Video:To all those saying "Shut up shotgun nub. You can't make dis post unless you use the OP weapon U make argument against. U can't snipez , cuz you barely even use dem."
Snipers have may be the most skilled, but do they really have a high learning curve in Destiny, if not, a learning curve at all? Let's see why I believe they need nerfing:
-The ridiculous impact snipers can one shot revived enemies, completely ruining the point of over shields on revives
-Very High Target Acquisition makes head shots extremely easy to get
-Little to No Recoil allows for follow up shots to be extremely easy with little to no effort
-No Sway, allowing players to be completely agile and spam fire while maintaining targets
-No velocity limitations (Why would bungie add Hakkë weapons with velocity buffs, yet there are no limitations/mechanics to make this relevant? This applies to all weapons)
-High rates of fire (Similar to scout rifles)
-Head shot hit boxes are big, allowing for ridiculous one shot kills that shouldn't happen (Neck, shoulder, ect)
-Semi high ROF snipers with all listed above.... Really, Bungie?
-Conspiracy Theory-D
-Can outgun regular CQC weapons because of all listed above
-I recommend Nerfing the salty community as well. Nerf cries are running rampant on things that don't even need it. (In short, don't always listen to the bitching unless you actually looked into it.)
Other than that, they're completely fine and only skilled players can use them, right? (Obvious sarcasm) No, but seriously, something needs to be done about this. Anyone else agree?

Edited by The Spartyboy: 11/4/2015 3:28:19 PMDid you not play year one? It was soooo much easier to sniper in year one than it is now. The hit boxes for the head were twice as big and there was basically infinite range. Not to mention that every body and there mother had the unflinching/target acquisition sniper because it was so easy to reforge. And the point about revive sniping, lol, don't get killed by the guy in the first place, or have your team do something about the sniper before they revive you right in front of him. If the dudes teammates in the vid had just gone after you with a shotty, you would have been done for, but those kids just sucked. Shotguns can do the same thing to revive shields, by the way. Do you people just complain about everything you get killed by? "oh em gee this dude killed me with a gun gotta nerf it". Complain about something that is actually something they need to fix, like sunbreakers, or loot tables, or trials. Like damn, guns are the last thing they need to worry about.
