The Stig Rifle is a new Weapon introduced on the Halloween Update 2015. It was the prize for the last tier of the Final Scare Chapter of the Halloween Haunt Event. According to the description, it is an Assault Rifle capable of "blowing the enemies' heads away".

Strategy
Run and Gun: The Agility of this Weapon is very high, so it is a good idea to run all the time. Since the travel speed of the Weapon's bullets is a bit slow some of your shots might miss the target but the Weapon still deals a lot of damage in a short amount of time. It drains the enemies Health all the way down in a couple of seconds. For this strategy its the best to use 14% Agility and 10% Health Equipment or 7% Agility, 10% Health and 10% Accuracy.

Ambush: This strategy is very simple, hide behind corners, 90 degree turns, walls etc. and wait for your opponents to get closer and as soon as they get in your range, take them out by surprise. Always use Spotter or the Cyber Ninja Helmet when using this strategy. Start shooting when your crosshairs turn red. For this Strategy its the best to use 7% Agility, 10% Health and 10% Accuracy Equipment.
