A chief consideration when developing a weapon to use with this new technology, called "Dispel", was how accurately it could hit its target. In this regard, it was only a matter time that the sniper rifle used by the most skilled marksmen would be selected for the job.

In order to properly use the "Dispel" skill, "Piercing Light" uses special ammunition that can store energy internally. Called a Hollow Round, this bullet contains a special empty space to store energy inside a battery.

The energy created within the Dispel device that's built-in to the firearm gets stored in this bullet and ultimately strikes the enemy. An enemy hit by this bullet will have their buffs neutralized and eliminated.
