So im sure that we've all noticed that this new meta in destiny is pretty much just everyone hardscoping with the 1000yd stare archtype of sniper. Well yes, sniping takes more skill than shotgunning, i still think that it should be looked at. As of right now, a 167 body shot from 1000yd stare takes away roughly 84% of a guardians health. A body shot from black spindle takes 90%. So my proposal to fix to snipers is this:
Keep precision damage the same.
Bring body shot damages values down to roughly these numbers:
Praedyths revenge archtype: 107
Yasmin archtype: 120
1000yd archtype: 137
Spindle archtype: 145
Also:
Lower aim assist (AA) on all snipers by 10.
Nerf AA boosted by hidden hand from 25 to 15.(on snipers only)
Increase pain wobble granted by high caliber rounds perk. This would make HCR a viable choice on primary weapons if you wish to challenge snipers. Add suggestions below. Keep in mind that these are my opinions.
Edit: Not crying nerf to AA. More concerned about bodyshot damage. I use a hidden hand 1000yd stare myself, but im just saying that a slight nerf would be ok. I dont want to see snipers nerfed into the ground
