Description

A sniper rifle of Asari origin. Inspired by the weapons of Mass Effect 3.

Lore Description: "Due to the recent advancements of kinetic barrier technology and bio-amps, sniper rifles have been decreasing in utility against shielded opponents. Rather than throw away outdated bio-amps, the Asari re-purposed them into powerful mass effect engines within their prototype Oracle Sniper Rifle. This sniper rifle, upon pulling the trigger, creates a corridor of massless space between the target and the weapon, guided by a violent, forward thrusting mass effect field that damages enemies. During this time is when a bullet is incased within the field, but not propelled, so as to allow the biotic strike to disrupt shields. After a short delay, the bullet is propelled to the target location. If an enemy moves after the biotic strike, the mass effect corridor can be guided by the Oracle's barrel/line of sight before the bullet projects, allowing you to essentially '2-shot' your target."
