Sniper

Devastating boss executes — deals triple damage to bosses below 25% HP.

"One shot. One kill. The rest is just math."

What Changes at Level 10

When a Ranger reaches level 10 and you select Sniper, three things change permanently:

1. Stat bonuses are added to the hero's ability scores immediately and permanently.
2. Active ability is replaced with the subclass variant (Execute Shot).
3. Passive effect is unlocked and becomes active in all future runs.

Ability: Execute Shot

Permanent Stat Bonuses

Sniper grants the following ability score bonuses on top of the Ranger base scores:

• +2 Dexterity — adds to the Ranger base dexterity score
• +1 Agility — adds to the Ranger base agility score

These bonuses stack with ability score points allocated from levelling. They cannot be removed without retiring the hero.

Passive Effect

Deals ×3 damage to enemies below 25% HP.

This passive is always active during combat — no gear or skill tree investment required to trigger it.

Legacy Passive

A Sniper put through the Bloodline Forge leaves a Legacy Item carrying this passive — at the level 50 cap: 40% chance to Stun on hit. The number scales with the hero's level at forge time, and any hero can equip the item.

Recommended Skill Tree Themes

Crit (Deathmark keystone, Assassin's Mark, Glass Edge), Fortune (Treasure Hunter).

See the Skill Tree deep dive for the full 119-node reference and routing advice, or the Ranger build guide for a complete path recommendation for this class.

Sniper vs. Warden

Both subclasses unlock at level 10. Compare them to choose:

The choice is permanent — use a Scroll of Divergence consumable to re-select without retiring the hero.
