I've been sniping since I got Destiny. I've heard people complain about fusion rifles. Nerfed them. Shotties? Nerfed, and then nerfed again. It seems like people are wanting snipers to be nerfed as well? Why? Im not trying to start an argument I just want to hear it from someone who isnt a sniper. I think sniper kills (non-revive) are well earned. You are vunerable while ADS, you can do nothing really if someone rushes while you focus, and its a 100% hit or miss situation. A body shot when theyre behind cover, and you just used your nade is a wasted shot and happens more often than you think. So opinions? Should sniper rifles be nerfed? If so, why do you think that? Open to different opinions. :)
Note: I do think revive snipes are bs. Revive shot gunned is also bs.

Snipers really haven't changed much since year one, when very few complained about them. The highest base aim assist on a sniper was 69, this year it is 79. That's not that big of a jump. I just think that all the other guns have been nerfed so much that more people are gravitating towards snipers now, so it is much more common to be sniped now. People hate whatever guns they get killed by the most, so now it's snipers.
