With the increase of 60% sniper flinch this nerf has all but killed any type of aggressive sniping. A play style since D1. It was already doing poorly with pulse rifles and scouts everywhere, now with this nerf it’s pretty much dead.
Furthermore, snipers have not been meta in at least a couple years. Shot guns and fusion rifles have been making up a large amount of special kills for a very long time now. Yet they’re about to buff shot guns next season and just nerfed snipers.
Makes zero sense to me. Just another nerf to what little amount of skill gap remains in the game.

Snipers are so broken. They need a massive aa nerf. But in reality I don't see Bungie keeping the change. Snipers give bad players kills and flinch aims for them so yeah I can't see this staying at all. Like I'm so use to 4-5 criting people with lmg and getting sniped and I've yet to get sniped while shooting in people in the head. It's wildly fun to not shoot somone into my head
