The Pathfinder Observer is a sniper rifle. It is available to players who purchased the Deluxe or Super Deluxe Edition. Tier V is the highest available for any Pathfinder firearm.

Description

This semi-automatic sniper rifle feeds data directly to a Pathfinder's SAM, allowing adjustments to the automatic weapon's balance, recoil, and heat buildup. The Observer records all scope data, even beyond the visual spectrum. It is a scientific tool as much as a deadly weapon.

Notes

The singleplayer stats shown on this page are baseline: Initiative I armor, no skill points assigned, no profile active.

The following augmentations cannot be applied to the Pathfinder Observer during development:

• Burst Fire System
• Medi-Gel Regulator
• Shield Accelerator
• Shield Booster
• Shield Generator

• Burst Fire System
• Medi-Gel Regulator
• Shield Accelerator
• Shield Booster
• Shield Generator

It is advised not to apply the Electrical Conduits augmentation to the Pathfinder Observer due to an automatic firing problem. (See here for details.)

As the Pathfinder Observer is already a semi-automatic weapon by default, do not apply the Single Fire System augmentation to this weapon during development. This only wastes an augmentation slot.

Despite being classified as Rare, the Pathfinder Observer only has 2 augmentation slots.

During a New Game +, the Special Delivery Cache terminal resets and another copy of this weapon at Tier I is awarded. This weapon will not be level-dependent.

All weapons in the Pathfinder Elite Weapon Set have a naming bug that occurs when developing these weapons. If you develop weapons at Tiers II-V, and do not rename the weapon, the weapon will default to Tier I in the name. The Tier II-V weapons are correct for stats/functionality, they just have the wrong name. If you want the name to display correctly, you will have to change the name.
