This page is about the Delta Sight, which was previously only able to be equipped on secondary weapons. This attachment has been extended for use on all, if not most guns in the game. For the attachment used on only primary weapons in the Other slot, see Canted Delta Sight.
The Delta Sight is an Optic attachment in Phantom Forces. It is unlocked by attaining 60 kills with a weapon or by purchasing for 270 credits.
History[]
The Delta Sight seems to be modeled off the Leupold DeltaPoint Pro, a red-dot sight very similar to the Delta. The product description states that the sight can withstand very harsh conditions, and is useful for "anything else that goes bang".[1]
In-Game[]
General Information[]
The Delta Sight is a low-magnification optic, with one of the lowest magnification levels available for an attachment in-game—1.15x. Similar to the Mini Sight in its design, the Delta Sight allows a clean and simple view of the target with the illuminated red chevron in the middle, which can also be applied well in dark areas or at night.
Usage & Tactics[]
Originally, the Delta Sight was intended to be a sight for secondary weapons, however, its ability to be equipped has been extended out to all weapons. With this being said, some weapons simply should not have the Delta Sight equipped, due to the very low magnification, for example, sniper rifles and designated marksman rifles, however, the latter would probably fare better. Weapons such as shotguns and personal defense weapons can apply the Delta Sight to a much more useful extent, where the iron sights are not clear enough to be well-applied, especially if the user prefers to aim down sight (ADS) in close quarter combat (CQC).
Conclusion[]
Simply put, the Delta Sight is useful on any weapon that the user desires to be applied at close range. Whether it be the MP5K, to the KS-23M, and even the Hecate II, the Delta Sight excels at its job, even though the weapon it is attached to may find itself in an unorthodox role.
Pros and Cons[]
Pros:
- Illuminated reticle.
- Simplistic and unobstructive frame.
- Unlocked early on a weapon.
Cons:
- Less precise reticle than other optics.
- Large reticle size—makes it harder to use at long range.
- Different reticle shape—some may find confusing.
Trivia[]
- As stated earlier, the Delta Sight is based on Leupold's DeltaPoint Pro. Other optics from Leupold have also been introduced into the game, such as the Leupold M8-6x, and the lower-magnification variant, the Leupold M8-2x.
- The lens of the Delta Sight clips out of the top frame a little bit
