Longbow Synthesis Y-09, LDR 5001
missing these crispy snipers alot any one rolled with shortgaze was god tier
Forever Hoping to see my babies again
(make longbow a kinetic sniper)
-
😢 I went back to d1 to see them the sniper fights we had! 😭
-
2 RepliesAachen lr2 they have short gaze and snapshot it feels almost the same...almost
-
4 RepliesLongbow, Ltd, 1k Stare, efrideets spear d2 sniper just don’t come close. Supremacy is the closest you’ll get maybe even the dreaming city sniper. Even if they were brought in they would still be not as good just like TLW. Weapon handling has been lowered in general in d2. But then you have oddball weapons like midnight coup that seem to handle better than any d1 hand cannon, could be that I’ve just gotten use to it but fatebringer feels like trash compared to MC.

1 ReplyI miss those snipers so much. The Long Goodbye feels really good though.
-
Efrideets spear. Oooh baby...
-
Ew please don't bring this meta back

1 ReplyI remember the sniper meta in d1 (ice breaker flashbacks)

7 RepliesEdited by zxionisus: 4/22/2019 1:36:19 AMI was thinking the same thing yesterday. I was looking at my D1 loadout in Ishtar Legacy and my Warlock had 4 snipers in the special slot - one for each element and one specifically for crucible. (Event Horizon, 1000-yard Stare, LDR, and Devils Dawn.). I loved snipers in D1, especially 1000-Yard - that gun was fun.) I don’t think I have any snipers in use in D2 except whisper. That’s just sad.
-
Final round body shots were the craziest. At the beginning of each trials round you would hear players emptying out the clip to get down to the last bullet. In D2 I have a Long Shadow with an ADC Rex scope that is a short range combat scope. It is the best PvP sniper I have been able to find as it has Snapshot on its roll.
-
Why would we want to go back to shit mode where 10/12 people were scoping hallways all match every match?
-
I'm by no means good with a sniper, but lately been running against players that are pretty good. I think bungie made sniping less forgiving in d2. Good players that can really snipe have gotten good at it, while marginal players still struggle.
-
Aachen-LR2 = Longbow
-
Doesn't matter, because they won't be anywhere near as good on D2. This is a place where most good weapons come to die.
-
1 ReplyDude i had a LDR 5001 with shortgaze (with option of ambush), snapshot (with option of Quickdraw), last resort and hidden hand. I cant even imagine how good it would be on pc
-
Edited by Hawpy: 4/22/2019 1:46:36 PMTry The Long Goodbye, it's the most natural-feeling Sniper the game has to offer, with the second-lowest zoom stat of all Snipers. Plus it has great perk combinations for both PvP and PvE.

1 ReplyThey would be trash in D2
-
meh, supremacy still beats these any day :)
-
We’re not just missing the best snipers from D1, D2 snipers feel clunky, spend five minutes on D1 with a sniper and see the difference, they’re so much better.
-
1 ReplyJust used my LDR yesterday for fun. Has ambush, snapshot, and hidden hand. Good stuff
-
2 RepliesLoved sniping in d1 and miss my 1kys, but even if they brought them back, they would never be the same. Sniping in d2 is shite. The kickback from flinch is insane even with enhanced unflinching, base stability on snipers is 30% less across the board, smaller hitbox and crappy target acquisition. You're better off aping
-
Efrideet’s Spear and 1000 Yard Stare.
-
Did you really just post this without mentioning 1k?
-
That first year was awesome when double down for ammo was an active perk. I had a Longbow and I think it carried 32. 16 normal and 32 with double down. Of course, then came the double down nullification and the reduction of Sniper ammo across the board.
-
5 RepliesWhat was that one year 2 dead orbit scout rifle from D1 called? I used it for awhile but forgot the name of it. I'd love to see that again.
-
Efrideets spear is what I miss most.
-
I'd mention the Maxim Sniper but year 2 players will not get this item.
