Sniping is something that in my opinion, requires an insane amount of skill and nerve (panicking when somebody's shooting at you). There are sniper rifles that make the job 10K easier tho. For me is Praedyth's Revenge. The super high fire rate, low zoom scope and the 6 bullet magazine are worth 10 black hammers to me (in PvP of course).
Which is your favorite sniper for PvP? Why? What percs does it have?

LDR 5001 is great, all you need in crucible is low range scope with high impact and it's all but over.

Either that one that pierced walls or Icebreaker. With Icebreaker you don't need to keep going for green boxes. And, the explosion animation is pretty fun. You get to watch Sunsingers go on fire three times. (When you kill them once by setting them on fire, then they revive by setting themselves on fire, then you kill them again by setting them on fire)

Final Boss. Holds six rounds and fires pretty fast. As long as you hit headshots the other perks really don't matter.

Preydyths revenge. Shoots fast, hardly any recoil and a six round mag. It's perfect for pvp

Praedyth's Revenge is probably the best PvP sniper. Double tap body shot = win. I've not found anything better. Though admittedly I don't play much crucible. Mostly just for the Thorn bounty.

LDR seems to be able to shoot through walls. I've seen it happen and my friend has it and said he can do it on some maps. So there's that, if it's true. I love my sniper, broken truth-LR1, but its garbage without field scout. Praedyth's revenge is probably the best PVP sniper out there.

I like Praedyth's Revenge. Very high stability and a 6 round mag.

I have been using black hammer. Honestly I thought it was going to suck because it's only 3 shots and slow fire rate (i only had that and ice breaker on my character and didn't feel like going to the vault) but I have been doing pretty good with it - it's on my gunslinger though and chains of woe goes with it nicely. It depends on if you are going for exotic or legendary though - I would rather use broken truth (dead orbit sniper) because the one I have has clown cartridge and field scout (6-8 rounds) + that frees up my primary for an exotic (last word, thorn, hardlight, or multitool).

LDR 5001. If you get it from the vanguard it has armor piercing rounds so you can shoot through walls and cover. Also it has unflinching which comes in handy more then you would think for pvp. Use the ambush scope and your set.

Praedyth's Revenge without a doubt. I'm good at sniping and typically land a headshot on the first shot, but the high fire rate and the 6 round mag (like you said) with super low recoil are all the backup I need if I miss that first shot.

I have to do PvP for the Thorn bounty so I glad to hear the Praedyth is the way to go

Pradyeaths revenge by far
