10 PvP Tips for beginners.

1. No matter how much you like COD, Destiny is not run and gun. 2. Use your radar. It is your best friend. 3. Play with friends, since there is no open communication in matchmaking... you will miss out on call outs and fun times screaming at each other because you just got blade danced on twice in a row! 4. Learn to aim at the face accurately. Doing body damage is a joke conpared to consecutive headshots from any weapon. 5. Rockets are great but the real damage is done with the MGs. 6. When heavy ammo is available, you snag it as fast as possible. Keeping it out of your opponents hand is key. 7. Strategize your attacks. Just running out in the open all the time will get you mowed down by experienced players, pick the fights you know you can win. 8. If you suspect someone is around the corner camping with a shotty... they probably are. 9. Do not waste supers on just one person... time your special for maximum effectiveness. 10. Control zones, this is not camping. This is effectively controlling a strongpoint on the map where the enemy has to come to you, but you have the advantage.

  • Weapon-wise, I enjoy auto-rifles the most. Consistent damage at midrange will almost certainly get you a kill against those pesky shotgunners before they get close enough for the one shot kill. Personally, and I may get laughed at for it, my favorite auto-rifles are the Saharas. Maximum rate of fire with decent damage per round at its maximum range (which isn't far) puts me at an advantage 1 on 1. Which brings me to the next point, pay attention to your weapon's upgrade tree. The Sahara auto-rifle is good, but the recoil is unbelievable. If you can find one with a stability modifier (2 modifiers would be even better), you will turn into a headshot machine with very little effort. Just my two cents.
