Iron Banner and Trials Snipers

Overall I enjoyed IB clash not because it was clash but the loot and everything was improved from the previous one. I didn't really get anything worthwhile keeping except 316 iron wreath with not bad perks. However the one thing that worries me is the IB and Trials snipers specifically. I don't understand why the IB and trials snipers are low impact ones when they come from pvp activities and should be a pvp based gear. The IB has the highest AA I'm fully aware of that but AA is not important on snipers like it is on other guns. Meanwhile vanguard vendor is selling a 1000-yard stare which is a pve vendor selling best possible sniper for pvp. Maybe people don't agree with me but I think pvp loot should be for pvp and pve for pve. Great example are the raid guns like ToM and the primaries like scout which are absolute junk in pvp but in pve raid they do their jobs as intended. There are guns like Nirwens Mercy which is fully pvp based and its a beast and thats how it should be like. But snipers are a main core of gameplay for pvp so as specials overall including shotgun and possibly fusion rifles after the December patch (fingers crossed). So why are the snipers specifically not worthwhile? Shotgun IB and trials are also decent with high impact and decent ROF(lower impact by 6 from conspiracy theory but a lot more ROF and range).

  • I think they intend them to be snappy sniper rifles, that reward precision, while not allowing a revive headshot. I loved the spear, hate the fact that it ended at y1... For me, it was the perfect sniper. I rolled it off final round, didn't need or want that. I prefer low AA and high impact. 1000yd is the best PvP sniper for me, but I wish it had less AA. Eirene doesn't have a scope that I like. I always preferred ambush. Basically those are the only 2 snipers that I use in PvP...
