Sniper Rifles are excellent in situations where the target(s) are further away than other weapons can accurately hit their marks. Most of the time, a single shot can eliminate a typical threat, but tougher enemies such as krogan, Geth Primes / Geth Armatures, or turrets will likely take more shots depending on the difficulty setting. Players who add two level X Frictionless Materials upgrades have the ability to use level X Sledgehammer Rounds without having to worry about overheating.Īlthough the heat emission is much higher than for other weapons, the damage for each shot can easily make up for it in the right hands. When players use Frictionless Materials of higher levels, such as VIII-X, overheating is no longer a factor.
Otherwise, use Combat Optics to increase accuracy, if you plan to use the sniper rifle at all ranges, or use a Heat Sink.Īnother method of dealing with overheating is to add Frictionless Materials upgrades.
The major drawback with this ammo type is the +500% heat generation, but given that sniper rifles almost invariably need to cool after every shot, this drawback is of little consequence. However, this can be taken advantage of by using High Explosive Rounds. Most rifles are designed only to fire one shot at a time, or two in quick succession before needing to cool, with ratings typically between 1.1 and 1.5 shots before overheating.
