The BXT1 Rifle is a sniper weapon used by the Sentinel class in Tribes: Ascend.
Operation
This rifle is a hitscan weapon; bullets have no travel time or drop.
Its scope has 2.75x and 5.66x zoom settings.
Firing while not scoped in deals a meager 10 damage. Zooming in starts charging the rifle, allowing it to hit for as much as 250 damage. It takes 4,5 seconds to fully charge the rifle. The equation for the damage output is ( x*4.92)^2 +10 for x is the time scoped, and x cannot exceed 4.5 [citation needed].
