Alright here is a few things I think could make No Land Beyond better.
There are two issues everyone seems to have with this sniper rifle which is the bolt action and the iron sights. Now personally I like the iron sights and a lot of my friends who use this weapon (yes, in PvP) say the sights really aren't as bad as everyone makes them out to be. So I will not be talking about that.
Instead what I think could improve this gun is.
1. More ammo.
2. Increase bolt action speed later in weapon development.
[b]More Ammo. [/b]
The weapon has low ammo. Even if the ammo glitch is removed it still has low ammo. I know it is a sniper rifle but it is a primary too and primary weapons should have a moderate ammo amount.
[b]Increase bolt action speed later in weapon development.[/b]
Now if you are a guardian and you have been using high tech weapons then an older weapon may take longer for you to use (hence why you are slow with the bolt action) however as time went on you would become more used to the weapon and should be able to use that bolt action much faster.
Therefore, I think the exotic perk should also increase the speed of the bolt action.

Eagle Scout, student body president, and regular blood donor Mike Brown was on his way back from his volunteer shift at the soup kitchen when suddenly Neo-Na.zi #$%$ Grand Wizard and climate-skeptic Darren Wilson saw the glow of his halo. He stepped out of his gas guzzling Hummer and made chase. Mike Brown, weighed down by his backpack full of Nobel Peace Prizes and handwritten letters to grandma, was soon overtaken by the Aryian Nation Member. The only escape was across the street, but alas, there was no crosswalk. Faced with certain death or breaking the law, the straight A student made his last stand. He attempts to reason with his attacker but the illiterate racist murderer only has ears for white supremacy speeches and Mein Kampf passages. "Any last words?" said Darren Wilson through a mouthful of chewing tobacco. Mike Brown looks his executioner in the eye, puts his hands up clearly indicating his surrender and says "World Peace". "Screw Black People!" shouts Darren Wilson as he unloads his fully automatic assault rifle. If not for the Republican Party he may have survived, but the skinhead's extended high capacity magazine, unfettered by their legislation unloads hundreds of rounds into the Harvard bound, endangered species advocate.

I think people are asking for the wrong things. It should have its 2.5x crit multiplier that all snipers have, not the 1.8x it currently does.
-
Bungie needs to make nlb do solar,void, and arc damage so people might use it for PvE
-
Wolf Pack rounds. *drops the mic, and walks off*
-
BUNGIE needs to get rid of it.
-
There's a glitch to denied it First step shoot Second step reload Third step change weapons fast
-
Best way to improve this weapon is to turn it into shards to complete a good guns progression
-
No one cares
-
I agre with the second one although I think we shoukd be able to change the scopes like we can on other guns. So people who would like a scope can have one and people that like iron sites can keep that too
-
Reduce iron sights movement and put unflinching would be even better. Increase overall damage and put a luck in the chamber or final round so one bullet can one shot someone in crucible.
-
It could be a little bit better but I do fine with it. Last week my friend and I went into doubles squirmish at the anomaly with NLB and I went 15 and 2 (he went 8 and 6). All it really needs is faster rate of fire.
-
best way is make it not shoot just a trophy

Edited by MoonRust: 3/25/2015 8:01:35 PMI personally think no land beyond should stay as it is. The concept behind this weapon is to give a playstyle to a small group of people that like run and gun (agility perk) and precision kills. The scope of this weapon is much easier to aim than a normal sniper as it has an normal zoom like other primaries (you can actually see the surrounding when you are scoped in) Plus it is a one shot precision kill, like Galbatron pointed, this gun is made for one shot kill and will penalize you if you missed the headshot. This is the whole purpose why this weapon has such a slow fire rate, if you buff its fire rates, everyone will start using it in pvp simply because its aims almost like a scout riffle and it one shot people..... Exotics weapon are not made to be OP, they are made to give people their own way of playing.

I've used no land beyond in the crucible and all I have to say is I agree with the more ammo part, it's already a 2 hit kill 1 hit kill to the head, this gun is meant to be one of the guns for the really really accurate people,
