Team Fortress 2
Best sniper secondary
The sniper has some really good melee and primary weapons but the secondary item tends to be weak or not potent such as the danger shield, razorback, and the smg but jarate is probably the best and the most useful because of obvious reasons.anyway what do you think is the best sniper secondary?

I find stock SMG or jarate is fine... Nice combo is Jarate and Tribalman's Shiv, Infected bleed :D
If you're going with melee synergies (Bushwacka and Tribalman's Shiv) then Jarate would be the best choise. But if you want something to use in close combat to shoo a fly, I mean Spy, away with, then use the SMG or Cleaner's Carbine.

I use the razorback against pyrovision gibus spies, works like a charm

Jarate + Bushwacker is too stronk

Jarate is ALWAYS a good choice. Is it always a better choice? Not necessarily.

If you dont have/dont use bushwacka or have trouble with spies, snipers, or close range enemies, then an smg or a shield might be better.

Cleaners Carbine is a good idea, but it's too hard to utilize often with the weakness of the secondary.

Smg is pretty bad in damage, but the firerate and quick reload is ridiculous. Better with bigger targets. I have a hard time hitting scouts with the smg. I prefer unscoped headshots.

If you want to be that guy and take 2 headshots, DDS isn't bad. If you have tons of spies on the enemies team and you have a hard time expecting them, razorback may be good (if they are oblivious).

My Takes

Jarate-Probably the best one of the bunch. I mean, putting mini crits and/or extinguishing teammates help alot in the long run!

DDS - Don't like it. But its good to prevent that quickshot during a one on one sniper duel. so use it if you feel like it

Razorback - Unless you have a strange one, keep it on Volvo servers

Cleaners Carbine - The absolute worst of the bunch, Slow firing rate makes it hard to and a kill/ land crits. Maybe its good with a huntsman but i digress.

SMG - Great with huntsman, Good if you dont have Jarate, Insane firing rate!

If you want to be annoying to other snipers use the Darwin's danger shield

I pretty much exclusively use Jarate and Darwins Danger Shield (lel)

Jarate, Crutchwin's Crutch Shield, and thread necro are good.
