Tips

 * In order to reach the full fire-rate, one must fire the next burst just before the "lever-action" animation is completed.
 * With a semi-auto burst trigger, the Sybaris benefits greatly from having an alternative mode of fire bound to the scroll wheel. The scroll wheel sends inputs to the game much more frequently than the left mouse button would, and the Sybaris is more likely to respond with a scroll than a click in between bursts. Proper use of the scroll wheel can provide additional comfort for the player, yet due to oversampling, it is marginally less effective than a timed click. Some players may also experience slight loss of accuracy due to altered grip on the mouse.

Trivia

 * Sybaris was an ancient Greek colony in southern Italy that was notable for its luxury.
 * It is also the name for a Drakaina (female dragon) from Greek mythology, which terrorized the countryside of Delphi, devouring livestock and people.
 * Sybaris is the second weapon that fires two shots per burst (following the Kraken), and the first rifle which does this.
 * The large disc with the glowing circular light by the Sybaris' grip is the weapon's magazine.
 * The Sybaris was the first weapon to be given the new Physical Based Rendering (PBR) graphics technique in, which gave the weapon a gleaming, metallic texture while still allowing for color customization. This graphics rendering technique would later be applied to select weapons and items in the game.
