Longsword 202 ERASER



The Longsword 202 ERASER (Extreme Range Sniper Rifle), also called SS - AP5 (Sniper System - Anti Personnel 5 rounds) is a weapon in Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

Background
The Longsword 202 ERASER is a modern semi-automatic sniper rifle developed by Steiner Bisley.

Characteristics
This rifle uses a special side loading system. The 3 round magazine is inserted in the rifle by a left door and it uses Synergie long range match grade bullets. The same bullets are also used in the Longsword Whisperhead SERSR. Because of its large size (8x2), the rifle may not be oriented vertically in inventory.


 * It sells for 1500 Credits.


 * It uses 8 x 2 (16) slots of inventory space.

Mods
This weapon cannot be silenced.

Warning: If a laser sight is fitted to this weapon, the scope will no longer be accurate. With no laser sight, the crosshairs reflect where the bullet will land. As soon as a laser sight is attached, the crosshairs will reflect a position 3-4 inches above where the bullet will land. However, since the laser sight does not show in the scope, the weapons is far less accurate when scoped.

Locations

 * One is located in the vents on the roof of the abandoned gas station in Detroit.
 * The roof can be accessed via the window of a nearby apartment building. The apartment is itself accessible via a ladder behind a billboard; entry requires either a difficult hack or a keycode hidden in the bushes in front of Sarif Industries.
 * Another option is stacking barrels - three are required - to get on a large refuse container behind the station and onto the roof.

Behind the scenes

 * The side loading magazine system is also used by the Lambert carbine in Battlefield 2142.
 * This sniper rifle appears to be based on a sniper version of the Seburo assaut rifle used in Ghost in the Shell.
 * The trigger and pistol grip share resemblances with the Zenith pistol, also manufactured by Steiner Bisley.
