Hey guys, I just noticed there are two infiltrator weapons that are sniper rifles, but have ironsights. One is a bolt action and one is a semi-auto. I was wondering how they compare to the scout rifles.
For pure stats, see https://docs.google.com/a/dansomusi...vNLMApVdEtIU1NKenEzNzZOSWNaanFqSUVxLWc&gid=12 Haven't tried them though. I actually only now realized that there is a sniper with the description of being better suited for short-mid range... I had my targets set on the Semi-auto Scout Rifle, but now I'm not so sure... What optics can these Snipers have? I assume it's the same for all three factions ( I go TR). If these can have the same optics as a scout rifle, including a laser dotty, I think I just found the weapon of my choice.
SAS-R only goes up to 4x and you can't put a laser sight on it. It's got a quick bolt on it though, so once you get a rhythm you can pump out shots pretty quickly. I am using it with suppressor for mid range flanking. Haven't tried the scout rifles yet.
Yeah I am looking into these as an alternative for the scout rifles. The semi-auto Impetus one looks interesting, it does more damage then the scout rifle, with less recoil, same CoF, faster rate of fire, same mag size, and a longer reload time. You can equip up to a 4x scope on it.
