  • It takes 0.25 seconds to scope in and o.15 seconds to scope out.

Tips:
  • When you shoot with your scope on, it immediately hits your target; otherwise, when you shoot with no scope on, then it will take time to hit your target.

  • Your scope on shots will leave a mark, and without scope shots do not, so your enemy can see it, which is bad.

  • When you use scope, your movement will be 65% slower and narrow your vision than without scope, and it is easy for your enemy to kill you.

  • You can use the quick scope method to prevent this. Make sure to practice it.

  • This weapon can not deal more damage with headshots, so it is better for you to aim at your target and fire.

  • When scope mode is on, always listen to your surroundings because your enemies might be near you and trying to kill you, so be careful.

Abilities:

Sleep Dart:
  • Fire a dart that puts enemies to sleep.

  • It puts your enemies to sleep for 5 seconds and has 15 seconds to cool down.

  • Do some practice shooting sleep darts; it can be missed.

  • You can hit tanks with ease because of their massive size.

  • You can also use it to knock out the flying enemies, so they fall off the map.

Gameplay:

She served in the military for several years fighting against Talon, a terrorist organization and one of the main antagonistic factions in Overwatch. Once she was on the mission, she was ordered to kill the enemy’s sniper but hesitated, so hesitation made her pay and got shot in her eyes and got poorly wounded. The world thought she was dead, but she survived and kept it as a secret from everyone and got a new eye, a robotic eye that can helps her to see her target 6x more efficiently, but she always wears an Eyepatch to be remembered what she was before.
