[quote]I found a video online about tips for crucible, I'll try to find it.... In the video, He says that one does more damage firing from the hip, and there is a damage reduction for ads. I didn't notice this during game play. I this true? I can't see why Bungie would have this game mechanic...[/quote] There are weapons that give a bonus to damage as perks, however. During crucible none of these bonus's matter because everything is equalized. A level 15 rifle does the same as a level 4 rifle. [b]however[/b]. During [u]IRON BANNER[/u] Your weapon and gear [i]matters[/i]. This is a rare event that usually only lasts 2 hrs where gear and stats make a difference in conpetitive multiplayer.
