Sniper weapons include the Liberator Penetrator with medium armor penetration, the Railgun featuring safe and unsafe charging modes, and the bolt-action Anti-Materiel Rifle with an adjustable zoom scope.
The Diligence marksman rifle carries a 20-round magazine with light armor penetration, whereas the Diligence Counter-Sniper inflicts 128 damage but suffers deflections against armored targets.
