Once Human best Sniper Rifles ranked

5) SN700

The SN700 is the lowest-performing sniper rifle in the game, but it is the easiest to obtain. If you're a brand new player, you'll acquire this weapon almost immediately after starting your journey. The gun may not seem the best based on stats, but when you take into account its reliability, you can see how valuable it is. The weapon is cheap to make, easy to repair, and available at nearly any level of play.

Although it lacks the special modifiers and power of the more advanced guns, it's still potent up to around the mid-game stage. You shouldn't have any problem letting this gun carry you through a large portion of the Once Human leveling process.

The HAMR is one of the easiest-to-obtain sniper rifles in Once Human but also one of the weaker options on this list. For newer players or those looking to expand their sniper collection, this is a great starting place. It's relatively easy to obtain, even though lower-level gamers may need to sneak past some enemies to get to it.

If you're looking to try Once Human PvP with a sniping weapon, then the HAMR will be a good low-investment option for you. It can also be used to learn how to take out PvE enemies before moving on to bosses as well.

The AWS.338 Black Panther rifle comes with a few interesting passive abilities. One of these is that the gun grants the Fortress Warfare buff once you've been aiming it for three seconds. The rifle also gains more damage (up to +30%) as you continue to aim, and gains weakspot damage (+25%) when Fortress Warfare is active. This all makes it the best sniper for those who want to stay still.

2) HAMR - Brahminy

The Brahminy has the unique Bounce passive which caues bullets to ricochet (Image via Starry Studio || Reddit@u/MarsUltor25)

The HAMR Brahminy gun is best used when facing several smaller enemies at the same time due to its unique Bounce mechanic. This causes a bullet that hits a weakspot to have a chance of ricocheting.

A bullet that bounces off this way will hit another nearby target with a chance to ricochet again, almost infinitely. This makes the gun weaker against a single large opponent, but it can clear entire groups of smaller ones with as few as two or three shots.
