Snipers are members of Eden's Gate who are armed with AR-CL sniper rifles and can switch to SMG-11 for close range combat. They prefer to guard rooftops and other high places. They are much more perceptive than other enemies and very accurate, rarely missing a shot. They only open fire when their red laser light reached the target, so remember always avoiding their red laser light in order to survive.
Unlike other snipers in previous games whose red laser light are always turned on, Eden's Gate snipers do turn off their laser and only turn on during combat. Even without laser, they still can be recognized from long distances by their red band and red cap however.
