Spoiler

It's a good rifle

 

[sekushiiandee]

its one of the better sniper rifles out there if modded correctly


but i rarely use snipers so it was just fodder for me personally

It's beautiful, it's very strong and it's difficult to use.

I'm generally not a fan of sniper rifles, but the Rubico is enjoyable.  It takes some time to get used to the scale of the zoom - you can zoom it in twice and IIRC get better crits.

Don't remember my build off the top of my head, but I can see about snagging a screenie later tonight.

It hits like a Hyekka truck when scoring a critical headshot, but the reload of 3.0 seconds is sluggish for 5 shots. It also has a really short combo counter build up and duration.

I'd recommend using it with duration built Toxin Elemental Ward Chroma or Primed Fast Hands.

Welp, I have over 7,500 kills with it.

Here's my build - I never updated it to include the Shadow Debt Mods; they'd probably be a good choice if you're looking to swap one of those out.

In terms of how it performs, it's really fun. The reload time is annoyingly long, and Primed Fast Hands is really necessary, in my opinion. It hits ridiculously hard though - it's usually my weapon of choice if I'm doing a Sortie or something else with level 100 enemies. It has no trouble taking them down.

super fun gun, here's some info on it:

The reload speed as well as the vague scope throws me off

For me, I think Rubico is a versatile & solid Sniper Rifle.

But the long reload time may hinder your gameplay, as well as the combo timer.

So, Primed Fast Hand is a must-put in the build IMO.

And my build.
