The Heatmaker's a weapon for very skilled Snipers, with the focus that allows the player to get their shots off fast and the reduced bodyshot damage. If you don't know what you're doing, this weapon will punish you for it. Using this weapon offensively is extremely risky and an aggressive Sniper should avoid that and use more reliable options, such as the Stock Sniper Rifle or Machina. This weapon is for the "real" Snipers, the ones that sit in the very back and line up every shot with deadly precision. If you can land your shots consistently, this weapon will reward you greatly. This weapon isn't really a great choice for new players as this weapon can become frustrating and the player'd be better off with the Stock, or another, more reliable option. This weapon is the very definition of "high-risk, high-reward." That, and it blows enemies' heads clean off when you land a headshot.
