History
Note: This history is entirely fictional
The Epic Sniper-101 is a name given to the sniper rifle formerly manufactured by the JOHN ORD Company before giving VTX Works the right to manufature the weapon. After going through a few design iterations, the rights to manufacture the weapon was eventually given to KryoNM Supertechnologies Inc who utilized special caseless ammunition and further changed the weapon's design and fuction.
General Information
Compared to other semi automatic snipers, the Epic Sniper-101's damage is rather high at 418 damage at 200m and slowly drops to a rather low 190 damage at 1000m. While its damage is lower than some of the other semi automatic sniper rifles, the incredible range means the damage drop is not as severe.
As with the other semi automatic sniper rifles, fire rate is high though it is in the middle of its class at 180 RPM. This allows the weapon to have fast follow up shots if the first shot fails to kill the target. With its 12 round magazine one can kill multiple targets before reloading.
Much like the other weapons in its class, its bullet velocity is on the low end at 1500 m/s which makes it rather hard to accurately hit players on the move at longer ranges.
Trivia
- The model is made by NovaDoesntApprove and is animated by SparkedTheorem
- The animation was later refined by JimmyLJX
- It is odd that for a drum magazine, the total number of rounds is rather low. This is merely done for aesthetic reasons.
- The Epic Sniper-101 is one of the few weapons to undergo both massive model changes and stat rebalances over the course of the game's updates.
- When the Epic Sniper-101 recieved a new model, there was some backlash due to it clashing with the current style of Base Wars.
- The weapon used to be a extremely accurate full auto sniper which sets it apart with other snipers. This was changed multiple times with various rate of fire changes and accuracy changes until settling with a semi-automatic revamp.
- The stats for the semi-automatic revamp was made by one of the members of the community.
