The Branch of Wisdom is a Sniper weapon introduced in the 22.0.0 update. It can be obtained by reaching Tier 50 in the Mirrored Christmas Season Pixel Pass. It is a fantasy-themed sniper rifle that fires white energy lasers that feature the 
attribute. It deals high damage, has a slow fire rate, a low ammo capacity, and moderate mobility.
Appearance
The weapon itself is made of a shiny dark purple crystal. It features a dark purple skeletal stock connected to the body of the weapon. The body features a white energy orb that powers the weapon embedded in the middle of the receiver, an integrated 8x scope on top, and a floating white barrel made of energy at the front.
In addition, there is a white owl spirit that acts as the player's source of ammo.
Performance
When the fire button is pressed, the weapon will fire a white laser. This laser features the attribute and will pierce through walls and objects, as well as enemies. Between each shot, the user will press the middle orb.
When reloading, the same owl will give the player a fresh energy orb, in which the user will insert in the middle.
It receives and gives delay, meaning that once the player fires and switches from any weapon to this weapon, the Branch of Wisdom will always have a pull-up delay lasting around half of a second.
Strategy
Tips
- Aim for the head to maximize damage.
- Use the scope at long ranges. Its high magnification makes it useful for precise aiming at these distances.
- Try strafing while aiming to prevent enemies from hitting you when engaged in a firefight.
- If an enemy survives the shot, finish them off with a Primary, Backup or Special weapon.
- Its attribute is useful for attacking enemies behind objects such as walls and behind cover.
- When moving, it is recommended to equip a Melee weapon due to its low mobility.
- Avoid sticking to one sniping spot as users can track the weapon's lasers to its source.
Counters
- If engaged in a sniper duel, take time to aim.
- Area damage weapons and shotguns can quickly finish users off.
- Strafe around the user while firing to avoid getting hit.
- Try to wait until the user is out of ammo, then attack while they are vulnerable.
- It fires a noticeable projectile, keep an eye out for the source of the laser as it may indicate the general area of where the user may be.
- Avoid being caught in the open when there is a sniper, stick to cover and locate the sniper then attempt to countersnipe them with your own.
- Flamethrowers and shotguns can be useful for quickly killing users at close range.
