Inferno is the best sniper rifle in the game followed by Vanquisher, Black Widow, Raptor then somewhere in there Valiant, Lanat and Isharay...
The problem is most people only have it at 1 if they even have it.

The problem is most people only have it at 1 if they even have it. Inferno is the same as the Valiant really and it's objectively not the best as it cannot one shot things. Vanq can one shot any non-heavy unit(zerker/hydra) on an infiltrator while still maintaining a decent size mag.

Can only answer based on what I have unlocked, so my answer is pretty useless. Would just post pancake-head-rabbit, but some people are offended by pictures.

Your argument is just invalid and the inferno shits on the valiant.

Wait, so on a level from "suck" to "BioWare quality control", how terribad is my Viper X? It's my only sniper rifle so far Here are some of my dps numbers calculations from yesterday for my sniper rifles (with reload times included - though I am not sure how accurate my reload time numbers are): Lanat II 310 Widow X 327 Viper X 343 Ishray X 364 Shadow VII 414 Black Widow I 447 Valiant II 701 Vanquisher X 736 Inferno I 831 Indra VIII 920 Raptor X 996 (I am leaving out my Incisor since I think it might have something like half the rated DPS because of how burst fire works. Also, I am not sure how armor works but supposedly high damage low rate of fire weapons are supposed to have an advantage against armor.)

on Xbone, when you join in any gold match, generally all 3 other randoms plays with the Vanquisher and they will kick you out if you don't camp with them. Looks like the only legit way to play for 3/4 of Xbox community with camping with Vanquisher

Oh damn, and here I was, excited about my Isharay II :poker: It is actually a really decent weapon, for some people. DPS can be really misleading because the pace of battle matters. When you are waiting, your dps does not matter and reloading is not anything to worry about, for example. If you have a cover using character - if shield recovery matters, for example, then you need to find a weapon which sort of matches how you play. Another issue is that when you are getting overrun your single target DPS becomes meaningless for a different reason. There, your DPS gets multiplied by how many enemies you can hit (assuming you can stay alive which is another important priority, along with trying to figure out how to support and/or be supported by your group - different characters have such different styles of play that this can often be frustratingly non-obvious). Finally, note that from level I to level X, a weapon's damage only increases like 15%. That matters, but it's not a completely overwhelming issue. (Also its weight gets reduced by half and its max ammo gets increased by 30%. That max ammo thing will actually slightly increase the DPS of self-reloading weapons because they can go longer without having to stop, but it's another "only a slight advantage" thing.)

Looks like the only legit way to play for 3/4 of Xbox community with camping with Vanquisher Actually on xbox, I have noticed quite a few players using weapons other than the vanquisher. Yes, there are still going to be vanquishers, but most lobbies I come across only have 1-2 vanquisher users on average. Also I have rarely seen kicking except when it's a low apex player with weak weapons. I like the Raptor for the large magazine, but I think it may struggle in Gold (which I am no playing until I get gud) Raptor at all ranks does fine on Gold. Higher ranks of course are obviously better. Many of my characters have Raptor equipped for Gold. The scoped view takes a while to get used to though.

I don´t want to be judged, I don´t want to be like every other and their mother, using the same weapon. I wanna be special hipster snowflake so I am slavering through silver with Isharay that can´t properly kill anything beoynd Breacher, while my friends are reviving after every invisible dog.

Raptor is arguably the best assault rifle in the game, but the question was sniper rifles.

The objectively correct answer is Vanquisher.. but the Inferno is way more fun. If you can make every shot count.. Lanat is really good too. Wait...people actually aim???
