Of course, the power of an anti-material sniper rifle is not limited by an individual's skill level, nor can it enjoy bonuses from personal abilities.
This is precisely the key reason Yue Ying once mentioned that the upper limit of firearms will always be lower than that of melee weapons: Bai E cannot use techniques like "Instant Kill Nine Heads" to amplify the basic lethality of his weapon. This causes the inherent performance of firearms to become their limit in terms of causing damage, with the potential bonus from personal abilities being extremely limited.
To achieve a true over-the-limit burst, one must rely on the ultimate archery skills.
However, before the opportunity for a truly fatal shot presents itself, one cannot always rely on archery skills for regular output. Bai E's current Spiritual Energy reserves are insufficient to support continuous bursts; for sustained output, the use of firearms like the anti-material sniper rifle is more enduring.
