Location of a sniper rifle

[ChequeMate]

Anyone knows where I can find a sniper rifle, even a white one. Mortars are causing a lot of trouble in base digs and usually beyond the range of my assault rifle.

do Hard or normal coop mission But you most likly get one from hard missions

[Demonsunder]

Co-op is the only place I have seen them drop (normal/hard) but you can handle morters in other ways, they have fixed spawn location so you can plant C4 (availiable from SP game) or use baloontrap's to snare them.

alternatly some practice with grenades and you can throw onto thier spawn with an overhanded throw (even the high one on the piece of motherbase)

While the sniper is nice, I find its not worth replacing a bow/spear for.

There's a chance you can get Bambetov (legendary) if you defeat a side boss.
Playing coop on hard can drop you Bambetov too.
I managed to find a M2000-D in a container side op.

As for OP. Here's an alternative method. You can place gun emplacements to take out Mortars.

I have tried but the gattling attack of the mortars does knockback and kicks you out of the gun emplacement.

On every map mortars have their own exclusive spawn, you can throw a grenade, or drop claymores/C4 in advance.

snipers are blue and up.
you wont find a recipe for them tho.

I got a purple dragunov drop from the huge no-armed monster boss off the afghan map, I think those drops are randomized tho. I'd trade it to ya for something if that were a thing, I never use it. Mortars pezz me off, I'll go beat em down cqc if it costs me the whole dig, anger issues....

If you are using the iron sights on the assault rifle and tap the trigger you should be able to take mortars out from quite a long range. Also try crouching or lying prone (not sure it matters for ADS, but it definitely matters for third person shooting).

You wont believe this guys just now I got that purple bambetov from beating Big Mouth. Guess someone have been hearing my prayers.

What level do the "hard" missions become available?

Yeah it matters, going prone for guns drastically reduces sway.

when you beat the game. You should be Survivor lvl40 and subclass lvl5 before you think of attempting Hard as it is HARD.

Yeah, thanks. I'm still trying to get past the coop mission with the trackers that jump over the boat. I think it's the mine? They always seem to get in behind me and start whacking on the digger.

I got a blue sniper rifle from a random container in singleplayer

Edit: Keep in mind that the sniper rifle uses the main weapone slot on your back means you can't take a spear or a bow with you
