Epoch Sniping basic ranging scenario and advice Part 1

So I thought I would drop a few hints and tips on how to snipe in Epoch.

Equipment you will need.

A sniper with LRPS OR SOS scope, Rangefinder or a good sense of distance.

Right so first off, you have a static target, hes camping a military tower and hes not moving an inch.

My first piece of advice would be to load the Lynx 12.7mm APDS rounds in because you NEVER aim for the head. (APDS rounds are Armour piercing)

> Load APDS rounds

Now use your Range finder to Gauge distance. you point directly at the target and the reading comes in at 835 metres.

now you zero in your scope/ use the Page up and Page down buttons to zero in.

you now Range your scope to 800 meters. Why 800? because the scope only goes up in in 100's and you don't want to set your gun to over range. (were you aim at the target and the bullet goes over their head)

Now what to do? you hover that pretty little red dot just above the players head. as the target is 37 meters FURTHER than your zero range you need to account just a tiny bit. raise the scope just enough so that when you fire the round will hit said players body.

try this at least twice, account for any sway. better not fire than to fire and miss. them snipers make a hell of a bang.


On the second or 3rd alignment you take the shot. why the APDS rounds you ask? because them badboys will penetrate all military tower walls and defenses you are guaranteed a kill. sometimes you will get lucky and a regular round will penetrate but best be safe than sorry.


That's it you got the kill. what do you do now? sit there and wait for the next one? NO move your fat ass and get to a new firing position. Aim to move between 100 and 200 meters away from your first shot, that way you wont end up dying like a tit.

What about a good spotter called bionic lol
