[i]Please be honest Sniper mains (90% of this community), this isn't a Huntard rant. It's a discussion rather than a nerf callout.[/i]
[i]Yes, this is an opinion based poll, oh reader mine. Don't be too harsh with your opinions...[/i]
I am not asking for a sniper nerf, I think they require skill to use. What im asking for people to vote on is whether the BODY SHOT damage is too much.
• Its very easy to pick off damaged targets, even if they were only hit by one burst or round.
• Its become common to body shot and switch to primary to kill off an enemy. This has a quicker death time than two 1000-yard stare rounds to the body, especially with QuickDraw.
• Once you have been body shotted, you are vulnerable to the sniper and the other enemies (since your instantly low health).
I think the two shot body shot should stay because it's fair enough to get out of the way of a second sniper shot, I only think it's too much damage to be suddenly picked off from a random MIDA shot.
What do you guys think?

5 RepliesI don't think I've gotten a single one shot sniper kill yet, and have had more success jousting with enemy players using Mida. Considering I've been sniped constantly in this IB, including in maps that you'd think we're CQB maps, I can't see snipers being reduced in use any time soon. I would agree that it takes more skill to one (head)shot a player, especially on the move. I also think that I see an awful lot of snipers in the Crucible.....
