Rolled with the proper perks, I believe this rifle is a bit game breaking and should be nerfed. Certain perks shouldn't be allowed on sniper rifles (e.g. armor piercing rounds, final round). What do you guys think? I put together a montage of how ridiculous this weapon is.
***Update: I am more so asking for opinions on the perks (final round, armor piercing rounds) and wether you consider them overpowered or not on a sniper rifle. Efrideet's Spear is simply an excellent example of these perks due to the reforging option, small clip size, and massive impact.

Got 2 spears with Armor Piercing and Final Round, and a 3rd with AP and something else.. Best gun evaaa
-
Everyone who doesn't agree that this gun is OP is either too busy getting rolled in the crucible by everything else, or is severely retarded. High impact snipers need a nerf, or final round can't be on snipers. Case closed.

One of my favorite songs. And I had no idea the IB snipe could do that. Holy balls
-
Me jelly
-
Theez nuts are over powerd
-
Do my eyes decieve me or are you actually killing people through walls?
-

-
It absolutely is. It's glorious!

Edited by FullSpe3D: 1/24/2015 6:56:25 PMI'll be interested to see how the forums take this post with a video linked of someone actually using it. Whenever someone says this without a video, you just get a bunch of people who tell you it's balanced. Either they've never faced a good team of Spears in their life, or they actually use the Spear themselves, and don't want it nerfed because that's the only way they can get kills. Edit: Seems like people still think it's balanced. Lmao.

Shhhh, I got 2 of them...please don't ruin the best kept secret in Destiny.
-
I had NO idea Armor Piercing was this good...especially at range!!!! I was awarded the Spear during my last IB run last time...will def spec into it lol!
-
Judging by all these comments I would say that high impact final round armor piercing snipers aren't going to get nerf'd in PvP anytime soon because nobody sees a problem with it. You guys who don't agree this is OP have no idea how scary this kind of sniper is in the crucible. The nerf should be considered.
-
I saw that you used the term "twitch shot", is that the same or close to "drag scopes"
-
Still takes skill though. I have the spear, with armor piercing and final round and I still don't go on massive sprees with it or anything. I even shot a titan yesterday at one point and it didn't kill him. Stupid super charge lowering incoming damage.
-
Every gun has the possibility to be OP with the proper perks. Gozen-C can have the same roll
-
Not really, using snipers in pvp is generally quite awkward even with the lowest zoom scopes. There's an element of ability required. More than running around hip firing fusions and shottys
-
Got mine w double down, Field scout or high caliber rounds, & grenadier. Should I have rolled it more or what do you guys think
-
What song is playing?
-
Its not overpowered. This thread is dumb. You are dumb.
-
Why op..?? Gozen c a green sniper rifle same stats same magazin and can have this perk too and 1 shot with last shot.. So whats the point on ur thread
-
What perk let's you shoot through walls?
-
It has 3 rounds a mag. There are other guns that are op. Speer is not one of them.
-
Pussy is over powered also but no one is crying nerf on that huh?
-
What the funk is a twitch shot? And how are you shooting through walls
-
I wish i hit targets without aiming like u do
-
All I see on the forums these days are nerf this, nerf that, 31s are scrubs, 32s are elitists.
