— In-game description

The Rorsch MK-1 is a battle pickup weapon featured in Battlefield 4: Final Stand.

The Rorsch fires a heavy sabot round at a very high velocity, and causes incredible damage on impact, always killing a player on contact. However, the weapon has a one second charge-up before firing, and can only fire one round at a time, with the operator having to load another round into the gun after firing, with only seven rounds in reserve. The weapon is equipped with a blue laser sight and a specially designed 20x scope equipped with Variable Zoom, which displays the angle of elevation from the player, the player's directional heading in degrees, as well as the distance to the target. When firing, the weapon's charging time is represented by three successive high pitched beeps and arrows pointing towards the crosshair in the scope.

Due to its charge up time, the player must track the target or predict their position. However, because of its incredibly high velocity, this is the only thing the shooter has to account for, as the projectile has no drop and will hit target almost instantaneously due to its travel speed. The charging time, while fairly short, can be a potential hindrance in close quarters combat, along with the very long reload time should the player miss, but the attached laser sight can offer some assistance in keeping enemies on target. The projectile's high damage also gives the player an edge in combat, as the round will always kill its target.

Trivia

  • Currently, no sound is played during the weapon's reload, this has been fixed in the second beta of Final Stand.
