* In Warzone, the SRS99-S5 AM is a powerful tool. With the long sight lines on each [[Warzone]] map, a properly-placed sniper can obtain some impressive kill streaks and help their team immensely. The three variants of the weapon (End of the Line, which has reduced recoil at the cost of slightly lower damage, Arrow of Time, which has two extra rounds and no descope with higher recoil, and the Mythic Nornfang, which comes with a built-in damage boost and high-explosive ammunition that is capable of one-shotting any Spartan anywhere on the body as long as they don't have an [[Overshield]] or Enhanced Shield armor mod), increase its lethality even farther. While it may be tempting to do so, it is inadvisable to use it against bosses; their health pools are simply too large for it to be worth it. Instead, focus on the enemies attempting to take out the boss; a sniper with a good eye and a full weapon can turn the tide of a Legendary fight in their teams favor. | * In Warzone, the SRS99-S5 AM is a powerful tool.

* The Sniper is a power weapon on several maps, and controlling it is an essential part of any winning strategy. On many of the larger, more open maps (Viking and Basin for example), a good Sniper can decimate entire enemy teams and shut down objective runs with ease. | * The Sniper is a power weapon on several maps, and controlling it is an essential part of any winning strategy.
