Stryder M1T

The Stryder M1T is a fine-tuned semiautomatic precision rifle in Marathon that fires Light Rounds with excellent per-shot damage and the longest effective range of any precision rifle in its class at 84 meters. With 36 damage per shot, a 1.6x precision multiplier, and a firepower score of 57.6, the Stryder M1T hits hard enough to demand respect in every engagement. Its 12-round magazine, 1.8x zoom, and 62% accuracy score make it a natural fit for runners who want to dominate at extended ranges where automatic weapons struggle to compete. Rated S-Tier in the current meta, it is considered among the top choices for precision-focused runners.

The Stryder M1T fires at 180 RPM, which is modest for a semiautomatic but sufficient for controlled engagements where the first shot often determines the outcome. Its moving inaccuracy of 20.5% encourages a crouch-and-fire discipline, and the 80% crouch spread bonus rewards stationary positioning significantly. The weapon supports Optic, Chip, Magazine, and Barrel mod slots, giving experienced runners substantial room to customize for their preferred engagement style. Runners who thrive on measured, deliberate target selection and holding long sightlines will find the Stryder M1T a precision instrument that rewards patience. Its main limitation is the 12-round magazine and moderate DPS of 108, which can become liabilities in chaotic close-quarters scenarios where faster firing alternatives are better suited.
