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?

I am just tired of all those nerf cries ... Snipers have not changed since year one. Shadow of Veils had more Aim Assist then 1000KYS... People are just crying because the last trials map was a sniper friendly map and they probably went in with their shotguns (not saying that OP did) and did not get any kills across the court like they did before TTK. If nerfs continue like this, one day you won t be able to play any weapon class consistently anymore and all your gun fights will be RNG :( Those simply are the Destiny mechanics. They made the game this way. If you do not like it, you can play battlefield, COD or Halo if on xbox. Destiny IMO is a really user- and beginnerfriendly shooter. And Aim Assisst is not Auto Aim ... It merely increases the stickiness of the radicule on your target. Only thing it makes easier IMO is swipe-scoping which most people can not do anyways. And about the hit boxes: they are inconsistent. I have gotten many headshots that should habe been bodyshots (like on the neck) and I have gotten bodyshots where I was like 99% on the head. The lag is strong in this game my friend! Do not underestimate its power!
