While using sniper rifles, it is a good idea to obtain additionally a weapon for short and medium distance combat.

Hitting the enemy into the legs or torso is probably not going to kill him, but in the majority of cases, hitting the head is.

If you spot an enemy and you carry a sniper rifle, it is better to take a good aim before you fire.

Silencers, on the other hand, are not that important here, because they doo not suppress the weapon as much as they do in the case of assault rifles or handguns and submachine guns. You can conduct fire without a scope, but precise optics increase effectiveness.

These weapons become even more effective after you have attached a decent scope (x4, x8 or x15).

This is why it is better to switch to any other weapon, while fighting in such conditions - handgun, SMG or even a melee weapon are much better. In the majority of cases, you will only have one shot to kill the opponent. Killing any opponent is nothing short of luck (unless he only has several HP points or you hit the head).

Weapons of this type are completely useless over short distance, in urbanized areas and indoors.

At the same time, small clip and low rate of fire will not be that problematic. If it works like a real suppressor then no, a suppressor channels the air force from the front of the bullet to behind it and actually increases speed of the bullet, a bit like how a turbo on a car takes the exhaust and forces the air.

Sniper rifles are perfect for both medium and long distances - high damage dealt and accuracy will allow you to eliminate the enemy with ease.

There are several things to remember, while using this type of weaponry: Depending on armor used and body part shot, the damage will vary - more details in Reducing damage chapter.

This attachment is tied with the Extended QuickDraw for DMR and SR attachment for being the heaviest items in the game - taking up 23 units of inventory space.The damage presented in the table is for a character who got shot at an unprotected torso.

The suppressor increases the length of the weapon, meaning that obstacles further away than usual will prevent the player from entering iron sights and can present an issue in confined spaces. It also has an unmentioned effect of a slight reduction in weapon deviation.

These attributes mesh very well with the long range precision of DMRs and sniper rifles, allowing a shooter to potentially take out victims without them even being aware of the location of the shooter. Suppressors are attached to the muzzle of a gun and reduce muzzle report by packing baffles into a metal tube, causing expanding gas to be directed into the baffles, allowing more time for the gases to cool down, thus reducing the volume of a gunshot and making it much harder to pinpoint where the shot was fired from.Īn extremely rare and highly prized attachment, besides completely eliminating muzzle flash, the suppressor more importantly reduces the distance at which gunshots can be heard and alters the muzzle report making it significantly more difficult to locate the shooter. The Suppressor for DMR and SR is a muzzle type attachment in BATTLEGROUNDS.
