− | + | The sniper rifle has the longest range of all weapons in the game, along with excellent long-distance accuracy as well as a high per-shot damage. Like the [[pila]] and [[charge lance]], the sniper rifle a reputation of maiming or even outright killing its victims. Due to the propensity of destroying limbs, it tends to make a poor choice if you intend to take [[prisoner]]s after a raid. | |
− | + | But, due to its sluggish firerate, actual {{DPS}} is one of the worst of the firearms, just on par with the neolithic [[greatbow]]. This leaves the sniper rifle to roles where the range is useful, such as provoking a [[siege]] to attack, or as one of best weapons to go hunting with. Also, close range accuracy is quite weak. This fact makes the sniper one of the most skill-heavy weapons of the game. | |
− | + | Compared to the [[bolt-action rifle]], the sniper rifle trades firing rate and accuracy at shorter distances for additional range, extra damage and improved long-distance accuracy. The sniper rifle is more expensive and has a larger research requirement, and isn't common from raiders, outside of sniper-only mercenary raids. | |
− | + | On average, the sniper rifle is best paired with a careful shooter up to level 14, then with a trigger-happy shooter beyond that point. | |
