The Shooting Star is a primary weapon for the Sniper. This weapon is a Sniper Rifle made from a jury-rigged laser equipped with a telescopic sight with 2 fins atop it and a team-colored button on the side. An antennae protrudes from the barrel of the rifle with a small tube of team-colored liquid at the end of the barrel. The rifle is constructed from grayish-green metal and covered in a cream material at the stock and body of the rifle.

This weapon functions identically to the Machina.
