TL;DR at the bottom (Yw) You know what dominates the crucible? Snipers You know what is used more than anything else in the crucible? Snipers You know what should be nerfed because of this? Snipers Now don't get me wrong, I myself use snipers so I feel like I actually have a valid opinion in this matter. I like sniping, know why? It's real -blam!-ing easy, not just because this game has super high aim assist, but because there are perks you can get on snipers to INCREASE aim assist, making this simplistic task, mindlessly easy. Now I imagine some (all) of you snipers out there will disagree with me because snipers are a precise weapon, they are, but bungie made them too precise and powerful. Such as shotguns last year. I was there, I loved my matador and the action filled gameplay with both opposing sides rushing each other dueling it out man to man. But now... Everyone sits back and snipes. Where's the fun in that? I guess if the shotgun meta was something you called for a nerf on, but you arent calling for a nerf on this, I understand. It sucks using an easy gun to dominate a team. Now, it may seem like I'm just bashing with no solutions in sight, but fear not, here are some ideas to fix this boring meta. 1. Stop Rez-sniping all together, either increase immune time when revived, or make decrease sniper HS damage across the board so they cannot one shot anyone with an over shield. 2. Do not give ammo at the start of games, or, if you do, do not drop special throughout the match but start with full ammo 3.Greatly increase recoil on snipers 4. Buff something else *cough* shotguns, and in turn, keep snipers where they are 5. Remove hidden hand (the ultimate HS crutch) 6. Don't like my suggestions, come up with something better other than "stop whining" this is my first complaint post my entire time being apart of this toxic/cancerous community. 7. Make more counters to sniping, make it less effective at close range (not mid-long) 8. Make sniping like halo, if you get shot (should only be a headshot for this) you go out of your scope edit - spelling edit 2 - suggestion #5 edit 3- I knew that when making this post i'd see 4 types of people explicitly 1. Someone who agrees or disagrees with me but doesnt offer any solutions themselves 2. People who agree or disagree with me that offer real criticism and solutions (the mvps) 3. The trolls 4. the people who bring my stats into this arguement, my personal favorite because they have nothing to offer and have shit all against me :) edit 5- it seems most of you dont want a nerf (i was once like you as well inb4 year 1) and i understand why that may not seem like a good idea to you, I too believe buffing other weapons to create more diversity in the PvP atmosphere is a great idea edit 6 - if you havent read the entire post and start commenting absolute BS, just know you're a moron edit 7- suggestions TL;DR sniping should reward those who are good, weapon balance is almost spot on as of post April update, primaries need a buff, most popular suggestions for snipers 1.remove hidden hand 2. Increase flinch when being shot 3. Add scope sway
