Sniping in D2
I just finished the ornament quest that requires you to hit 20 precision hits and 50 killing blows in the crucible with a sniper and it made me realise how of snipers feel.
The maps are quite small and really good sight lines are rare. In most situations I felt at a disadvantage having a sniper equipped. Because even at long ranges 120 HCs can hit you for high flinch and damage.
Of course it’s not a problem if you are a quick scope flick and drag shot pro but that’s not the majority.
I thought I was just because I was bad at sniping
[spoiler]wich probably played a part, but I would say I have some experience, since snipers were all I used in D1[/spoiler]
So I went back to Destiny 1 and straight up hit headshots left and right and finished the game with a 3+ K/D using a double sniper load out. Sniping just felt so much better.
What do you guys think of the current place of sniping?

2 RepliesSnipers themselves are fine. The flinch nerf was needed. If you are getting shot in the face repeatedly, you shouldn't be able to easily nail headshots. Full stop. The real issue is the maps that don't favor sniping. Instead of complaining so hard about weapons, we should be pushing for new maps or at least bringing back larger maps like Equinox.
