A sniper rifle of a super-soldier. You will need to rack a slide a lot, but an 8x zoom and a thermal visor that allow you to see enemies through walls will make you forget about this disadvantage.

—Weapon's description in Gallery

The Overseer is a Sniper weapon introduced in the 15.9.0 update. It is part of the Super Soldier Event Set that includes: Storm, Overseer, and Instigator.

Description[]

It is a grey, special forces sniper rifle that shoots regular bullets. It has a decent fire rate for a sniper, its X-RayVision attribute is useful to see enemies though walls. It deals high damage and its ammo capacity makes it one of the best yet unique snipers in the game.

Appearance[]

It is a bolt-action sniper rifle with blue accents. It features a collapsible stock, a black pistol grip, magazine, a blue receiver, a long black barrel, and a blue muzzle brake with a red iron sight integrated. Its attachments consists of a 8x Scoped, a black bolt a bi-pod, a rail-mounted flashlight and a leather sling.

Performance[]

This sniper shoots regular bullets with instant bullet travel time. It also possesses a 8x Scoped that allows fighting in longer ranges. Moreover, it also has an X-RayVision attribute, which allows seeing all players that are behind walls.

When reloading, the magazine from the bottom of the weapon is taken out and is replaced by another.

It has both Input and Output Delay, meaning that it gives delay to some weapons that are associated with Three Category Spam like the Thunderer and the Reflector, while also receiving a delay if those weapons were shot, then quickly switched to this weapon.

Strategy[]

Tips[]

  • Use this in Team Strike, as you can use it to find the last hiding player in the large map.
  • Use this weapon at long distances to maximize the scope's usefulness.
  • Be sure to aim for the head to maximize the Efficiency per shot and conserve ammunition.
    • When against an unarmored opponent, aim for the center of mass instead. They will be downed in a single body shot, and aiming for the center of mass can make aiming easier.
  • Take the time to aim first if locked in a sniper duel.
  • In Team Fight, pick off key targets to prevent enemies from getting fast easy kills.
  • As always, don't stand still while shooting.
    • Keep moving while sniping, since being stationary will make you an easier target.
  • It is a low/medium mobility weapon, so use any mobile guns to run away or a heavy to Rocket Jump.
  • Try to switch to a area damaging weapon after this so your target will get killed immediately.
  • This weapon can also be used for Three Category Spam, although it does have a delay when switching with some weapons.

Counters[]

  • Get in close with a weapon with lots of damage. However, if you approach head-on, experienced players can kill you without using the scope. Ambush the user or attack from behind for the best results.
  • A fast-firing weapon with a scope will make the most of the weapon's slow firing speed.
  • Area damage or fast firing weapons can disorient the users' aim and make quick work of them.
  • Don't try to hide, because the player will be able to detect you with the X-Ray vision. Moreover, even if you hide, try running and strafing constantly.
  • Jump around to ensure that he/she will waste his ammo or time in an effort to fire at you.
  • Experienced users can easily no-scope with this weapon, so strafing regardless of the range is recommended in that case.
