In this The Ascent Sniper Build Guide, we will show you what you need to do in order to get the Deadly Sniper Build. This sniper build is all about being the most accurate and deadly killer by securing critical hits on targets and destroying them in a few shots.
The Deadly Sniper build is all about taking your time and picking out targets from cover. This build is for players who like to keep things in control and be methodical with their approach and attacks. While you will not be the best with health, your agility in this build will make up for it as you dodge enemies and attacks.
The Ascent Sniper Build Guide
Below we have detailed the Deadly Sniper build with the best skills, weapons, armor, and augmentation abilities.
Best Skills
The best skills for this build are Crit Hit Rate, Weapon Handling, and Evasion. Both Crit Hit Rate and Weapon Handling are self explanatory as they allow you to get accurate hits and the ability to reload and swap weapons faster.
On the other hand, Evasion is a skill that most builds should have since it’s a very important skill. But considering how vulnerable you are in the Deadly Sniper build, Evasion is an absolute must in keeping you agile and away from harm’s way.
Best Weapons and Armor
Moving on to the best weapons you can have in this build, where the first one is the EBR Enforcer. This is a special weapon that doesn’t require you to be accurate, as the bullets chose a target nearby and fly towards it.
The second weapon for this build, which should also be your secondary weapon along with the EBR, is the ABR Commander. This weapon works the same way as your primary weapon but comes with slightly less damage infliction on enemies. The major difference in both the weapons is that the EBR deals Energy damage, while the ABR deals physical damage. Having two different types of weapons allows you to target multiple types of enemies with different weaknesses.
The best armor pieces for this build are:
- F-50 Sledgehead Helmet
- Runner Coat
- Runner Trousers
Best Augmentation Abilities
The best abilities for the Deadly Sniper build should be the ones that help your Crit Hit skill, while also improving your mid-range combat. In both cases, the best abilities you can unlock are the Joyrun Dragon and the Mono Ranger.
Starting with the Joyrun Dragon, this ability lets you summon a dragon from medium range that stuns the targets by putting a stasis effect on them. Enemies in Stasis are basically stuck in one place, giving you plenty of time to single out targets and cleaning out the area in no time.
The second ability for this build is the Mono Ranger. When activated, this ability brings out small bots that come in to assist you in the fight. Mono Ranger is best used in situations when things get tricky or when there are too many targets coming for you. The ability is also significantly powerful as your cybernetics attribute with the unlocked skills makes the bots more deadly with damage.
