Everyone who has played destiny as of recently knows this gun is ridiculously overpowered, very high aim assist along with low range scopes make this the best scout rifle, shotgun, sniper, why use anything else when you have a gun that can be used easily and efficiently in all ranges, mostly 1-shot kills. The decently high fire rate also makes using any other gun obsolete,. This gun should be renamed to be the 1-yard stare and it would probably be much more accurately represented. Please nerf or remove,, this has gotten as annoying as the thorn was in year 1.
I have no problem with this gun when it is used at sniper range, if it was used solely in that manner, I would not be posting something here, the problem is that I have seen alot of people use it at shotgun- auto rifle range. Sniping should be long range is all I am saying

[quote]Everyone who has played destiny as of recently knows this gun is ridiculously overpowered, very high aim assist along with low range scopes [/quote] Not overpowered. It has an Aim Assist of 56 (out of 100), and the scopes give it a MAX +10 AA, depending on the scope. Regardless, AA doesn't aim for you, it simply slows the reticle when hovering over an enemy, the higher the AA, the slower the reticle moves.

(Also HB and Shadow of Veils had higher AA but no one complained about them). The ROF is balanced with the impact, that is this entire archetype of mid-ROF, medium-high Impact sniper rifles. Sniper are fine where they are, especially 1K-YD Stare.
