I agree, but shotguns are a one shot kill up close, while snipers r only one shot to the head. That's what requires more skill. Plus, the maps in destiny r designed so that u can't just camp in one place and snipe easily. Shotguns u can hide, and as enemies come u just shoot them and they're dead. So really that why I think snipers require more skill than a shotgun. If u have any reasons why this is wrong then comment
