I'm not sure which rifle to upgrade for Harec, the Vindicata Anima or the Aura Mortis.

I do have the Easter Egg which is amazing but it lacks damage for boss fights or missions where it seems I'm literally the only person doing damage like the Beholder in "In Shock". It is great against antagonist and infantry but the secondary explosive rounds don't seem to do much. I'd really prefer to use this as it is great but oh well.

Anyway, the only real issue I have is the charge time on the Aura Mortis, it makes me concerned about other enemy sniper - type antagonists with a faster charge. I feel like a sitting duck.

The Vindicata Anima has always done enough damage to down them(snipers) and it is quick to charge but doesn't pack as much of a punch for bosses if no antagonist appears.

Oh and I try to make the antagonist high priority as Harec to protect teammates especially if it's a sniper.

Any advice would be awesome, thanks

Hey, I just started playing for Harec. I've forged the easter egg (forge 20) and it was nice, but I feel your pain. I liked the AoE effect. The enemy within was horrible though, couldn't do much.
Now I've forged the Ignis and it's amazing, even against bosses. Kuzmans level is now so easy, reliably 1600 damage on a headshot (with one of the 5 crit rounds). I can highly recommend it.

I don't know about the other ones, but I get why most people use the Ignis.

If you want good damage from a common blueprint alongside some speed but nothing too special, upgrade the Vindicta Anima.
If you want excellent damage and no stress increase with any shot at the cost of a slower but more patient approach, upgrade the Aura Mortis.
(Extra) If you want a somewhat quick firing weapon that causes some damage and you're worrysome about missing with your one-shot snipers, upgrade the Ferox Impetus instead.
As for the Rares :
If you want a quick scoping sniper with great crit damage, upgrade the Ignis Fugit and lastly
If you want a serviceable sniper with the added bonus of Trap Mines, upgrade the Easter Egg.
