In Night City, the player can find 4 unusual snipers with incredible damage and special additional effects. Each of them is good in its own way, so you need to choose wisely.
It's always important to make the right first impression., even in Cyberpunk 2077. When you meet a character you want to romance, you need to be polite. When you meet with a business partner, you need to be professional. A when you meet an enemy, you want to show him that you are not the kind of person to joke around with.
Say "hello" from a sniper rifle - what could be better? You can always switch to an assault rifle or melee weapon later, but your first salvo must be accurate and aimed. This shot guarantees success in battle. Not all snipers are equally good, but among the unique specimens you can find several worthy options.
Zero five
Class: Sniper rifle.
A type: Power weapon (standard).
Ability: Deals thermal damage and has a chance to inflict the Burn effect.
Unique feature: any type of ammunition automatically becomes explosive.
Zero-Five may be the cheapest of all unique sniper rifles, but she's still good. The damage is solid, aiming is pleasant, and explosive ammunition makes the damage ten times more powerful.
On the one hand, it's fun to take a shot and see how, after being hit, the enemy turned into a rag doll. But the real problem here is that ricochet is almost irrelevant in this build, and the low rate of fire means that thermal damage is extremely rare.
Breakthrough
Class: Sniper rifle.
A type: Electromagnetic weapons.
Unique feature: bullets ricochet and can pierce walls.
Breakthrough may not have the damage of those sniper rifles, which will be written about later, but it has one unique advantage. If you can hack and ping one enemyto see them all, then you can take cover and clear the room while remaining completely undetected.
An unloaded shot is enough tohit most normal opponents with a single headshot. Thanks to this chip, anyone but the boss or cyberpsycho will fail. If you create the perfect hacker, this weapon is made for you.
destroyer
Class: Sniper rifle.
A type: Electromagnetic weapons.
Ability: deals chemical damage and has a chance to apply the "poison" effect.
Unique feature: fires two projectiles per shot.
This model based on assault rifle, but the system of single shots and their power indicate that it's still a sniper. This weapon was called the "Destroyer" for a reason. It only takes a few seconds for him to take the life of anyoneand in this he has no equal.
Make two shots at once with a sniper rifle? This is within the power of the Destroyer. The damage is as wild as the imagination draws. Also, don't forget that this is an electromagnetic weapon, so its damage can be increased several times. As a result, you will get multiplied damage of two shots at once.
Supervision
Class: Sniper rifle.
A type: Power weapon (standard).
Ability: chance to apply the "bleeding" effect Has a built-in silencer
Unique feature: increased reload speed.
Overwatch doesn't have many mind-blowing additions at first. The "bleeding" effect is not a big deal for sniper rifles. The fact that it's a power weapon is also quite odd, because snipers don't count on bullet ricochets when using slow weapons with a telescopic sight. But there are two things that make the Surveillance not only the best sniper, but also, perhaps, the best weapon in the whole game.
Silencers are great, but this upgrade reduces the resulting damage. Surveillance has a built-in silencer that does not affect damage in any way. This weapon also has a lot of damage. Maybe the developers accidentally added a couple of numbers and forgot to fix it, but as a result Surveillance deals five-figure damage. This allows you to destroy almost everyone with just one shot.
For those who prefer for your build.
