Scope out the enemy with this long-range revolver style rifle.

Ivara ran at a wall, and up it.

Hanging there, waiting, as the Myrmidon flipped into the room, blasting the spot where he had expected her to be. Frustrated he again made that same elaborate gesture, trying his luck, and she saw it: that bracelet upon the wrist that glowed softly with the movement of that clutching gesture. Ivara flipped from her perch, shouldering her exquisitely-crafted Rubico as she did so, and sighted the enemy.

Through the Orokin-sculpted scope, hunter and huntress met eye-to-eye, each loosing a desperate blast: a bullet from Ivara, a killing light from the Myrmidon. The green light lashed, touching a shoulder plate of Ivara's Avia Armor, reducing it to dust. It saved her. Huntress won out, her shot claiming the Myrmidon's device in a shower of sparks.

But the Myrmidon's weapon remained lethal, and with it he lashed out at Ivara in an emerald fury.

The Rubico is a revolver-styled Tenno Sniper Rifle released in Update 18.0 (2015-12-03). It currently boasts the highest critical multiplier of all available sniper rifles at the expense of status chance.

Notes

  • The Rubico has the highest critical multiplier of any sniper rifle, with a base multiplier of 3x.
    • On the other hand, it has a dismal status chance of 12%, being the lowest for all the sniper rifles. This is compared to the 20-30% of the other sniper rifles, a considerable difference.
    • The crit damage bonus from zooming is treated in the damage calculation like a respective mod. Therefore, it is additive with mods like Mod TT 20px Vital Sense, Mod TT 20px Hammer Shot, and Mod TT 20px Bladed Rounds.
  • It closely resembles the Grineer Vulkar Vulkar in terms of damage type distribution and other stats; the main difference being the Rubico has higher critical stats, while having lower status, base damage, and magazine.
  • The Rubico requires only a single shot to activate its Shot Combo Counter, giving it an immediate 1.5x total damage multiplier on the first shot, and a 2.0x total damage multiplier after its third shot, giving it the ability to quickly ramp up its damage with a single magazine. On the other hand, it has a short combo decay counter that lasts only 2 seconds, thus reloading at 2.4 seconds will always lower its shot combo counter if there are no reload mods present
  • The combo multiplier starts at 1.5x on the first shot and requires triple the amount of shots to reach each consecutive tier.

Combo Counter Bonus Tier Total Base Damage Multiplier Minimum Consecutive
Hits Required
1 1.5x 1
2 2.0x 3
3 2.5x 9
4 3.0x 27
5 3.5x 81
6 4.0x 243
7 4.5x 729
8 5.0x 2187

Tips

Trivia 

  • Rubico is a clay made from crushed basalt that is used to build tennis courts, with its green color being similar to the default color of this weapon.
  • The Rubico appears to share an aesthetic with the Talons Talons thrown bombs and Lacera Lacera bladed whip, both of which are also included in the Huntress Bundle.

Bugs

  • It seems as though there is a chance for a bullet to not hit its mark, even when scoped in.
