The Open Beta version of the Sea Eagle
Sniper Rifle is the 4th weapon in MicroVolts. Sniper Rifle, commonly refered to as the "Sniper", fires a single bullet with extremely high reload times. It is usually used in long range, as the amount of time it takes to aim with this weapon puts its user in danger if used in combat. However, it is possible to quick scope with the sniper to use it in combat without putting its user in much harm. This weapon is capable of killing enemies with a single headshot. Firing without scoping greatly reduces the damage compared to firing while scoping.

Tips and Tricks[]
Zooming In[]
Right-clicking while having a Sniper Rifle active enables the user to switch to scope view. It is easier to see faraway targets while being zoomed in, though players may have some trouble aiming as mouse velocity is decreased greatly.
Quick Scoping[]
A method of aiming that improves the use of the Sniper Rifle in close to mid-range, where most players will opt to use other weapons better suited for that range. Instead of shooting without zoom, aim at your target, then zoom in, adjust your aim, then fire while being zoomed in. Due to the gaming mechanics of Microvolts zooming in does decrease the level of accuracy for the first few seconds due to the reticle growing bigger which makes it less effective.
