The Sydney Sleeper is a community-created primary weapon for the Sniper. It is a single-shot pneumatic dart gun with an air tank with spare team-colored darts (with corks) attached to the stock, a scope fitted to the top, and feathers tied to the barrel. When equipped, the bullets in the Sniper's breast pocket are replaced with darts.
Like the Sniper Rifle, the Sydney Sleeper can scope, and has a charge function when scoping. However, upon zooming in whilst scoped, a flashing Jarate icon appears next to the charge meter, indicating that the shot will soak an enemy target with a Jarate effect, scaled from 2 to 5 seconds, depending on the charge level. The Sydney Sleeper is able to extinguish teammates that are on fire. The Sydney Sleeper has a 25% faster charge rate, meaning that it takes 2.7 seconds, reduced from the Sniper Rifle's 3.3 second charge time, to fully charge a shot whilst scoped.
When the Sydney Sleeper makes a headshot while scoped in, the victim takes mini-crit damage, and the cooldown of Jarate, if equipped, is reduced by one second.
The weapon's main drawback for precision Snipers is its inability to deal critical hits with headshots, therefore relying more heavily on assists to finish off key targets. However, this also means that the Sniper can be less accurate, and with the Jarate effect, targets can easily be dealt with by the user's teammates.
The kill icon for the Sydney Sleeper was contributed by MasterOfOrigami.
