The best sniper rifles in Once Human

Key conclusions

• Sniper rifles in Once Human have unique passive abilities that add depth to the weapon selection.

• Some sniper rifle blueprints are only available through Mythical Loot Crates or the Wish Machine.

• SN700 Epic Tier Sniper Rifle – Gulped Lore acts like a small rocket launcher, causing an explosion when it hits weak spots.

Once Human is a survival game where you will encounter many unexpected monsters and challenges. In these situations, it's best to arm yourself with a reliable weapon, specifically a sniper rifle, which is great at long range and usually only takes one bullet to take down enemies.

Interestingly, the key difference between sniper rifles is not in their basic characteristics, but in the features of passive weapons. These features offer unique advantages, adding more depth to the weapon selection, but making it more difficult to choose the best sniper. Fortunately, after some experimentation, you can narrow down a few clear winners that can take down your local Bigs with ease.

SN700

Rarity: Common

• How to get Blueprint: Unlock the long-range firepower memetic in the crafting memetic menu.

Being the only regular sniper rifle in Once Human, The SN700 will likely be your first weapon in this category. As you'd expect, it comes with modest stats that remain relatively decent across the board. Unfortunately, this is the only sniper in the game no passive abilitieswhich makes it hard to rank him higher than last place.

The only major advantage of the SN700 is its wide availability, as you can unlock it from the Memetics menu — such an option is not provided by any other sniper rifle. However, it's still a strong weapon in the open field with heavy damage and critical strike chance.

HAMR – Fall apart

Rarity: Rare

• How to get Blueprint: Open the mythical loot chest on the rock of GAIA.

Although the HAMR Crumble version is the best choice for beginners. it has one of the fastest firing rates of all sniper rifles. Due to its high critical strike chance, you can comfortably use it in Monoliths to destroy powerful enemies.

Of course, Crumble is overshadowed by its stronger HAMR variant, Brahminy, but the latter is much more difficult to obtainso the former serves as an excellent substitute. In addition, it's a perfect choice for Burn builds as Crumble's weapon features include setting targets on fire and dealing extra Burn damage.

SN700 – Swallowed History

Rarity: Epic

• How to get Blueprint: Available at Wish Machine for 2000 Starchrom.

Making an all-weapon sniper rifle act as a small rocket launcher seems out of the ordinary, but the SN700 – Gulped Lore makes it work. As an epic-level version of the normal SN700, this weapon, when hit in a weak spot, has an 80% chance to activate Unstable Bomberwhich causes an explosion in a radius of 1.5 meters.

Thanks to its excellent stability, hitting weak spots should be a piece of cake for Gulped Lore. It's a great pack clearing weapon, and you even have the option concentrate the effect of the explosion, reducing its effective range. Just make sure you stay out of the blast zone.

Don't forget to apply Mod for heavy explosives on Gulped Lore to make the volatile Bomber hit hard!
