Weapon Modification (Scope)

Weapon Modification (Scope) is a weapon modification in Deus Ex that adds a scope to a compatible weapon.

Gameplay
Attaching a scope modification to a compatible weapon enables scope mode for the weapon, allowing for greater ease of use against distant targets. Weapons have perfect accuracy when fired in scope mode. However, there will be some amount of scope sway, depending on the accuracy rating of the weapon. An accuracy rating of 100% will eliminate all scope sway.

Attaching a scope to a weapon will cause the weapon to be incapable of having perfect accuracy when firing outside of scope mode, even if the weapon has a laser modification installed, and even if a 100% accuracy rating has been obtained via the corresponding weapon skill or accuracy modifications. Therefore, attaching a scope reduces the effectiveness of the weapon in close range combat to some extent.

The sniper rifle comes with a scope already installed. Unlike weapons modified with a scope modification, the sniper rifle will have perfect accuracy outside of scope mode when a 100% accuracy rating has been attained.
