Overcharged Plasma Sniper Rifle

The  is a type of Ground Weapon.

Sniper rifles have a secondary fire mode that shoots a concentrated bolt of energy at a single target, dealing high damage with a good chance to knock back. The 's knockback is 16 meters, while normal sniper rifle's knockback is 12 meters, and also has higher base damage than other sniper rifles on the secondary fire. The secondary fire does however suffer from damage variance.

Plasma ground weapons have a chance to slow the target and apply additional plasma damage.

Obtaining
The  is a scaling mission reward from the Romulan Mystery mission. It is currently unobtainable for the Klingon Defense Force and Romulan Republic.

Since this item is not unique, players can obtain it more than once via episode replay. Replaying this mission at higher levels will grant a level-appropriate Mark version of this weapon, up to and including Mk XI.

Performance
There are seven factors that can affect personal weapons. These are Modifiers, spent Player Skill Points, Personal Equipment, and Equipment Sets.

Modifiers
s do not come with modifiers suffixes. Sniper Shot's powerful knockback may be considered a built-in modifier.
