Above all else it just takes time. Go in to crucible with a experienced friend to teach you maps and little tricks like drop shotting. ( when in a firefight crouch down real quick and back to make it hard for the enemy to get head shots)

Always be aware of your surroundings. Don't be afraid, show some confidence - fear in a firefight is like fear while driving. It'll make you too nervous to win Keep moving Find a weapon you like and stick to it while you get your skills up. As much as people hate them, if you like hand cannons use them! Stick with a team mate and help each other get the kills you need. Get a few shots in and melee. Works most of the time. If you prefer auto rifles, shoot a few enemies then toss a grenade. Chances are you'll kill at least one.

Use a shotgun. It's like cheating without the lag switching.

Map knowledge know how maps flow, anticipate spawn locations (that is where the enemy comes from, use it to your advantage) Always keep your eye on the radar and learn how it works so you can get the jump on your enemy. Learn how to strafe so your not a stationary target. Don't be afraid to run and take cover, live to win the gunfight. Far to often people don't disengage from a gunfight they are losing or about to lose. Disappearing behind cover can sometimes give you the advantage. Don't stand there and continue to be a bullet sponge. Practice in PVE. Sound Odd? Well work on those head shots and it will carry over. Critical hits usually determine the outcome of most gunfights.

my biggest downfall: sprinting. [spoiler]don't do it. it just speeds up imminent death. [/spoiler]

Play more . Practice

Drink red bull Listen to daft punk Profit

Just gotta play it more. I made myself play iron banner today. I was terrible the first 5 matches but the next 4 I improved quite a bit. Guess its all about practice!

Leeroy Jenkins! No seriously try take on multiple opponents at a time. Your kd will definitely drop but your skill will improve

It depends on your weaponry, heavily. By that, I don't mean which weapon you choose specifically, but moreso your weapon's class in a nutshell. Pulse rifles are good for medium range and taking attention, handcannons are good at punishing mistakes such as not firing on the handcannon weilder, auto rifles are meh, but are good for short/medium range-ish and can give you more attention than pulse rifles, and scout rifles are useful in linear hallways where you can see from one side to the other (Aka Pantheon halls). Secondary wise, sniper's are generally the go to. With a 1 shot capability, you can dispatch multiple enemies if good enough without putting yourself into a bad situation. Honestly, shotguns aren't bad, but you need to make sure your playstyle fits that of a shotgunner. What I mean by this is, you need to be able to be quick on the draw; and capable of closing the distance between you and your enemy [b]quickly.[/b] The closer the better. Another instance is if you are a titan, and have armor of light. Shotguns work excellently in that controlled environment, and allow you to easily take down multiple enemies who choose to rush you. A note though is that if you are defender; Helm of Saint 14 is a must. The ability to blind any enemy who enters is too good to pass up. If that isn't your class, then, oh well. When it comes to heavies, usually it depends on the game mode, which influences the enemies choice in weapons. If it's elimination, expect more rockets than lmg's. If it's control, expect an even mix of both. I usually don't inspect my enemies on other gamemodes, but it's definitely crucial in Trials of Osiris. Knowledge is power, no? Anywho, there's any few tips in regards to weapons. Honestly, the reason I didn't go into specific weapons is so that you can figure out which weapons you like and explore. Be perceptive of different weapons, and always mindful of perks. If one perk seems just a tad useless, switch the armor/weapon or reroll. That's all I'll say for now. Best of luck in pvp, remember to keep calm and get heavy ammo!

Reasonant weapon and dark chaos blade, then cut off your dick to remove dignity

1: create hunter 2: get a exotic handcannon, red death or vex 3: aim said weapon at the head of enemy and fire 4: gather super 5: unleash super (preferably golden gun) 6: disintegrate foes. 7: repeat steps 2-6 8:????????? 9: profit [spoiler]10: i just wanted a 10[/spoiler]

Here is a couple of ideas: 1. Don't do PvP. I'm in your position. I have never won a round in trials. PvP is not for everybody. 2. Get lucky and don't play against the OP Exotic primaries.

Don't be afraid to run away from an engagement you might lose. Don't camp one single spot, keep moving Aim for the head Aim grenades at peoples feet ( unless its a sticky) Find a weapon [b]you[/b] like and feel comfortable with Don't rely on the thorn in case it gets nerfed Find a good team that communicates Know when to rush and know when your outnumbered Play the objective Try and have fun

Practice? I don't do PVP myself but I think the only way to get better at it is constant trial and error in order to gain experience. Learn the maps. The objectives ( if there are any ). The spawn points when players die. The spawn points for ammo. Most important of all learn player behaviour, where are the camping spots for snipers, blind spots for campers with shot guns, which weapons are used most, which weapons are most effective on each map, how to move around each map quickly and efficiently, learn how to gain head shots on a highly agile target. You'll eventually get better if you keep at it, thing is you need want it. I have no interest in PVP ( I'm a story line, explorer gamer who has absolutely no competitive spirit ) so my heart will never ever be in PVP and I'll never be able to get to the appropriate level.

Practice, practice, practice. Its like lifting weights. You have to work to get to a level, then work to maintain.

Play with good people listen and take there advice and don't get frustrated. just keep playing and you'll get better. I went from 5 kills a game to 15 to 25 kills a game and I'm still trying to get better

Rumble matches help, or just practice practice
