A mercenary sharpshooter employed by various Terran factions including the Siestan security force, Snipers have a surprisingly long range and some RES due to their military-grade equipment, in addition to firing tranquilizer/paralyzing bolts every three attacks (indicated by their crossbow and its bolt glowing red after the second attack), which stuns the victim for 5 seconds; silencing the Sniper will prevent them from firing the stunning bolt and also freezes the attack count.
While not particularly dangerous on their own, Snipers can be a great hassle when paired with other enemies, as their stunning bolts can (and will) cripple the defensive line at the worst moment possible. It is recommended to either intercept Snipers before they can get into range of friendlies or use sacrificial units to draw their fire.
