@lordalmighty1 It's also supposed to be op. The other supply drop weapons are op too.
yeah I know its meant to be powerful, but even with a gold helmets -25% damage its still a 1 shot kill weapon and I think that's a problem tbh.
- @lordalmighty1 eh, the Mastiff can also be 1-shot kill, and the devotion has insane rof.
- @lordalmighty1 They intend it to be a 1 (headshot) kill sniper, they could buff it so it does 1000 headshot damage, it doesn't matter what the damage count is.

Read the patch notes.....the Kraber was designed from the beginning to be a 1 shot 1 kill weapon with a headshot.
What messed things up were the fortified and separate Gibby buffs.....which they just addressed with the Kraber buff....
Even though I just got knocked with full purple shield and full health in one kraber shot, I like that a sniper rifle acts like a sniper rifle: you should get a kill with a headshot on any sniper rifle. I don’t buy the idea a helmet blocked enough damage.
- @Professor_Doggy That seems to be impossible in this game.
The problem of sniper rifles is not the damage they give, but the map design is not suitable and the mechanic of damage falloff.
Rarely you can see a place that is ONLY ABLE for snipers to shoot, there are just so many buildings and the map is really small if you really want to snipe. Usually, a wingman or ARs is enough to fight in those "long" range battles.
The another problem is the damage falloff system. At this moment, only charge rifle and havoc beam mode have real damage falloff, with other guns only have no headshot punishment (wingman doesn't have this either, so you can snipe with wingman, if you are very good of using this gun). I think it is fine to add the REAL damage falloff system to all of the guns in order to buff sniper rifles, but it may be a little complicated for it to work as it changes all the guns (so that you cannot deal a full 110 damage with PK when shooting a far target).
