Don't really snipe, I need to practice
-
High impact because no matter the game mode, one headshot kills self res, blade dancer, nova, and any revives.
-
May as well go low impact unless it's a game type where you can revive
-
High impact can shoot through shields
-
Pvp-low impact (unless skirmish/elimination) Pve -high impact

having possibly the Highest Rate of fire on a sniper (Subtle Nudge DN7) and now recently Efrideets Spear, I have to say I like Efrideets a lot more, my DN7 allows me a quick follow up shot and since I have damn near max stability on it I don't need to correct if the first shot was well placed or close enough (also got a 5 round mag) plus if I get head shots I can potentially get 5 kills a mag which is pretty good. Efrideets though with its short 3 round mag and low rate of fire forces me to choose my shots more carefully lest I waste a mag or potentially get sniped. Efrideets can one shot a self res warlock with the ram which is pretty damn useful especially on pantheon where dumbnuts self res in the sniper lane after getting killed. plus even if I only get a body shot with efrideets I can immediately switch to my primary like suros or a long range hand cannon or Another NITC and shoot them once or twice and get the kill.

Edited by ArcaneLeviathan: 7/29/2015 3:52:17 PMHigh Impact because: 1) you can 1 shot shielded enemies in the crucible. 2) the high damage output makes the defender panic allowing you to switch weapons for an easy kill (if you shoot the body) 3) I find that heavier scopes and a lower rate of fire helps me snipe better
