Sniper Damage Maths

Decided to compare the crit and other things of sniper archetypes (plus Darci). All tests were done on Orange Bar Loyalist Collosuses (why am I a masochist) in non prestige Leviathan, top of the stairs.

Alone as a God (140RoF) 3,908 damage per crit.

Elegy-49 (90RoF) 4,874 damage per crit.

Maestro (72Rof) 5,554 damage per crit.

Darci (140RoF-Exotic) 4,188 damage per crit with Target Acquired active.

Both 90RoF and 72RoF snipers only got 3 ammo per brick, 140RoF gets 4 per brick. Darci, however, gets **5** per brick. By extension, Darci 20,940 damage per brick, Maestro 16,662 damage per brick, Elegy 14,622 damage per brick, and Alone 15,632 per brick.

**Maestro** can get 27,770 damage (5 crits, triple tap required) before reloading

**Alone as a God** can get 27,356 damage (7 crits, triple tap required) before reloading

**Elegy** can get 19,496 damage (4 crits) before reloading.

**Darci** can get 29,316 damage (7 crits) before reloading.

Someone else feel free to factor fire rate into these considerations, or compare it to other heavies such as rockets. I feel they look serviceable (I noted one Sins shot doing ~7k but I didn't wanna look through every cluster and such) compared to other power weapons.

Personal observations: Darci has the best ammo efficiency and damage before reloading, in both doing more per shot and gaining an extra shot per brick. Darci can also hold 23 shots vs Alone's 18. Also 90RoF seems the worst in most areas. Alone MIGHT beat Maestro for DPS depending on fire rate, but I'm not sure. Darci sits above both for sure.

I kinda just did this all on a whim, so I figured I'd share it as to not have the time used wasted. I figure the damage numbers are probably already spreadsheet'd but **maybe no one bothered adding context to them** yet?

As mentioned at the start, all this data is against Loyalist Collosus in Leviathan, so while the numbers are synced to each other they may not sync with outside damage numbers, unless you also test on the same enemies.

*edit* Whoops! I miscalculated Alone's triple tapping (somehow got 8 instead of the actual 7) credit to u/Luke_the_OG for pointing out my mistake.
