| |
| '''Wire Rifles''' are [[Sniper Rifle]]s used by the [[Fallen]] to flush out and suppress enemy forces.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==Gameplay==
| | '''Wire Rifles''' are used by [[Fallen]] [[Vandal]]s to flush out and suppress enemy forces. |
| The Wire Rifle fires a high-velocity [[Arc]] bolt that punches through [[Guardian]] shields at long range, so using cover is advised. The weapon must charge for a second before firing, causing it to emit a recognizable sound and blue flash, which an attentive player can use to predict the attack and dodge it. The weapon is found almost exclusively in the hands of [[Vandal]]s or mounted on the chassis of [[Tracer Shank]]s, though it is also the preferred weapon of some large [[Captain]]s, like the [[Technocrat's Assistant]]s.
| |
|
| |
|
| Some [[Heavy Shank]]s, like [[S.A.B.E.R.-2]], can mount a [[Solar]] variant of this weapon.
| | ==Grimoire Description== |
| | ''The Wire Rifle utilizes shock cores to charge thin wires of an exotic metal, converting them into Arc-infused molten shards with an extraordinary muzzle velocity.''<ref>'''Destiny Tracker''' - ''[http://db.destinytracker.com/grimoire/enemies/fallen-arsenal Fallen Arsenal]''</ref> |

| |
|
| [[Taken Vandal]]s with Wire Rifles have their damage type changed to Solar, and can fire the weapon faster, though with lower precision.
| | ==Gameplay== |
| | | This weapon is utilized by Vandals with particularly good aim. It fires a high-velocity Arc bolt that punches through [[Guardian]] shields at long range, so using cover is advised. |
| The [[SIVA]] infused variant used by [[Splicer Vandal]]s fires in three-round Solar bursts with an erratic trajectory, making it harder to track the shooter.
| |
| | |
| ==Trivia== | |
| *Guardians can use a wieldable version of the Wire Rifle, called the [[Queenbreakers' Bow]] [[Fusion Rifle]]/[[Linear Fusion Rifle]].
| |
| *The Wire Rifle is seemingly compatible with an unspecified caliber of ammunition produced by [[Tex Mechanica]]. Evidence (or more likely an oversight by a developer) of this is located in the [[Tangled Shore]], where one such rifle lays in a vantage point within a foundry, overlooking [[Sorik's Cut]].
