[@Sealbinder]

I am a massive fan of the Ashura but a lot of that is due to look. The reload while not ideal in heavy combat actually sells it to me. The round you load is massive which makes it feel more powerful then it might actually be and the classic bolt action operation on a super hi-tech weapon is just appealing. Obviously this is style over substance, but style still has some value.

[@eldibs]

​@@Slyzor1 It also allows you to jump over larger horizontal gaps. Combine it with a well-timed double jump and you can get moving fast enough to outrun a car in many situations.

[@Kiljaedenas]

The whole idea of that bullpup barret prototype was that the gun would've been mainly used against low flying helicopters. Having about the same weight balance and ergonomics as a rocket launcher it would've been a lot easier and more comfortable to aim it at high angles.

I just enjoy slapping a Pax mod on a Grad, making it a """"non-lethal"""" anti-material rifle that fires at least a .50-cal-sized projectile, with a bang that can be heard from a mile away and, even if a headshot would somehow leave a gonk at the end of the barrel alive, they'll probably walk away with a missing jaw, a faceful of crushed cyberwares and a killing headache. If I could name my weapon I'd call it "Irony". Too bad they removed the cyberware that turns every gun non-lethal. Playing a non-lethal stealth-sniper with Overwatch was too OP....

[@lazycorvid7826]

I've never got around to doing a dedicated sniper build as of yet so my favorite has been Breakthrough. It's a solid sniper rifle that you can get early on without needing to jump through any hoops making it perfect for use until I've invested more into perks of a specific weapon type.

[@dredgen0268]

It just seems weird there isn’t like a true silenced sniper.

[@maskedman5657]

Overwatch

[@josephtripp1696]

Vanilla Overwatch was way scarier and could also, before its first major nerf, shoot through walls like a normal Grad (which has also since lost that ability). I don't agree with the decision, but it's clear between the targeted nerfs to the gun (and also the mission Rasetsu losing its silencer), that CDPR was afraid of a scenario where one weapon type is the designated easy mode without some sort of drawback. (Pistols debatably are said easy mode, but at least they have range limitations... kind of.)

[@Harry-fy3te]

Pistols and overwatch were so ridiculously op but they've both been nerfed hard

Something really interesting about the Rasetsu. The "scope" is actually a link to your Optical Cyberware so you can get the full zoom even under OpiCam. The fact that it isn't Silenced means it's not a top-tier option for a sneak build but it's still a neat little bit of info.

[@qrangejuice8225]

You can indeed craft the Nekomata. It was one of the first crafting specs I got, actually, though I don't recall where...

[@cptsahal5868]

you just get it from the beginning. it was the gun i crafted for leveling tech + gettin most money, before 2.0

[@rumanchu]

Prior to 2.0 you got the crafting spec for the Nekomata when you leveled up your tech/crafting (IIRC it was when you gained the ability to craft Legendaries), but I have not been able to find the crafting spec anywhere in 2.0/2.1/PL

[@sibyl9425]

I recently looted the nekomata crafting spec off of one of the suspected criminal organized activity wraith bosses in the badlands. That might be the new place to get it.

[@Faulkner108]

I love Rasetsu, especially when firing it while under Kerenzikov, the gun just wails/howls in the moment of a slo-mo shot. Need to run with Breakthrough a bit, kinda forgot about it.

[@AKSBSU]

I've got a stealth/ hacking build, so I'm pretty much using the Overwatch only because it's the only silenced sniper rifle I'm aware of. I'm surprised it's ranked so low because it obliterates most enemies with one shot, although I'm on Hard, not Very Hard for my first run through this game and the DLC. I'll have to try other rifles with a different build.

[@OliWasTaken]

Great video ! SMGs coming up next I suppose ?

[@william_brobrine8975]

Overwatch pure sentimental reasons Also I like the Millitech scope

[@janritter3116]

Overwatch is also underrated here because of the generalist build used, even though you don't need that much armor as a sniper to run Chrome Compressor. With Reboot Optics, it can down level 60 skull enemies in a single shot. Especially with the iconic hack increasing the damage bonus to +30%. Although for groups of two where one is a skull enemy I usually just use System Collapse on one and snipe the weaker one simultaneously to not trigger detection. It might not be the best weapon if you could only carry one, but with three weapon slots, it's the only weapon I always kept around since I got it in my playthrough because it can fill a certain niche almost exclusively.

[@KristoffDoe]

16:42 - Nekomata is craftable, although I have no idea where I picked up the spec for it. (Also, referring back to your other video - I got weapon mod "kneel" at least two times from various weapon vendors around the city.)

[@r1pbuck]

Pretty sure the Tier 1 Nekomata is just a 'given' at the lowest level of crafting...like ammo. Unfortunately it comes without a scope so its value is limited. I always nab one as early as I can in Act 1...there are a couple of Police Scanner jobs where you can get one, and a cyberpsycho that shows up after The Pickup has a decent Tier 2 model.

[@KristoffDoe]

@@r1pbuck My bad, I should have been more specific - I have Tier 5 crafting spec for Nekomata in my game.

[@r1pbuck]

@@KristoffDoe Ah...I get you. I have that crafting spec too, but it doesn't come until you've covered a lot of ground in Act 2. I found mine on the cliff where a journo is spying on the Arasaka estate, overlooking a Police Scanner job. I don't know if it's always there or if it's a random drop. I've usually found a high-Tier Nekomata before then in any case.

[@aoehealer6868]

​@@r1pbuckIf that's the spot I'm thinking, this may very well be the confirmed spot for the Nekomata spec. I also found my tier five spec there. Recorded the location on my Xbox.

[@hyperturbotechnomike]

I hope the scamazon weapons will be made available through regular gameplay at some point.

[@lv83bloodknight]

They appear very rarely in Dogtown Airdrops.

[@r1pbuck]

You aren't missing much. The only really worthwhile one is the Chesapeake Smart SMG, and the generic Warden SMG is hardly inferior. The only real advantage to those drops is that you get them early in the game before entering Dogtown.

[@77professional]

Not a fan of the Chrome Compressor with Snipers. A Sandy that you can juggle on and off is the way to go for quick shots that need to hit particularly for the slow to reload and slow to fire snipers. Also in practicality, you will probably be using a pistol as a backup due to the tree so it helps there too. Edit: I'm pretty sure I was able to craft Nekomatas.

[@balsabozovic4510]

Honestly, a skill issue

[@dredgen0268]

Yeah a Sandy is the best imo

[@atpyro7920]

nekomatas are a common crafting spec in weapon shops or you can just get the spec for breakthrough....

[@DemonLordSparda]

I'm not a fan of the compressor in general. Sandevistan and Cyberdecks are just too powerful. Berserk is alright, but with Chitin and Peripheral Inverse, I find it unnecessary.

[@77professional]

@@DemonLordSparda More importantly, they are more versatile. For example sneaking is near impossible without them because there is always going to be that one guy you can't get past otherwise.

Okay, thank you! I recently watched a sniper ranking video that popped up in my feed and they didn't even have Breakthrough on the list...I was loosing my mind LOL I use Breakthrough in my build so I was dumbfounded. I mean, personal preference and all is fine, but still.

[@gamblerfls]

Overwatch is excelent in very hard mode, where playing stealth helps for the most of the playthrough and leveling up. While it doesn't take out enemies with skull on their heads with one shot, it's a good finisher when combined with quickhacks.

[@zoid_on_youtube]

On some gigs that take place in smaller buildings, the Breakthrough is really funny as you can just stand across the street and kill everyone in the building through the walls

[@irksomecodger9667]

IMHO Breakthrough lost its top spot to the regular Nekomata with PL. I think with the wallpuncher mod that gives you 200% charge and the same armor piercing ability as Breakthrough and tier 5 Gaki scope that keeps the weapon at half charge minimum the regular Nekomata gets ahead of it. You can also slap another mod of your choice if you can find a version that takes 2 mods and that’s a plus too.

[@lv83bloodknight]

Good to see someone else found this lol Although Breakthrough is a lot easier to find than that scope.

[@fredtott4684]

You may be right but I doubt you use a Normal Neko for literally everything in game so I'd rather use Wallpuncher on the spare gun. But Hell, if you do ONLY use a pimped out Neko for everything, man you're fricking Nova Choom !!!

[@lv83bloodknight]

@@fredtott4684 Well, I use Pariah for stealth, Raiju for vehicle combat on that build. But yea I use Neko for all other combat occasions :)

[@lv83bloodknight]

Neko is the best one if you happen to get a T5 tech sniper scope from airdrop, it gets to stay at half charge all the time, giving it effectively pistol level charge of .75/.5 secs depend on variant. Incidentally this also allows the gun to spam 3/4 bolts in quick succession cause half charge is just outside the sweet spot and once you proc lightning storm (the one that increase charge time by 10%), you can basically tap fire bolts which is pretty crazy. I honestly wouldnt take Rasetsu over Neko in any case, not being able to charge from hipfire just feels cumbersome. Neko is already one shotting everything anyway.

[@matthewneuendorf5763]

Breaththrough is the one sniper I've been using semi-regularly. I do enjoy a good smart sniper, though, at least at sufficiently long ranges in sufficiently open areas.

[@bmo5852]

I'll say, installing microgenerator on your hands, turns all your Ashura shots into Electrical blasts

[@KindDmoN]

The nekomata is number one on my list given that you can attach the epic scope that comes with a built in battery making your nekomata be always at 50% charge, add to that the mod that allows you to charge tech weapons to 200% and you have a head shot beast that is super confortable to shoot on hip fire mode

[@HelloChief117]

I love the Rasetsu because it has hints of the same firing sounds as the Type-7 particle weapon from F.E.A.R and its magazine makes it look like you're reloading a cassette player. The biggest downside with it is that it has no regard whatsoever for civilians when it comes to its ability to bounce shots between targets, so it's less than ideal when it comes to hostage situations.

[@cinninnimonskoda2017]

[@josephtripp1696]

You kind of alluded to it, but Rasetsu's ability to stack its own ability to hit multiple targets with Bolt/Chain Lightning gets at what, imo, brings out its best qualities-- synergy with the bait+ request backup combo, as well as (via late game engineering perks), the ability to use legendary contagion and detonate it via chain lightning's burn. 20 Tech, 20 Cool, 10-15 Int (to taste-- you're not a dedicated runner, but a three-slot quickhack qeue and overclock is nice for spamming out the main three + misc control options)... the rest is negotiating between Body and Reflexes.

[@josephtripp1696]

The """smart""" ammo won't maneuver around obstacles if you're aiming directly at your target. This normally doesn't come up with mid to short range smart-guns since there's usually less between you and your target. Ashura though, yeah, you usually need to hold the barrel above or left/right of your target so it can curve around cover and hit.

[@lv83bloodknight]

I've seen Yasha's gyrojets literally bent around the target's head and miss before lol The guy was standing in the open too

What’s the track in Ashura section called?

[@nestihado]

The only snipers worth using are the iconic techs. Breakthrough for killing everyone behind walls and rasetsu for everyone on sight. Power rifles offer no advantages and smart lock on whatever and often simply miss
