Like most first-person shooters, snipers are incredibly powerful in [[https://alisondecamp.com/|overwatch2play Overwatch 2]] 2 . Snipers let your team take ranged advantage by dealing damage at a distance and picking off important targets during a fight. Their ability to instantly remove heroes from the fight, or provide support without endangering themselves, make them a strong asset to have on your team.

The most important thing for a sniper is to take an advantageous position that enables them to get their job done while staying out of danger. Every sniper hero has preferred spots on every one of the 32 maps in quick and competitive play to provide the most utility to their team. Fortunately, every DPS sniper in [[https://alisondecamp.com/|Overwatch 2 beginner guide]] 2 has some vertical mobility to get to these spots easily.

Control Maps

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/controlmaps.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/controlmaps.jpg]])

Control maps can be easy places for snipers to dominate. Since the maps are mirrored at the middle, you can use powerful sniping positions regardless of which side your team spawns on. The best positions are ones that cover the objective , but also keep you out of harms way from other snipers.

Busan Downtown

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/busandowntown.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/busandowntown.jpg]])

For Downtown Busan, the buildings above the main choke point provides excellent coverage over the entire area, while also giving you a perfect view of the enemy choke as well. The vents on top of the building also provide cover against opposing snipers using the opposite high ground to their advantage.

The only way to access this spot is by using vertical mobility like Hanzo's Wall Climb or Ashe's Coach Gun .

Busan MEKA Base

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/busanmekabase.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/busanmekabase.jpg]])

In MEKA Base, there is a high ground window on both sides of the map that overlooks the objective. This position gives you a great view of the objective, but more importantly, gives you an angle on your own team's choke points to assist in team fights from a safe flank position.

This spot can be reached from either side of the window using vertical mobility. The benefit to this position is that flankers like Tracer or Reaper either cannot reach this position at all or have to use abilities to reach you, giving you time to react to their flank.

Busan Sanctuary

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/busansanctuary.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/busansanctuary.jpg]])

For the final map in Busan, Sanctuary's best position is to hold the destructible window near the main choke point stairs. This spot gives you vision of the entire objective and lets you keep your eye on the flank on your right. If a flank does happen, you can just drop through the window to regroup with your team for help. Alternatively, heroes with movement abilities can scale the wall to avoid flankers as well.

Ilios Ruins

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/iliosruins.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/iliosruins.jpg]])

Ilios Ruins has a large platform between spawn and the objective. This position is useful for providing support fire to your team on the point, while also keeping a wide range of vision for flankers or other snipers.

To get to this position, either use your vertical mobility to reach the roof, or use the bricks on the ruined building (in this case to the right) to jump across and land on the roof

Ilios Lighthouse

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/ilioslighthouse.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/ilioslighthouse.jpg]])

On Ilios Lighthouse, the high ground overlooking the objective is your best sniping spot. You can see from the opposing choke point all the way to the objective, with easy view from supports on the point. This position also has great cover from the corner walls protecting your flank.

To get to this spot, take the stairs towards your spawn up towards high ground.

Ilios Well

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/ilioswell.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/ilioswell.jpg]])

Many players don't even know this spot exists. On Ilios Well, the middle building opposite of the windmill has one flat platform on each side , allowing snipers with movement abilities to stand on top and cover the entire objective.

The only way to this spot is to use vertical movement. You can either start from the objective or jump from the lattice covering both sides of the building .

Lijiang Tower Control Center

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/lijangcontrolcenter.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/lijangcontrolcenter.jpg]])

Lijiang Control Center has a helpful high ground on the outside of the objective, making it a perfect spot for snipers to sit. This spot shows you the entire main choke of the opposing team and full sight of the objective. You can get to this spot by taking the outside staircase directly before the walls to the objective.

Lijiang Tower Gardens

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/lijanggarden.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/lijanggarden.jpg]])

Lijiang Garden is quite a flat map, so there aren't many opportunities for high ground. This position at the back near the bridge is your best position to hold the objective. You can see any enemies on the opposite bridge and cover the objective .

Lijiang Tower Night Market

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/lijangnightmarket.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/lijangnightmarket.jpg]])

For the final map in Lijiang Tower, Night Market's best position is the high ground opposite of the objective. This spot lets you cover the entire front entrance to the objective, forcing enemies to either take a fight with you or make a different push .

To get to this spot, either use mobility to reach the platform or take either of the staircases leading upwards located at either side of your spawn.

Nepal Sanctum

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/nepalsanctum.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/nepalsanctum.jpg]])

On Nepal Sanctum, there are raised walls on the inner corners of the objective. These walls make perfect snipers perches , letting you drop back or forward for help from your team and giving view of the whole objective. This also reduces your risk of being flanked on high ground.

To get to this spot, use vertical mobility to scale the wall from either side.

Nepal Shrine

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/nepalshrine.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/nepalshrine.jpg]])

On Shrine, the best sniping position is on the elephant statue. This large statue isn't just for looks, and actually gives you a good view of the choke point connecting the enemy spawn and the objective.

The only way onto the elephant statue is by using Vertical Mobility.

Nepal Village

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/nepalvillage.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/nepalvillage.jpg]])

The last map of Nepal, Village, has a very split best sniping position. This spot lets you cover the main choke and any high ground pushes from the same place. This way, you won't have to rotate to a new area if the other team pushes from a spot your team isn't expecting .

This spot can easily be accessed by the many staircases leading to high ground near the objective.

Oasis City Center

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/oasiscitycenter.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/oasiscitycenter.jpg]])

On Oasis City Center, the best spot for snipers is above the main building. Since the platform circles the entire building in the middle, you can easily position to a perfect angle no matter where the enemy chooses to push from.

To get to this spot, you need to use either vertical mobility, or horizontal mobility from the high ground next to the objective.

Oasis Gardens

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/oasisgardens.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/oasisgardens.jpg]])

On Oasis Gardens, there is a small window that overlooks the entire objective, making it a prime area for snipers to sit. No matter what side you're team is pushing from, this spot can be used as support with spam damage or an off angle .

The only way to access this window is with vertical mobility abilities.

Oasis University

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/oasisuniversity.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/oasisuniversity.jpg]])

This off angle on Oasis University is the best position for this map. This spot gives you an angle to the enemy spawn, while also giving you the opportunity to drop to low ground for some picks while your team is fighting at the choke.

To get to this spot, head towards the side of the map facing the water. Head up the stairs and use the furniture against the wall to jump on the top.

Escort Maps

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/escortmaps.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/escortmaps.jpg]])

Escort maps give you a lot of freedom to move around and make plays. Since you're team is always moving, the enemy team may never know where you're going to show up for a sneaky pick .

Circuit Royal

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/circuitroyal.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/circuitroyal.jpg]])

Above checkpoint A on Circuit Royal, there is a high ground with a break in the upper wall that area can be accessed without any extra abilities. This position overlooks the checkpoint as well as the entire back line for the team pushing the objective.

This area also makes you harder to hit, since you only show your head to anyone on low ground . You can also look over attacker spawn if the attacking team has already captured the objective below, but has not completed the push to checkpoint B

Dorado

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/dorado.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/dorado.jpg]])

Right after checkpoint A on Dorado, there is a large gate with a platform on top of it. Snipers can use their movement abilities and take advantage of this high ground. This spot covers a large majority of checkpoint A and gives you a place safe from most flankers because of your height.

This high ground can be accessed from either side of the gate using vertical mobility or horizontal mobility from the high ground behind the gate.

Havana

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/havana.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/havana.jpg]])

Havana's final point is almost entirely open space, which this position takes advantage of. The high ground of the defenders castle wall gives you excellent cover and vision against those on low ground pushing the objective.

To get here, either take the staircase near defender spawn or use your movement to scale the wall from the attacking side.

Junkertown

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/junkertown.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/junkertown.jpg]])

Junkertown's first checkpoint is one of the most wide open area's in the entire game. This position at the back of the checkpoint takes advantage of that perfectly, letting you see almost the entire space between you and attacker spawn .

To get to this spot, use your vertical mobility to get on top of the water tower. Alternatively, if you have no vertical movement, the platform against the wall behind the water tower is a good secondary option for sniping since there is a staircase for easy access.

Rialto

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/rialto.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/rialto.jpg]])

This window is a very strong position for snipers on defense. Since this position gives you such a wide angle on the objective below, it is incredibly hard for the enemy to push the payload without dealing with you first. On top of this, you can easily drop backwards or even forwards to regroup with your team for support.

This spot can be accessed by the staircases on either side of this building.

Route 66

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/route66.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/route66.jpg]])

Another sniping spot that has been famous since the Overwatch 1 days. The back high ground of Route 66's final checkpoint provides great range of vision with very little flank routes to watch out for. This position also lets you sit further back, only exposing your head to those below, making you a much smaller target .

This spot can easily be accessed by the right staircase leaving defender spawn.

Shambali Monastery

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/shambali.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/shambali.jpg]])

Shambali Monastery is full of long range angles perfect for snipers. This position has great cover combined with perfect sight lines and easy escape routes.

The spot is found along the path of the objective after the first checkpoint.

Watchpoint: Gibraltar

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/watchpoint-gibraltar.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/watchpoint-gibraltar.jpg]])

This position before checkpoint A on Watchpoint: Gibraltar is very strong against opposing attackers pushing the payload. You can cover the low and high ground while using the boxes on the upper platforms for cover from the main choke.

This spot can be accessed through either the two staircases towards defenders spawn or the staircases to the left of the low ground choke.

Hybrid Maps

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/hybrid.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/hybrid.jpg]])

Hybrid maps will force you to mix up your playstyle. Unlike in control maps, you won't be able to sit in one area once that payload starts moving. The best spots for Hybrid maps are ones that give you clear sight lines with easy escape routes if the enemy is getting too close.

Blizzard World

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/blizzardworld.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/blizzardworld.jpg]])

The back high ground of Point A is the best position for sniping. You can get to this high ground from a staircase behind the objective or by using any vertical mobility. This spot lets you watch the main choke point near attacker spawn, while also letting you shift your attention between the left and right side of the objective .

This position also gives you an easy out in case of an unexpected dive, letting you escape to the left choke to regroup with your team or the flank route behind the objective.

Eichenwalde

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/eichenwalde.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/eichenwalde.jpg]])

Eichenwalde's checkpoint B ends with a castle door that has several platforms on it. The platform closest to the right is your strongest choice since it gives you the best vision over the entire map. This spot also gives you a safe escape route to the wall below you if you need to escape a dive or an opposing sniper.

Snipers can either use their movement abilities to get to this platform or jump against the bricks of the wall below to climb upwards.

Hollywood

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/hollywood-1.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/hollywood-1.jpg]])

One of the most popular sniping positions in the entire game is the elevator on Point A of Hollywood. The elevator gives you full view of the objective as well as every entrance the enemy can use to enter the objective . Flankers will have to use movement abilities or use the elevator and alert you of their presence to reach this position.

To reach this area, you can use the automatic elevator attached to the platform or use your vertical mobility.

King's Row

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/kingsrow.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/kingsrow.jpg]])

For King's Row, the best position is the high ground behind Objective A. This spot gives you a perfect angle of the enemy choke point with two separate escape routes if you're in danger.

You can get to this spot either from the indoor staircase near the mega health pack or from the lounge staircase towards defender spawn. If you need to get to this spot quickly before another push, you can also simply use vertical mobility to jump back up to your position.

Midtown

(Image: [[https://static0.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/midtown.jpg|https://static0.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/midtown.jpg]])

This window on Midtown's first objective is on of the premier sniping spots in Overwatch 2. The shape of the window makes only your head visible and gives you complete vision over all entrances to the objective. This position also has a window leading directly to the objective to the left, making rotating very easy if the enemy reaches the point.

To get to this area, either use vertical mobility to reach the window or take the stairs in the room to the right of the objective.

Numbani

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/numbani.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/numbani.jpg]])

This position on Numbani is by far the best for sniping. The high ground of Point A gives you view of every single entrance to the objective, with multiple options for escape if a dive occurs.

To get here, either use vertical mobility from the objective, or take a left from the staircase leading up to the opposite high ground.

Paraíso

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/paraisio.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/paraisio.jpg]])

The best position for Paraíso is on the rooftops before second point. This part of the map makes it very easy for the defending team to take advantage of high ground, making it much harder for attackers to push the payload below.

To get to the rooftops, either use one of the three staircases leading upwards near the second checkpoint, or a vertical mobility ability.

Push Maps

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/push.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/push.jpg]])

Push maps are like a mix between Escort and Control Maps, with each team pushing a robot between a mirrored map. Similar to Control maps, the map being mirrored plays in your favor, since certain spots aren't locked behind what side you spawn on . You want to use this to your advantage and take powerful positions away from the enemy team .

Colosseo

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/colloseo.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/colloseo.jpg]])

Colosseo has many beneficial positions for snipers, but the best of them is the high ground window above the bridge. This position gives you view over the entire bridge while letting you swap between windows to see nearly the entirety of your defending side.

Heroes on the defending side can access this spot through the windows or the staircase near the final checkpoint. Alternatively, heroes with vertical mobility can enter through the windows of the enemy team's high ground for a sneaky off angle.

Esperança

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/esperanca.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/esperanca.jpg]])

Esperança's best position is in the house that overlooks the second half of the map. This spot gives you perfect vision over the objective after checkpoint A, while also giving you a reliable escape route to your team through the house.

This position can be easily accessed via the stairs from the bottom floor. Alternatively, you can reach the windows using movement abilities if you need to quickly return to this spot during a push.

New Queen Street

(Image: [[https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/newqueenstreet.jpg|https://static1.thegamerimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/newqueenstreet.jpg]])

Right before the first checkpoint on New Queen Street, there is a large flat area behind some trees. This spot works for both attack and defense, depending on where the push robot is. This lets you cover your team from far behind while they defend the objective, or sit closer to the middle building and find an off angle if you're team is pushing.

This area can be reached by either going to the downward staircase of the main street on defense, or through the middle building to reach the same place on the defenders side.
