Destiny Trials Highlights

Here is a little highlights video that I made for some fun. I hope you guys enjoy it. EDIT: One stupidly common comment is that I am missing most of my shots, but aim assist is pulling them back onto the targets head. 1) That's not how aim assist works, it has been tested over and over. If the shot isn't on someones head when you fire (Assuming there isn't any latency issues) then the shot will miss. Here is a good (and entertaining) demonstration of what happens when you are right next to a targets head and fire off shots - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XF-epOp02b0 2) Some of these shots may look like they miss if you watch them at full speed, but when you slow them down you'll see that in the frame that I fire the gun, the reticle is on their head. This is because I offten do what is called "drag scoping" where I'll aim near someones head, then in one flick of the thumbstick I'll correct my aim and as the crosshair passes over the targets head I fire. A very good example of this is in the second clip at 31 seconds. The only shots that to me look kinda iffy are the collats, which don't have anything to do with aim assist, I've had the same odd collat registration with several other snipers with wildly varying AA stats. It's just Destiny being wierd, but as collats are pretty far and few inbetween it's not really a big problem IMO. For the people that keep saying I'm missing most of my shots, please timestamp them. I will be amazed if you can find 3-4 cases of this throught the entire video. Every single time someone has said that I missed shots, when asked they haven't provided any examples of when this has happened. Also, think before you type because... well http://imgur.com/EVJJTSq [spoiler]This post used to have a pretty clickbaity title "how proper snipers use a sniper" so don't attack older posts addressing this, they are justified. I named it that simply because it would get people to watch and comment on this post. I know it's scummy but IDGAF I'm an attention whore[/spoiler]

  • I'll be the first to say I'm an awful PvP player. I've played countless matches in crucible & therefore, because I suck I get killed a lot. Most of my deaths are credited to shotgunners (players that don't know what a primary weapon is & would like to demonstrate they have the skill of a 5 year old gamer just starting out) & snipers. 8 out of 10 snipers I'm killed by do either sit in one spot & if they don't they still stay in the same general area. Sniping takes very little skill at least from my own experience. I think the only reason I get killed by snipers as often as I do is because I'm just not running through the lane faster than it takes for the sniper to get the shot off. P.S. - enter all the childish, immature "git gud scrub" replies -
