill the same niche, and that sorta defeats the purpose of a niche.

If you don't have the rest of your team near you, that works. The way to play with razorback though is to not be in that sort of scenario where they'll use their revolver against you.

Cozy camper I find makes you to slow. I like having atleast a slight movement speed while scoped.
Also, spies seem to become confused when they meet a razorback. I once spent a whole minute watching a spy try to line up his ambassador to my head (I was on a third person server) After a minute I turned around and chopped him up.

I use the Cosy Camper for the no flinch, it allows you to get nail those clinch shots on valuable targets even while under fire. Admittedly I only use it sometimes as Jarate is bae.
