The 
Sniper is one of the Adept Archetypes in Metaphor: ReFantazio. It is capable of destroying hordes of enemies with multi-target attacks and heal allies too defend them too. It is weak to Slash damage, but strong against Electric damage.
The Sniper is a part of the 
Gunner Lineage and investing in it will allow you to unlock its Elite form: the 
Dragoon. The Sniper Archetype is a tricky class to use, due to its attacks and defensive strategy-focus, but you can do a lot of damage with it.
