>realize that my sniper is fucking useless and has no low noise attacks
Snipers are super strong in mid- to lategame and have good combat support options as well, but yeah they're easily the worst class for stealth. Sniper rifles are super loud even if you use a silencer, so the distance at which enemies can hear a shot is often like half the map. It doesn't help that there aren't many wide open maps where you can sit safely at a distance and not worry about who hears you, and even on maps that do have wide open areas you usually don't want to leave your sniper behind in a perfect sniping position because it often means they'll get shafted when it's time to exfil and they have to run through enemy reinforcements while the rest of your squad is three turns ahead of them. This makes in missions where you can't simply kill everyone, which is the majority of missions.
You can multiclass Sniper with something like Vanguard to get some stealth options (especially since sniper rifles + stealth crits = insane damage, but then you're really just playing a Vanguard who pulls out his big dick sniper rifle to put a hole in a motherfucker every now and then.

I really like using Snipers a lot, especially Sniper/Soldier multiclass which THE best combat character in the game IMO, but you gotta leave them at home if you need stealth.
