The Call Never Changes
If you’re a CoD (Call of Duty) veteran, you know how to roll between the enemy lines of the famous franchise. And if you’re new to the “Call,” you’ll soon realize how much the FPS (First Person Shooter) genre has evolved.
Point-and-shoot doesn’t cut it anymore. In video games like Call of Duty, you outsmart your opponents with tactical equipment and stealthy cover.
With some improvements in the shooting community (and Artificial Intelligence programming), the FPS genre keeps going strong. Furthermore, with the addition of gaming modes (like DMZ), the player base in CoD keeps growing.
In this article, you’ll find information about Call of Duty DMZ and how to eliminate a boss called Sniper.
Call of Duty DMZ
If you’re one of those players who tends to avoid the PvP (Player versus Player) in the FPS genre or a Call of Duty completionist, this game mode is for you. Call of Duty DMZ is a Sandbox-style Extraction Royale Mode that uses AI for your opponents.
The “Extraction Royale” became famous thanks to Escape from Tarkov, where you land in an abandoned area, looking for loot or special equipment. After you gather enough materials, you need to leave the place successfully. If someone or something takes you down, you will fail the extraction and lose your equipment.
Some NPCs (Non-Playable Characters) in Call of Duty DMZ have better equipment and complex behavior. For example, you’ll come across the Sniper boss that comes with auto-aim and shoots their weapon (sniper) constantly. With that kind of power, the match “feels” unfair for new players and challenging for veterans.
As a player, outsmarting the AI is key. Running without a cover against the Sniper should be avoided. Instead, move between covers and use tactical equipment.
How Do You Kill The Sniper In DMZ – [Easy Guide]
Let’s move ahead and talk about how to Kill the Sniper in DMZ.
DMZ Sniper Location
Once you load a new “adventure” in the Call of Duty DMZ game mode, move to kill the Sniper in the DMZ. You can find the Sniper boss in the Factory Wing section (upper level) of the Koschei Complex of DMZ. The Sniper boss always appears to be teaming up with the Rhinoceros boss.
When you spot your prey (the Sniper boss), you’ll see them wielding a Victus XMR combined with a Lachmann Sub. On the other hand, if the Sniper boss spots you first, they will fire constantly in his line of sight. Even if you move between the upper or lower levels, the Sniper will keep an eye on you.
When you reach the upper level, you’ll find multiple Al-Qatala soldiers protecting the Sniper boss, making things more tedious. Furthermore, if you’re not careful, you might trigger exploding laser traps along the way. If you want to avoid the traps, change your stance to prone and move carefully.
Even if you had the “Kill the Sniper DMZ Season 4” or “Kill the Sniper DMZ Season 5” mission, the procedure to complete these tasks is similar.
After you “smoke” your target, it will drop weapons such as the Lachmann Sub and the Victus XMR. Additionally, you get the key to the Factory Wing Secure Room. Once inside the Secure Room, you’ll find a Koschei Complex Weapons Case and red crates.
Where to kill the Sniper DMZ
The Sniper boss remains in his quarters inside the Factory Wing. Once you start an encounter with the Rhinoceros boss, the Sniper boss will retreat and find more cover.
Sometimes, Call of Duty sends you a task to kill the Sniper boss with a weapon type. Hence, move as close as possible and eliminate your target with the right tool.
Once you get a hold of the tactics from both bosses (Rhinoceros and Sniper), the rest is easy. Remember to “take care” of the mobs (Al-Qatala soldiers) quickly and avoid collisions with the laser traps.
Kill the Sniper DMZ Solo
Here you’ll get a good strategy on how do you kill the sniper in DMZ. Use cover as much as possible and avoid close combat.
The “cheesy” strategy is to use a Bomb Drone to kill him before you trigger the Rhinoceros boss. However, if you need to kill the Sniper with a certain weapon, engage your target as close as possible.
Take care of the Rhinoceros boss first with piercing armor bullets, defeat the mobs, and avoid the laser traps. Slowly, you’ll DMZ kill the Sniper solo.
Kill the Sniper DMZ in a Group
The Call of Duty DMZ Game Mode allows you to play with other players on the same map. You can invite your close friends to the adventure or use the in-game matchmaking tool.
Many veterans will understand your tasks at hand, and they will deploy the necessary tools. Have some patience with the new players though, it might take some time, but you’ll get the same results.
You can “cheese” the DMZ Sniper team hideout with Bomb Drones or use extra bullets from the crew. Once you gather all the goods, you can leave the Factory Wing.
Above all, you still need to extract all the goods after you complete the “Kill the Sniper DMZ mission.” With assistance from a strong team, you can leave the place without problems.
Kill the Sniper DMZ Stealth Vest Barter Recipe Reward
One of the greatest rewards from the encounter is the Stealth Vest Barter Recipe. After you defeat the Sniper boss once, you will get the recipe with a successful extraction.
The Stealth Vest Barter is a great tool for future encounters with the same bosses (Rhinoceros and Sniper). You’ll have more gadgets which help you move around the place undetected.
Overall, you get an outstanding unlockable for your Call of Duty DMZ adventures.
Wrapping Up
If you can already tell, the Call of Duty DMZ Game Mode has potential. You can learn basic gaming mechanics while playing against NPCs and completing random tasks.
Once you get a hold of the offensive and defensive tactics, you can show your knowledge in the PvP events.
Taking “care” of the Sniper boss can become tedious on your first try. However, once you get a hold of the AI movement and know how to avoid the laser traps, the rest becomes easy for you soldiers. Grab your best equipment and complete a successful extraction.
Good luck!
