Most contraversial (for some) Year 2 sniper?

1000 yard stare (incredible aim assist)

1474

Eireen RR4 (Luck in the Chamber)

963

Other (Please add why)

173

EDIT: I have nothing against these guns, its that lots of people are screaming for nerfs EDIT 2: I'm not crying for a nerf, I'm not "salty" over these guns. I haven't gone to bungie saying "omg plz nerf snipers 2 OP". I've seen posts of people saying about Eireen or 1000YS and how they should be nerfed, I wondered how many people thought the same. I'm getting hate on this post not because I'm crying for a nerf or complaining about the guns, but because most of the people in this community hate for fun. EDIT 3: it's nice to see some people people are putting constructive comments instead of just hate. Also, I don't use shotguns in crucible, which most people think I do, and I don't actually believe that the 1000YS has that high aim assist, I'm just echoing what others are saying

    • Lol people complaining about a sniper that has only above-average aim assist because they can't blink shotgun their way to victory anymore since the meta has changed. Deal with it and adapt

        This thread cannot be real. You [u]salty[/u] guardians cannot be serious when you say a sniper that has an aim assist of [b]56[/b] is a much more serious problem than a [i]ONE SHOT KILL.[/i] And since when is 56 "[b]Crazy high[/b]"? When LDR had 49 Longbow has 51 and the bloody Shadow of Veils has [b][i][u]69[/u][/i][/b]. The New Monarchy Sniper has [u]69[/u] aim assist. Defiance of Yasmine has [u]69[/u] aim assist. Hereafter has about [i]70-something[/i]! People! Get the salt out of your eyes and see that a [i]one shot [/i]kill is a much bigger problem than you getting killed by a [b][u]sniper that's better than you![/u][/b] Note: [i]Before[/i] TTK dropped, 1000-Yard state was clocked in at about 70 something aim assist. I think this is where the confusion is. It is now at [b]56[/b]. Numbers via PlanetDestiny Database.

        • I use 1000 yard stare mainly because it can kill a revive in trials. Have not noticed the aim assist except once when I drag shot a guy

        • Is it me or has everyone started complaining about snipers since trials dropped? It's not the snipers fault that you kids suck and can't get close enough even with your shotty.

          • How many legendary snipers can snipe of a res nowadays? Now why complain about both of them? Do you want people to start using shotguns as primaries again?

              • 1000 yard state has less aim assist than HoW snipers but people think that it's too high, too op, and the end all be all sniper. Really? They got rid of FR snipers and added LiTC. That's the problem.

                    Isn't it funny how it went from "nerf handcannons, nerf shotguns waaa waaaa" now the snipers have completely taken over trials. Where before, at least there was a mix. I've been sitting her laughing because I've said it all along. Guess what, snipers will be getting a nerf now too and you only have you little whining bitches to blame. Have fun shittards

                          • Isn't it sad the most of the people who snipe have to all go for the sniper that can one shot someone on a revive? Why is that even a thing in a game? Also how can almost eliminating close quarters combat in favor of mid-long range, display that you have skill? I think that the crucible sandbox designer should ask his team to test snipers with ZERO aim assist, and then see how much it effects balancing in pvp.

                            • The TTK Iron Banner sniper has 79 AA. This really isn't anything new. Everyone just wants something else to complain about. Honestly it's a lot more frustrating to me getting one-body-shot killed by an Eirene RR4 because it means I was killed by luck and not skill.

                                • The guys I went flawless with this weekend referred to my Eireen as sniping training wheels. It's a pretty accurate statement.
