Super SASS Mod

Super SASS Mod
Rifle ★★★★ Very Specific Niche Shit

Her mod has changed her up from just a 1-shot-1-kill attempt like the other bamboo rifles and gone to... uhm.. she keeps trying to kill them if she fails. It's sort of funny thinking about it, with her going "WHY WONT YOU DIE, JUST DIE ALREADY" as she keeps unloading into the poor fucker who should have been killed.

It's not especially useful right now, but if there's a situation where you want an actual specific thing killed and need something that will keep targeting that thing, it has some potential use. It's very very niche and she's not an especially big priority right now, though.

Mosin Nagant Mod

Mosin Nagant Mod
Rifle ★★★★★ Weirdly decent specialist

Let's get this out of the way now, I hate the Mosin and think of it as a garbage thing. Most of the people who love the thing are weirdos or idiots who have never tried comparing the Mosin to an actual well-built modern gun, which does almost anything it does but better. Hayha used it because he had nothing else to use, not because he wanted one. And now that I've told all the Zaytsev fanboys to get fucked, the Mod is actually surprisingly useful for some specific circumstances that require exactly some high shot firepower and also the occassional small bamboo removal service. This is rare (mostly weird event and ranking stuff, or some strats for some enemies you're not meant to fight), but she's there for when you need it. Aside from that, her main use is that at Mod 3, with all her special gear and oath bonuses, she is more powerful in terms of damage than NTW-20, and thus is good for cheesing data sim ranking.

EM-2

EM-2
Assault Rifle ★★★★ Weird, but definitely has uses

Santa's secret hit-elf to snuff out those on the VERY NAUGHTY list. Her skill involves RNG burst damage; she targets random stuff and applies a fair bit of pain on them, with three sets of 3.5x shots. If there's only one valid target, all three shots will hit that target. She's actually stronger than she looks, and you can kill most bosses (INCLUDING AGENT!) in one shot if you cheese multipliers hard enough. She won't replace anything in the regular meta, but is handy for anything that needs some burst damage (like some KCCO units), if you don't mind the randomness.

NTW-20 Mod

NTW-20 Mod
Rifle ★★★★★★ Very Weird Removal Specialist

The very first 6 star on EN! And she's... buggy as fuck actually and with more weird shit going on than the UNS secret weapons programs. For example the way she misses her first firing cycle is a patchwork for a different bug and basically it's awkward to use her for a lot of meme things.

Boasting really high FP and multipliers though (especially with her unique equipment and ability to hit 200 affection if oathed), she got converted from a straight boss killer to a very weird assassin that removes certain enemies from the field. Her second skill makes her preferentially target units she can destroy, which makes her actually pretty handy for quick removal. Moreover, if she DOES actually kill it, she gets buffs for the next shot which... unfortunately can miss, which makes her less useful at night for this.

She's not particularly useful right now, but if you have specific needs for that sort of thing, she can work. She is however, a very expensive investment, so make sure it's what you actually want.

Rifle ★★★★ Trophy Raifu

A small bamboo with a bonus side effect. Unfortunately the side effect isn't enough to make her worth it. A shame really, since she looks nice.

Rifle ★★★★★ Niche uses

Welp this is it. The big mamma of all bamboo rifles. I was trying very hard to make a Canadian joke except she beat me to the punch on all of them. She is OFFENSIVELY Canadian (despite being a US product, the rifle is more famous for Canadian use).

As far as Bamboo rifles go, she is THE big stick, delivering sweet, maple syrup flavoured death to all comers. Initial startup similar to small bamboo, but with damage equivalent to multiple big bamboo rifles combined when used properly. Don't let the lower multiplier fool you - what sets her apart is the fact she can crit. This is massive, as it opens up extra layers of multipliers simply not available to any other bamboo rifle. How much damage? With her full posse and a maxed out command fairy, she can spike vs 320k HP bosses, so yeah. Although...in current year, MICA has decided to give bosses a gorillion HP. Put bluntly, Narciss in FP has 3 million HP. So uh...doing over 300k is at least some amount of her HP bar? While a bit of hyperbole, the point remains the same. You're not going to really be sniping bosses for one shot kills anymore. Either they kill you or they have way more HP than you can cut through in one shot.

An (kind of) unfortunate trait is that due to her funny timings, it is not possible to efficiently use her with other bamboo rifles, as she has different aim times from any other one (she's faster than small bamboos).

Yes bamboo is niche, but if you really cbf to "fight" a boss and would rather just skip the fact they exist, here you go.

Panzerbüchse 39

Panzerbüchse 39
Rifle ★★★★ Probably the worst rifle in the game

Aka PzB39

Has the same useless skill as JS05, with nothing to save her from being just as useless. Bring 2* rifles if you're running out of good ones, they're still better than her.

With the new changes to RF skills she... uhm... managed to be even shittier, easily earning the "Worst RF in the game" award with how her shot literally does less than a normal shot at base power (at skill lvl10!) and also having an aiming time of slower than her natural RoF.

DSR-Precision DSR-50

DSR-Precision DSR-50
Rifle ★★★★★ Niche uses

AKA… I'm sure you can come up with a few backronyms for DSR, given her artwork.

She's a big bamboo with decent stats (higher firepower than M99, lower than NTW-20), but a variable multiplier on her skill damage. 6x (at full charges) against unarmoured enemies is extremely unattractive – Mosin with her chip manages the same damage output, with much lower cooldown –, but 10x (again, assuming full charge) against armoured enemies is very attractive on paper, since a lot of bosses you want to smack with bamboos are armoured.

…except, of course, MICA does it weirdly: DSR's skill doesn't look at the armour stat, but at a separate, hidden "has armour" tag that some armoured enemies do not have set, and the way tags work in the game means it can be buggy whether it works or not, further making her less useful. Additionally, bamboo Rifles got a rework that makes them a pain in the ass to use at full power in exchange for being technically more flexible.

If you know what you're doing, you can delete an enemy target in short order. If you don't... you might be better off doing some research before deciding if this is the doll for you.

Additionally, bamboo Rifles got a rework that makes them a pain in the ass to use at full power in exchange for being technically more flexible. This however did fairly little to keep them relevant.

OTs-44

OTs-44
Rifle ★★★ Trophy Raifu

A big bamboo with stats even worse than PTRD, and a pathetic damage multiplier. If better bamboos are relegated to extreme niches/irrelevancy what hope did she have?

JS05

JS05
Rifle ★★★★★ Trophy Raifu

She was part of the group of 5 stars, where they tried out new things to see if they would work. Unfortunately, the wonkiness of how she worked and not playing into how battles played out, AT ALL made her shittier than even the mediocre 3 star RFs. RIP wasted design.

With the revision, it's even worse now. You can literally improve her DPS by turning her skill off, due to the aim time taking longer than normal RoF while still dealing only 1x damage. ...And it still generally doesnt get to punch through stuff.

Somehow, after all this time, she's still in the dumpster. At least Kar98k got some love?

CZ75

CZ75
Handgun ★★★★★ Niche uses

The original Wonder Nine, she has... absolutely nothing in common with any of the other wonder nines in the game, instead opting to have a Tactical Throwing Ax which is more useful than her other gun. Basically, she's a bamboo spear unit in handgun form. Surprisingly good damage for such low base ATK if teamed with the right support squad. Seems niche, but she can actually 1-shot some bosses if setup properly.

Heckler & Koch PSG-1

Heckler & Koch PSG-1
Rifle ★★★★ Trophy Raifu

Perhaps 1 of the most disliked T-dolls on the Korea server, for diluting the drop pool from Ouroboros taking away chances at Five-seveN there. To add insult to injury, she then became available on construction. Lacks the firepower and multiplier to do a proper bamboo spear job (RoF-oriented stats with bamboo skill), and probably the worst character voiced by Mingosu.

United States Rifle, 7.62 mm, Sniper, M21

United States Rifle, 7.62 mm, Sniper, M21
Rifle ★★★ Trophy Raifu

4-6 and 4-4E exclusive drop. Despite being an improved version of M14, is actually shittier than M14 in every way. Not to be mistaken for Zas M21, who is actually more useful. +9 firepower from her exclusive doesn't change her up much either.

Armalite Super SASS

Armalite Super SASS
Rifle ★★★ Trophy Raifu

In another setting, another game, she might have been the plucky, determined, hard working cinnamon roll heroine. This is not that game.

Her mod can be found here

PTRD

PTRD
Rifle ★★★★ Niche uses

Probably the easiest among the bamboo spear units to get. Not actually as good as the others, while having the same disadvantages. Her special equipment is basically a Camo Cloak but with +1 RoF. Shame bamboo rifles are pretty irrelevant since MICA said stop one shotting our bosses. Oh well.
