Sniper

"Yeah, well, Mayfeld, he's… He's one of the best triggermen I've ever seen. Former Imperial sharpshooter."
"That's not saying much."
"I wasn't a stormtrooper, wiseass."

―Ranzar Malk, Din Djarin, and Migs Mayfeld

Commando droids aim for incoming clone troopers.

Sniper, sharpshooter, marksman, markswoman, or shooter was a term which described individuals who shot—or specialized to shoot—a target from a long range. Often concealing themselves in a hidden location, snipers required patience and a steady, precise aim.
