Seriously. Why have I seen a drastic decrease in 1KYS's in crucible and Trials lately. Did everyone else get a memo that I didn't? I've just been dismantling them because of how awkward I found them in year 1. And what would constitute a godroll on these?
For reference, I'm running an Eirene (post LITC nerf) with firefly, lifeline and lightweight.

I loved my longbow in yr 1 plus I always thought it was stupid that the only sniper killing me in crucible was 1kys. Seeing ldr or longbow in the kill feed makes me smile now instead of get all salty that I died by the same gun over and over
-
Always loved my longbow, feels smoother to me than any other sniper, plus I got the same scope and middle column as in year one so it feels great to me. (Ambush snapshot)
-
Nostalgia I wouldn't say I'm after them, but if I found a good roll I'd use them.

2 RespuestasSheep go "Baaaa". Get back in line, Black Shee....errr BlackBeard. Its best to let the streamers choose your load out. Such decisions can be rather......complicated. ;)
-
"Dismantling them"? I haven't received 1 since they brought them to year 2. However, I enjoyed my ldr for most of '14-'15.

1 RespuestaBecause they're not good enough to use a primary?

1 RespuestaCan you get a longbow from the true meaning of war bounty ?

Editado por DiRT E DaNO: 6/1/2016 9:22:06 PMI have a max stability 1KYstare w/ trip tap, hidden hand, and TacSys.. But I wanted something new.. So when I finally got my LDR..w/ triple tap, firefly and Longview20..I was ectasitc!!! I can Max out the stability with Ambush or get a higher zoom with Eagleeye.. A good roll for my okay style.. Rarely use snipers in PVP..not my style and not very good at it lolz

It's basically the new flavor of the month. Some people prefer the aesthetics of them, buy they're basically the same rifle. There might some ha doing differences some prefer too.
-
Idk I just like mine because it came with ambush and unflinching. Better for pvp than the quest 1KYS which is all i had been using before

1. [b]Nostalgia[/b] - Both LDR and Longbow were highly desirable snipers in Y1, acquiring them now brings back good memories, or allows those that never got it in Y1 another chance. 2. [b]Sheep Effect[/b] - As people use it, more people follow suit 3. [b]Something "new"[/b] - People are getting bored of using 1KYS, so they feel they are diversifying (even though all the snipers fall in the high impact sniper archetype).

1 RespuestaI would like to try them because I've never had one before. Where do you get them?
-
In year 1 the snipers everyone used were LDR, Longbow, Efrideet and Her Benevolence. Those were the high impact snipers of choice for res sniping. So everyome has a lot of good memories with them. Now two of them are back, so of course people wanna find and use them. Tl,dr: nostalgia.
-
Since they have a lot higher aa then 1kys

1 RespuestaAlot of people are tired of the 1k stare too so theyre switchin it up. At least thats me [spoiler]even though i dont have a ldr or longbow kms[/spoiler]
-
I've always liked how the LDR felt. 1k stare and longbow are close to it.
-
Eh, my Longbow could be better. [spoiler]located with the hunter.[/spoiler]

Editado por tWZtD x23: 6/1/2016 7:39:51 PMI have 3..all elements and with awesome rolls..my reason is that i regret deleting mine in y1, then it was a must have for doing Skolas..lol

Longbow is pretty good for PvP. I got one I'm proud of on my warlock.
-
2 RespuestasNostalgia/placebo effect.
-
My longbow has max stability and triple tap. It's more suited for PvE but I like the feel of it so I use it in PvP
-
1 RespuestaMy Y-09 Longbow Synthesis has maximum stability and with decent perks, a good addition in PvP :)
-
Sheep. Got both, didn't hold as much ammo as Stillpiercer, used em as infusion.
-
2 RespuestasThey are all about the same apart from rolls you can get. I personally use longbow because it is aesthetically pleasing! Sexy af!
-
2 RespuestasI think people are just bored of the 1000 Yard Stare. Still, I have a Longbow with Longview, Unflinching, Underdog and a choice of Perfect Balance, Snapshot or Smallbore and it's awesome.
