No to one shot body shots. Even if it was 5 seconds the reload would be too much. Body shots are just too easy to get.
However make it bolt action, keep the thermal + suppression(I assume this works like titans grenades), raise magazine size to 3-4 and swap field scout with skip rounds and I think we've got ourselves a sniper
[spoiler][b][u]OR[/u][/b] Equip this in the heavy slot, and lose the thermal through walls and you've got a unique exotic[/spoiler]
Edit: Actually now that I've thought about it this would make one bad ass exotic heavy. But only 2-3 shots per heavy pick up in crucible.

He said it's a heavy.

This sounds suspiciously like a buffed no land beyond. You sure you are in the right thread? XD

NLB is fine and def doesn't need a buff. A new heavy would be cool though I think, and a suppressor sniper would be cool too. I just said bolt action, mostly if it was a special weapon, so its not OP. Suppressing someone's jump and then being able to follow up too quick would be terrible for balance. A NLB style bolt action animation would balance it, especially if you had to lower the weapon and couldn't stay zoomed.

Edited by gcw0068: 6/8/2015 2:31:56 AMWell technically I didn't say it was a special... I see how that would work. But then it'd just not be as interesting. Also- I added a Warning feature. And keep in mind, if you miss you're waiting a really long time to shoot again. And you can only engage one foe per three seconds. Also, good snipers should be able to hit the head. Even decent snipers should be able to.

If that was the design, I would include a buffed version of QuickDraw that allows for you to QuickDraw to your next weapon as well, to allow for some advantage from the suppression, but not too much

The person suppressed gets the QuickDraw buff?
