Hard scoping isn't skill

Hard scoping a doorway at head level isn't skill. It's just as bad as camping corners with shotguns. Taking quick precision shots is skill. Edit:So much hate, guess I'm calling people out lol and I'm not salty btw. This is a PSA Edit 2:Do not compare sniping in Destiny vs sniping in real life. You can't even lay down in Destiny lol plus future, aliens, space magic Edit 3: As long as everyone is aware hard scoping a doorway waiting for people to run by is dirty and not skill. I'm ok with people doing it. Edit 4: So much hate. Y'all must think it's either hard scope or quick scope. No you can scope in, but waiting 5+ seconds at head level for someone to walk In from their spawn. That's hard scope and dirty. Edit 5: used spell check to fix my ignorance

    Hardscoping is how snipers were intended to be used. This isn't COD. Real life snipers don't run in screaming their head of shouting: AND HE GOES FOR THE TRICKSHOT!!!!!

    • I hated the way shotguns were used in year 1 But nothing is more infuriating then someone just hard scoping a door way, getting the first kill And then having their buddies rush up But That's destiny Yowell

    • You're right it does take more skill to pop out no scopes and close quarter snipes But let's face it 99% of the community will run to the easiest thing to get kills with. That used to be a shotgun. Now with so many last words and the shotgun nerf it's hard scoping doorways Makes for the most boring gameplay imaginable and is why I've stopped playing skirmish.

    • Running through the same doorway 25 times and getting killed every time, doesn't take much skill either.

        Yeah using a sniper how they're made to be is dumb.
