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.

Half of my overall kills are from sniping. Also, try to remember where heads will be on certain parts of maps. Look for lines, tree branches, a spot on a rock etc. Also try strafing a bit as well instead of just moving the rifle itself. Easier to acquire targets and keep from getting shot as well. Also, what's your sensitivity? I play at 4. They can help you a great bit. Some people say they play at 10 sensitivity, but I have no idea how anyone can control that. Just experiment and find what sensitivity works for you. Edit: Half of my kills aren't from snipers after further review. Apologize for the false information. Some people go to great lengths to be complete d-bags about something instead of acting mature when informing me.
