The Sharpshooter is the long range specialist of the team, focused on taking down its targets by landing accurate lethal shots with high-caliber weapons and projectiles.

General Information

Being a sniper by nature, the Sharpshooter mostly remains stationary while concentrating on long range engagements of lone big targets like Scrakes and Fleshpounds. As a support-type unit, they are somewhat vulnerable in close range combat and hence have to rely on their teammates quite often.

Their skill choices offer them a tradeoff between weapon power and mobility.

Actual Stats

Perk Notes

  • Damage modification (passive + skills): Passive damage bonus, Sniper, Stability, Rack 'em Up and DeadEye skills affects damage of all on-perk weapons (including Knife) or on-perk damage types. Passive headshot damage bonus increases incoming damage by listed value which is being applied on both - actual health and head health. Damage ROUNDED UP.
  • Passive (Recoil): Current recoil modifier of the weapon gets lowered by up to 25%. Recoil itself depends on the player stance. Unlike Gunslinger's counterpart, Sharpshooter's passive recoil bonus works with all weapons, even off-perk.
  • Skill (Assassin) / Skill (Ranger): Each time player scores a headshot (not necessary lethal) with on-perk weapons there is additional 5% chance for ZED Time to appear.
  • Skill (DeadEye): Skill works only with on-perk weapons. Recoil reduction is multiplicative with the passive bonus: Recoil Mod = 1x0.75x0.9 = 0.675.
  • Skill (Marksman): Skill decreases refire time of the weapon by 25% which effectively increases rate of fire by 33.3%.
  • Skill (Rack 'em Up): Skill becomes active with the first ever shot in the head. Each time player scores a headshot skill takes 10% of the current weapon's damage, multiplies it by amount of scored headshots and adds it to the base weapon damage. Every 2 seconds headshot combo meter goes down by 1, each headshot during this time increases the meter by 1 and resets 2 seconds timer.
  • Skill (Stability): Skill decreases time that it takes to play reload animation by 20% making reload speed 1/0.8 = 25% faster.

Strategy

You are not meant to fight all the ZEDs alone. As a "big ZED killer" you should stay at the middle of your team, preferably so you can have an overview on multiple paths and support your team by taking down lone tough targets like Sirens, Husks, Scrakes and Fleshpounds. It is strongly advised for you to not be a "lone wolf".

Aim for the head - that's what all snipers do! Having slow firing weapons with limited ammunition leaves you no room for mistakes. Good Sharpshooters always know where to aim and when to shoot. However, don't forget that with a proper skill setup, your Winchester 1894 will be a bit more forgiving as it would let you to one-shot-kill any basic ZED like Clots, Crawlers and Stalkers even on body shots.

Having a Crossbow in your arsenal is a wise choice if you plan to conserve the Freeze Grenades for the Fleshpounds. Even without Ballistic Shock, it still can stun a Scrake on headshot.

A Rail Gun setup only leaves you 5 spare blocks of weight. To improve your self-defense, try out the boomstick and a medic pistol. The boomstick will help you against a hordes of ZEDs, while the pistol can be used for taking off heads of the small ZEDs.

The Freeze Grenades are very helpful when you are fighting big ZEDs, as its explosion stops their movement and leaves them exposed to headshots. However, keep in mind that freezing an enraged Fleshpound is almost impossible.

Trivia

  • According to the character's favourite weapon lines, Reverend Alberts and Anton Strasser are both the Sharpshooters of the team. Other characters enjoy using the various Sharpshooter weapons as well, though only DJ Scully and Rae Higgins prefer the Rail Gun.
