V10

The  is a sniper rifle available to the Vanu Sovereignty. It is unlocked through purchase with Certification Points or Daybreak Cash.

The V10 is the high capacity sniper rifle for the Vanu—that is, it has the largest magazine size and deepest ammunition pool of the bolt-action sniper rifle range. It takes longer to chamber between each shot compared to the XM98, and is a bit more cumbersome with a longer reload, but earns a higher velocity, an extra three bullets per magazine, and eight extra rounds in reserve as compared to the balanced option before it.

As with most bolt-action sniper rifles, the V10 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 V10, LA80, and  SR-7 are statistically identical.

 * 400 after 350 meters

Ribbons and Medals

History

 * October 24, 2016 Update
 * Magazine size from 5 to 8 rounds per magazine
 * Ammunition capacity from 40 to 48
 * 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.
