Best Sniper Build in Once Human

Sniper Build Basic Info

The Sniper Build, known as The Bull's Eye Build, revolves around the Bull's Eye effect, which highlights marked targets, outlines them, and increases their vulnerability by +8% for 12 seconds. This build maximizes the damage output from weakspot hits, ensuring that each shot counts.

The AWS.338 - Bullseye sniper rifle, along with the Agent armor set, is modded to amplify enemy vulnerability and weakspot damage. Complementing this, the secondary weapon and melee options provide versatility, making this build lethal in long-range combat.

Best Weapons for Sniper Build

Primary Weapon: AWS.338 - Bullseye or AWS.338 Bingo

The AWS.338 - Bullseye is the star of Sniper Build, thanks to its knack for consistently landing The Bull's Eye effect. With a 70% chance to trigger this on weakspot hits, it marks enemies with vulnerability +8% for 12 seconds, making them easy targets for precise shots.

The weapon doesn’t stop there—it also boosts weakspot damage by +15% for 10 seconds with each hit, stacking up to three times. Plus, the first hit after switching weapons always activates The Bull's Eye. Defeating enemies with weakspot hits further ramps up the damage with a +15% attack boost for 20 seconds. It’s a bullseye in every sense, turning enemies into sitting ducks!

Secondary Weapon: SOCR - Last Valor or SOCR - Outsider

SOCR - The Last Valor rains damage with its Shrapnel effect, giving you a 4% chance to spread 50% Attack damage to random unhit parts and boosting Crit DMG by 30%.

Melee: Stun Baton

The Stun Baton is a great choice for this build. It has a 33% chance with light strikes to inflict Power Surge, dealing 50% Psi Intensity Status DMG and reducing enemy accuracy by 40% for 6 seconds. Heavy hits on Power Surge targets send an extra jolt of 50% Power Surge DMG to nearby enemies, making it a zapping good choice for crowd control and adding electric flair to your melee game.
