— Item Description |
The Unique Alpine TPG-1 Pro is an NX-Standard Sniper Rifle that was introduced with the 9-22-10 Patch.
Overview[]
The TPG-1 Pro is a devastating gun in almost any situation. The camouflaged skin lets it blend in very well with desert and mountainous maps (i.e Junk Flea, Kill Creek, Pump Jack), especially when coupled with the Desert Camo uniform. Compared to the base TPG-1, it features a slight boost in portability. The TPG-1 Pro's scope features a higher magnification like the L115A2/3. The TPG-1 Pro suffers higher damage dropoff than most other snipers. The portability of 43 is only 2 shy of the DSR-1 Subsonic's 45. The rate of fire is 16, one point higher than the M24. The 98 accuracy rating is only 2 shy of perfect and is already 1 higher than the DSR-1 Subsonic. Coupled with the high magnification scope, the result is a 5 point recoil decrease from the Dragunov SVD, and 7 above the DSR-1 Subsonic. Even though the TPG-1 Pro appears statistically better than the DSR-1 Subsonic, the TPG series has greater damage dropoff at longer ranges. At some points, it will be a very "tankable" one shot kill to legs and possibly even to the chest on heavy vesters when sniping across Kill Creek.
Compared to another popular sniper rifle, the DSR-1 Subsonic, the TPG-1 Pro has 1 point higher accuracy, a higher magnification scope, and a desert camo paint job. Like the DSR-1 Subsonic, it has one extra magazine for a total of 25 rounds, compared to the 20 afforded most other snipers. In comparison, the DSR-1 Subsonic has a sleek "stealth" black cover, an integrated suppressor and the same scope as the L96 series, which some players prefer over the scope on the TPG-1 Pro.
