LONGWAKE
Sniper rifle
Ghost UnionA copper capacitor accelerates a single dense projectile after a short audible charge. The energy trail identifies the firing roof, making every shot an immediate relocation decision.
Operating principle
A copper capacitor accelerates a single dense projectile after a short audible charge. The energy trail identifies the firing roof, making every shot an immediate relocation decision.
Modification choices
A variable optic trades a broad view for precise distant identification. A bipod steadies a fixed position but prevents a fast exit. A thermal baffle delays heat shimmer; it does not hide scope glare.
Engagement doctrine
Observe before firing and relocate after revealing your line. Best for Trio or Squads overwatch; Solo users need a close backup. In PvE, wait for a machine’s weak component to open.
Strengths, limits & counters
Exceptional reach with an unmistakable warning. Break sight at the charge tone and avoid returning to the same opening.
Reading the specifications
Damage is one unarmored torso hit at close range; a burst rifle reports one projectile, not an entire burst. Rate is nominal cycling speed; burst pauses, charging, cooling and reloads reduce sustained output. Capacity counts projectiles, shells or charges per load. Range describes the intended engagement distance. Recoil is a 0–100 control-demand index: lower is steadier, not weaker.
Operators & modes
Recommended operators: MOTH, SABLE. The displayed range is 280 metres in this fictional design. Treat it as a planning guide: sightlines, armor and movement still decide the encounter.
