Scoped heavy rifle. The Kraber-Armor Penetration (AP) is the only weapon in game that allows you to eliminate enemy pilots, grunts, or spectres in only one single shot no matter the distance. Despite this, it is a projectile weapon compared to many of its hitscan counterparts, with a slow rate of fire, making it generally a poor choice for the hectic speed of Pilot vs Pilot combat. However, all things considered, this is what makes the weapon endearing to so many players, as the high skill ceiling required to truly master the Kraber makes it simultaneously one of the most frustrating and satisfying weapons to use.
Pros
High damage - guaranteed to kill enemy infantry in one shot.
As a sniper rifle, has access to longer range scopes than other weapons.
Cons
Extremely poor accuracy when firing from the hip.
The rifle is a projectile based weapon, requiring the user lead their shots in order to score a hit.
Strong projectile drop due to gravity.
Low fire rate due to being a bolt-action weapon.
