Sniper Rifles

Introduction
Anyone who wants to do a stealth based run through should get to know the Sniper Rifles. Working under the Mantra of “One Shot, One Kill” is vital whenever using these. Not all of them support a silencer, especially the most powerful, but those that do make your life a lot easier. These are best for taking out targets at extreme range. This means that you can see your foes but more often than not they will not be able to locate you.

Bolt Sniper
Accuracy: 6
Rate of Fire: 5
Mobility: 4
Damage: 10
Range: 6
Stability: 5
Clip: N/A
Attachments: N/A
Ammunition: Bolt Sniper Ammo
These can only be found by quietly taking down Shadows. Any time you can get the drop on one of those you can get this gun. It is easily the most powerful Sniper Rifle. While the ammo is limited it will kill just about anything in only a few shots. Do not use this on anything commonplace. It is far better to shoot out weapon installations, heavy targets and anything else that stands up to your weaponry.

DSG-1
Accuracy: 9
Rate of Fire: 4
Mobility: 3
Damage: 8
Range: 8
Stability: 5
Clip: 6+1
Attachments: Tech Scope, Assault Scope, Reflex Sight, Sniper Scope
Ammunition: .405
This is the Sniper Rifle of choice for CELL units. It offers a deadly mix of pinpoint precision and stopping power. It is second only to the Ceph Bolt Sniper Rifle above. Grab it and use it for your own ends or until you find enough Bolt ammo. It is far easier to find ammunition for this gun than the Bolt Sniper so use it on any other Snipers that you encounter.

Gauss Sabot Gun
Accuracy: 10
Rate of Fire: 4
Mobility: 0
Damage: 10
Range: 10
Stability: 4
Clip: 4+1
Attachments: Tech Scope, Assault Scope, Reflex Sight, Sniper Scope
Ammunition: 10 mm Solid Slug
This is the late-game Sniper Rifle. It is the only one to trump the Bolt Sniper though it lacks the same amount of ammunition. Instead it has insane accuracy, power and range. Set this up for Sniping and you will have little trouble with whatever it is you need to kill at a distance.
