They say it doesn't exist but in point blank with someone not spamming any shots, all of them miss!

  • It's not what most call bloom... it's the fact that they made HCs have a cone of accuracy that widens with each consecutive shot spammed. Idk how wide the cone starts off, but that's why shots miss sometimes for no apparent reason.

  • Even the first shot can miss. Even consecutive shots with long breaks between can miss. Bloom is a seperate issue. My main contention is with the RNG accuracy of singly fired bullets. The video link in the original post has a great explanation and great video evidence.

  • Is a gun firing with a cone of accuracy not RNG? Does it not mean that bullets can fly in other directions and miss? The cone is always there, it only widens the spread further when spamming shots. Not that difficult of a concept.

    Yah, I take time when I shoot and I don't spam for the purpose of avoiding missed shots- I wait about 2-3 long seconds before each shot to make sure the gun is cooled down and so on. Idk what happened yesterday, check my recent stats, I don't normally average that low consecutively. Even on a bad day I usually always break even. [spoiler]im blaming lag for this run. [/spoiler]

  • I truly don't care about kd unless it's someone talking trash or wanting something nerfed for being "op." Destiny has it's days of lag and days where you don't play as well as usual for some reason. But bloom? It exists as a rounded answer practically, the cone accuracy causes shots to randomly fire around a target... imagine hip-firing a sniper in CoD, that's a little bit worse than the cone accuracy. Stability and range have effects on the cone though. Personally, I use TLW since I really feel like I'm using a crutch if I use a shotgun so to combat them, I use TLW for now. 1/2 the time I get the 3 headshots to kill but the other half is when the sights are on their heads but the bullet flies around them. That's the cone accuracy, the reason why I still die by shotguns. I'd enjoy using other weapons like the first curse just to have fun but with how snipers were the meta and now the shotguns are again, can't quite stand much a chance against them with underwhelming guns.

  • No problem, usually get hate for trying to be honest xD And I've had numerous imagos but none were good rolls haha. Use a skeletor key on wannabe nexus strike.

  • I shall, luckily you met a non salty person today, and thanks for helping me understand cone accuracy. You rock, and I look forward to sending salty guardians back to the forums because of our "OP" hand cannons with you!
