Long-range marksman zoom and firearm criticals
Crafted at a Tinkerer's Workshop from Sniper Scope and Putrid Scent. Recon Scope grants a 10% boost to ranged damage and a 10% increase to ranged critical strike chance. Holding any gun and holding right-click extends the camera view outward, allowing scouting and engagement of distant hazards. Furthermore, it lowers enemy aggro by 400, diverting monster attention toward other targets, preventing sudden enemy swarms.
Scope accessory stacking and post-Plantera gunplay
Obtained post-Plantera from Dungeon materials, Recon Scope stacks its offensive bonuses additively with Sniper Scope and Ranger Emblem. Ranged loadouts equipping both scopes achieve formidable critical strike frequency with rapid firearms like Megashark or Chain Gun. In cooperative battles, the reduced aggro allows marksmen to fire continuously from safety while teammates anchor the frontline. Reforging to Lucky or Menacing yields optimal ballistic results across endgame events, significantly increasing projectile efficiency against Martian Saucers and Duke Fishron.
Trivia
- The flavor text 'Enemy spotted' references classic tactical shooter callouts.
- Equipping both Recon Scope and Sniper Scope simultaneously stacks their damage and critical bonuses together.
