I consider myself a decent sniper, but when I go into Crucible, I'm wrecked beyond belief. There are guys who headshot me the very second they scope in. It's -blam!-ing ridiculous! I don't understand how they do it!
EDIT: A lot of people are saying that they get their skill from Halo. However, I actually snipe very well in Halo, but not-so-well in Destiny.
-
Reaction time, precision, and fast fingers. I notice that bad snipers often flinch.
-
I get my skill from Bettie field. ( the game )
-
Clearly... u suk at sniping lol
-
snapshot/lag? all a good sniper needs is a split-second to line-up the shot, and him having snapshot gives him a better window, as well as even a tiny bit of lag gives him a split-second to react before you can too. also some people move like their on rails, so predictable. SERPENTINE!!

I was just a faze quickscoper in Cod ghost
-
Practice. I suggest looking at TrueVangaurd's videos about Sniping.

Edited by Zero One: 6/14/2015 2:39:11 AMNever owned a sniper with final round but I play a lot of shooters so Destiny isn't too hard to snipe in. Also sniping in halo 2, 3, reach helps as well. I also play bf4 and when you can snipe there.....m

If the shot requires an unbelievable level of skill it's one of three things: 1. Final Round 2. Blind Luck 3. Top 1% pvp player.
-
Look up true vanguard. He's a beast at sniping.
-
As everyone is saying, it's simply practice when it comes to sniping quickly (othewise it's map awareness also). If you want to get better you should be (trying to) quickscope the heck outta the ai when doing pve.
-
I'm definitely not the best sniper but my advice would be to know the best sight lines and choke points on maps where you can snipe players without being completely in the open
-
Hella practice
-
Efrideets Spear :)
-
In trials last week I sniped the whole team while they were trying to get their heavy twice, team was freaking
-
It's not that all of them are good. The majority are using Final Round.
-
Practice, lots of practice
-
It's a Halo thing. A lot of people follow the target but only do that if you sweep. For the most part, what you really want to do is place your scope on where they're heading next, it's prediction at work.
-
Just keep practicing man it makes close to perfect also ice breaker is not punishing on ammo

“Unemployment gathers, and now my binge begins. It shall not end until my death. I shall take no wife, hold no lands, father no children. I shall wear no crowns and win no glory. I shall live and die at my controller. I am the sniper in the darkness. I am the sniper in the match. I am the fire that burns against the cold, the light that brings the dawn, the horn that wakes the sleepers, the shield that guards the realms of noobs. I pledge my life and honor to the Sniper Rifle, for this binge and all the binges to come.” That's how.

I'm guessing you don't have Matador or Felwinters
-
They were hard scoping you
-
Have the sniper at head level at all times. That means you only need to have to adjust one axis if you have good map knowledge
-
Keyboard mouse
-
It's called skill
-
Well, with Felwinters Lie, sniping is easy.
