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.

Aim down sights, look at where your reticule is and then put a little bit of blu tac on your screen at that point. No more aiming down sights :)
-
Practice.
-
Final round perk makes any hit with a snipe kill you

I was over at a guys house who showed me a very cheap way. He cut a small red circle from the plastic wrapper on a coke bottle, and glued it to his target snipe point. He could get very close to your crit before aiming as there was a red translucent dot on his tv. He also had a modded controller with quick scope buttons.

I played a lot of CoD plus Destiny has a ton of aim assist.
-
Part of it is instinctively aiming towards the head every time you aim; it needs to the point you aren't even thinking of where you are aiming.
-
Practice practice practice [spoiler]also learn to drag shot, If you're not sure what that is YouTube it[/spoiler]
-
Just lead the target, I'm awesome with head shots in crucible with my icebreaker. and like the other greats, I owe my skills to halo
-
Practice.

Because you're just standing there begging to get your head blown off.
-
Shot I know man. W. T. F. Just crazh

Edited by Juanson TNL: 6/14/2015 12:30:29 AMIts all in the trigger finger Edit: all you have to do is believe when i snipe i scope in and pull its either the first or second shot they go down just be confident
-
Honestly I just think it's good reaction time. I run the map and look for people. Once I see them I can scope and pop them in less than a second. I'm so fast because I've done it for years and it's muscle memory.
-
The fact that I can snipe decently in Destiny (and can't snipe for shit in other games) makes me fear people who can actually snipe lol
-
Knowing terrain and setting the reticle where heads will be is biggest thing
-
Practice makes perfect :)
-
Aim assist plus fast reflexes
-
Cause I'm too good

Edited by BACTERIA SOUR: 6/14/2015 12:03:40 AMI was terrible at it. Just got the feel for it and now have head markers (a reference point to set my sight head level) on most maps. Edit: a good trick is to watch your teammates off in the distance and set your sight at their head level. Perfect headshot every time.

It's called [i]Praedyth's Reveng[/i]e or [i]Efredeet's Spear.[/i]

Practice.

Edited by Loyal Au Mort : 6/13/2015 11:09:29 PMCompleting the Thorn Bounty as a Hunter *shudders*. My void LDR and I became very close. I should also add that I am the worst user of a shotgun in the history of the game. Rather than have a shotgun equipped, I would be better off collecting slugs and throwing them at Guardians while calling them names.

i dont get into my grove untill i get twitchy then i kill people like crazy, i guess it just depends on the person
-
I get my skill from halo only cuz the reticles are like the same maybe mess with the sensitivity

Edited by One Death, Lord Of Xibalba: 6/13/2015 11:55:58 PMDepends on your anxiety levels. My buddy can't snipe for [i]shizzle[/i] because he gets all nervous to even take a shot at the enemy. Theres only a small chance for error. Use your sorroundings and knowledge of the map to understand combat situations to your advantage. Black hammer >Ice Breaker 👈

The basic idea here is to aim down the sight before your opponent, usually it's the one who shot first.
