As a full time sniper, I've never had any problems with cloakers at any time. Yes, there have been attempts, but they have never effectively stopped me in my tracks.
No, I don't use the Ramjet, I don't waste my credits. When I'm engaged by a cloaker, I listen for noises, shimmers, and those tiny little things that allow you to know if you're being watched.
Never stop moving, and you wn't fall victim to a cloaked sniper. Remember, they only have 1 shot to pull off before being seen, and when that happens, you just have a normal sniper with indeed a weaker sniper rifle. I assume you know that the spawned weapons do less damage then their originals?
As for the shotgun, it's just a matter of luck for your cloaker to hit the face of the sniper. I never stop moving, so that just adds to the many varibles that must be considered. If you get too close, I'll see you, and I'll snipe you. If you're too far away, you won't get the kill as effectively as you think.
