Return the Thorn to its former glory just for Trials, and you'd see snipers/TLW almost disappear overnight. Return the Hopscotch Pilgrim, to its former glory and you'd see snipers/TLW users cut in half. The most often used anti-snipe gun now is the scout. The scout user has to make 4 head shots to win that fight, the snipe just one. The Thorn would put snipers on the run with just one hit. A couple episodes of that, and they give it up. The Hopscotch pilgrim could kill at snipe ranges with two trigger pulls (6 bullets). Even without a kill, it would do enough damage to put snipers off sniping. Bungie removed all of the best anti-snipe guns in the game. So, here we are...

  • There was a counter to snipers back in vanilla it was called Fusion rifle. They nerfed that weapon type so hard it's not even funny.

  • Yea they over did it when the data said it was both the "Most satisfying weapon to get kills with" and the "Most frustrating weapon to get killed by." Shotguns were on the chopping block next but not as severe. We'll see what happens with snipers. I'm sure Bungie is trying to please the average player without losing the sniper only Trials players.
