NC14 Bolt Driver

The  is a sniper rifle available to the New Conglomerate. It is unlocked by default.

The NC14 Bolt Driver serves as the balanced option in the long-range sniper rifle arsenal. It can neither boast the raw damage of the EM4 Longshot or the ammo capacity of the LA80, nor does it bring the velocity of either, but instead offers a relatively fast rechamber time and a fast reload speed, giving it the least downtime of all long-range rifles.

As with most bolt-action sniper rifles, the NC14 Bolt Driver deals 210% damage on a headshot, rather than only 200%, increasing the range at which the rifle is able to kill standard infantry with one headshot.

The NC14 Bolt Driver, M77-B, and  XM98 are statistically identical.

History

 * October 24, 2016 Update
 * Reload speed from 3sec./4.6sec. to 2.8sec./4sec.
 * March 30, 2022 Update (The Arsenal Update)
 * Anti-infantry sniper rifles now use a separate resistance (type 20).
 * Being struck by a sniper rifle now has more prominent audio.
 * Dev Note: The damage values for this new resistance are equivalent to small arms. This change will allow us to do is modify the bodyshot damage output from Nanoweave, as mentioned above.
 * Most Shotguns, Sniper Rifles, and Scout Rifles now use Comfort Grips, instead of Forward Grips.
 * Dev Note: Traditional Forward Grips offered no functional benefits to slow firing semi-auto weapons, so swapping them for Comfort Grips (which reduce the equip and unequip time of a weapon,) can be interpreted as a buff in almost all cases.
