[YeezyGT's S16] [MW: Range/Handling] "The community's favourite 90RPM. Typically you'll want Snapshot on all Snipers that roll with it, though if you really spec into Handling, you could (inadvisably) forgo it in favour of Opening Shot in Column 4. No Distractions is fantastic for duelling, Moving Target is great for getting extra Aim Assist, and if you're someone who's chaining kills, Killing Wind will help hit successive shots (range buff = more AA at a distance)."

Inspired by DMB Player Versus Enemies Podcast 14. PvE backup roll for general content. The Alacrity trait is surprisingly useful for solo Lost Sectors. You can get seven in the mag with Appended Mag and a Backup Mag mod, but unfortunately, Eye of Sol lacks competitive traits for boss DPS. Recommended MW: Handling or Reload Speed, with a Backup Mag mod.

Inspired by DMB Podcast 262 conversation with @ItzShadow. PvP first-choice S-Tier roll for duelling. Decent across-the-board stats and a mid-strength zoom, and both origin traits can be useful for 3s and 6s. Look for range with barrel and mag, without damaging other stats. Snapshot Sights is still useful to be first to ADS, and Opening Shot maximises range and boosts aim assist when active. Recommended MW: Range, with a Targeting Adjuster mod if you're more passive or Quick Access Sling mod if you're more aggressive.

Decent across-the-board stats and a mid-strength zoom, and both origin traits can be useful for 3s and 6s. Look for range with barrel and mag, without damaging other stats. Firmly Planted improves utility hugely if you can adapt to crouching or sliding into ADS and Snapshot Sights is still useful to be first to ADS. Recommended MW: Range, with a Targeting Adjuster mod if you're more passive or Quick Access Sling mod if you're more aggressive.

Decent across-the-board stats and a mid-strength zoom, and both origin traits can be useful for 3s and 6s. Look for range with barrel and mag, without damaging other stats. For controlling a lane, No Distractions helps you shoot through primary weapon flinch after a second of ADS, while Opening Shot pretty much maxes range and boosts aim assist. Recommended MW: Range, with a Targeting Adjuster mod.
