A Bolt Carbine Sniper that keeps cycling Camo Cloak: fire the moment you cloak and it can come back before Lingering Concealment ends. Purification restores contested health on cloaking, Targeted Shot adds 75% damage to the first attack out of cloak, Pattern of Excellence returns an equipment charge after three headshots, and Squad Renewal returns teammates' ability charge on headshot kills. Block Break, Vantage Point and Dexterous Hands round out the gun, while Emperor's Grace gives two seconds of invulnerability each time you cloak.
Strengths: forgiving and hard to kill. Weaknesses: it deliberately skips the Las Fusil, and survival depends on keeping the cloak cycling.

The creator treats the fourth prestige perk as a choice and names Indomitable Spirit first (Exacting Focus is the alternative); the link uses Indomitable Spirit. He advises against the Las Fusil for this build, while some other guides recommend it. The planner shows Heroic weapon variants as their base weapon, and the link does not include weapon perk trees.
