Longbow Archetype Snipers
Remember when the all-mighty Bungo removed Final Round on snipers, so that they couldn't one-shot kill to the body?
Remember when, only a few months later, Bungie introduced Luck in the Chamber on snipers, so that they COULD one-shot kill to the body??
Whose genius idea was that?!?!
Bungie essentially did the same thing in Rise of Iron.
They nerfed the impact on snipers in the Longbow, 1000-Yard Stare, LDR 5001 archetype, specifically so that these snipers couldn't consistently one-shot kill a Guardian in their super.
Then, only a month or two later, Bungie introduced snipers in the Longbow archetype that COULD consistently one-shot kill out of supers.
You should be noticing a theme here.
These are the things that are bringing Destiny nowhere.
EDIT:
I know that LitC can't oneshot body shot anymore.
The one-shot bodyshotting with LitC doesn't bother me, because it was fixed.
What bothers me is that Bungie ever though it was okay to do that.

8 RepliesUm, no. Most of the new snipers are in the Efrideet's Spear/Black Spindle/Zen Meteor class of snipers. They are high-impact/ low AA snipers that only have three round magazines. Yes they can snipe people out of supers, but at the cost of less ammo, less AA, and slower handling than the Longbow-class which always has a four-round mag, snappier handling and more AA.
