An Infantry has a wide arsenal of weapons available, but which weapons are best used for longer ranges? Read more on Five Tips for Long-Range Infantry.
1: Bolt-Action – slow but deadly
The Bolt-Action Rifles (K98K, M1903 & Mosin-Nagant) provide the most damage and the largest range. They do have a slow rate of fire but with the right modifications it is able to one-shot any infantry on the field who doesn’t wear the heavy set combat badge.
2: Scope the distance
Having trouble seeing that well on long distances? The Semi-Automatic and Bolt-Action rifles allow a scope to be equipped. This will surely enhance your vision so you can engage your opponents more easily at longer distances.
3: Choose the right modifications
With the right modifications the Bolt-Action rifle can have a slightly higher rate of fire and do a lot more damage. For the Bolt-Action rifle it’s best to equip 5 modifications:
- Ammunition: The bullets with the highest possible damage
- Sights: Either the scope or the precision modification
- Trigger: A trigger for a little extra rate of fire
- Internal: The Heavy Bolt for a little extra damage
- Barrel: The Scout II Barrel with damage
This will allow your bolt-action rifle to do a lot of damage and potentially one-shot your opponents when you hit them in the chest.
4: Be prepared for close range defense
The Bolt-Action rifle is great at long range, but not as powerful at close ranges due to the slow rate of fire. With the right pouch sizes set you can equip a SMG or other types of good close range weapons with it. So you can switch between the two weapons depending on the situation.
5: Consider a career as a recon
The Recon career is the career with the most abilities on long range. Having a recon soldier means you can have better scopes and stronger modifications for your Bolt-Action rifle.
