AMR Bullet
The Anti-materiel Rifle is a craftable post-Moon Lord gun. If Musket Balls are used as ammo, it fires a high-damage High Velocity Bullet. If the first bullet critically strikes an enemy, a second swarm of 5 bullets will fly towards the enemy's position from the left side of the screen regardless of if the enemy was killed or not; if it does not critically strike, only 2 bullets will spawn. Holding right click will use its zoom ability, which scrolls the viewing area of the screen in the direction of the cursor in a fashion similarly to the Sniper Rifle. Bullets fired from this weapon inflict the Marked for Death debuff, and reduce enemy defense by 25.
Its best modifier is Unreal. Rapid may be preferred for a higher DPS, as the Anti-materiel Rifle fires extremely slowly. Ruthless may also be preferred for a large damage boost, as the Anti-materiel Rifle's base damage is extremely high.

Tips
- If used in conjunction with the set bonus of Silva armor, it is possible to massively heal upon shooting an enemy.
- However, the Silva armor set is geared towards mages and summoners, so this is not very practical.
- It is recommended to focus on boosting your critical strike chance while using the Anti-materiel Rifle, as critical strikes will greatly increase its DPS.
Trivia
- In real life, an anti-materiel rifle is a rifle that is designed for use against military equipment (or "materiel" in military terminology), rather than against other combatants ("anti-personnel").
- The weapon's sprite is very similar to the one used by its former rare variant, the Skullmasher, before its removal.
