  • Observed price: About $3,800
02

Damage and upgrades

High precision damage; upgrades can take it to 500 damage.

  • It is powerful but slow; keep a faster secondary weapon for targets that reach the boat.
03

Best use

Use the sniper rifle when the target path is predictable and the battlefield is open. It rewards preparation more than panic firing.

  • Watch one movement cycle before shooting.
  • Lead flying targets.
  • Use a faster secondary option when creatures reach the boat.
04

Multiplier play

Precision weapons pair naturally with 360, no-scope, headshot and distance conditions. Watch one movement cycle first so a missed setup does not slow a money route.
