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.

It's about adjustment. Some players line up shots, while others just swing the rifle across the screen at the right moment. Watch my recent triple down vid above. The first is a slow aim followed by an instinctive aim. The third I just guesstimate where the opponent is running and swing the rifle along with him and fire. My reaction was more of suprise that after the first two went down, a third person decided to run across.
