Dude I'm looking back at year one when everything was so op. Longbow has a literal 20 rounds with 6 in mag. 123 SYZYGY has 42!!! In the mag! 42!!! Just makes me remember how much more reliable weapons were in year 1
I just read your interview on Bungie and followed the link to your videos. Outstanding means and methods and what seems to be a very patient attitude. Your way of teaching and explaining is very impressive and I thank you for your time to provide a video that is easy to learn from. I suck at the crucible but do regularly try to learn to be better. I look forward to watching all your videos and spreading the word about your channel. Thank you
The growth between this content and what TV puts out now is like night and day. He's so much more engaging now that I feel like he could redo this series and it'll still take off!
Thanks for taking the time to make this vid man. I'm an older gamer who has a love for gaming since the days of Tank Battle, Tempest, and Asteroids. My first gaming system was the NES, then it was on to Genesis, Super NES, Turbo Grafx 16, Jaguar, PlayStation, PS2, Dreamcast, Xbox, the 360, and now PS4. You get the picture. Games today have certainly evolved, and younger (and older) players with them! But I have a few different hobbies/talents. I don't get to game as much as I'd like to. Until lately, there were days between my gaming sessions. Since getting my PS4 this past Christmas, I have a renewed interest and I have a blast playing these newer games! BUT...I'm not in the same category as most other players. In playing Destiny, I have (unfortunately) come across some downright snobbish and A-Holey gamers. More not-so-nice ones than welcoming and helpful ones (sad but true). It almost makes me NOT want to play Destiny at times! So I'm trying to get better at it because I really enjoy the game. I won't dare step into The Crucible yet until I get better. I am at Level 40, and my light level is around 215. I know I need to bump that up a few for sure. I read about your helpful vids and now i have some renewed enthusiasm! Sorry for the 'novel'-and thanks again!
+Hj 2015nine Thanks so much for that-I appreciate it! I was practicing with a Scout Rifle most of the afternoon! Lol! I'll look you up on PSN, but my gamertag is different...
If you like those high fire rate pulse rifles (i.e. 123 SYZYGY, Oversoul Edict), then you should give Praedyth's Timepiece with perfect balance a try. It's unreal in PvP.
Will Jo The Timepiece just has solid perks. I always run the first sight with perfect balance. You can get kills that you wouldn't believe with that accuracy. On top of that, the Secret Round perk is just SOOO GOOOOOOD. It's description is completely wrong. What it does is it returns one round to the magazine if you land all three shots from a burst, effectively boosting your magazine by 50%.
Michael Montes thanks for the extra tip, what do you think is the most effective range for the Timepiece? my Evergreen has ridiculous range so it wrecks in Shores of Time against snipers.
Michael Montes I honestly run with field scout usually on Timepiece. The recoil is so manageable mainly because it's straight up and down and not side to side.
Just wanted to say thanks. I never was the best sniper and relied upon Shotguns and Hand Cannons to do the job for me. I've watched your vids, been practicing and now am outsniping people, being smarter about it and just generally a much better sniper largely thanks to the foundations you lay in these vids. Thanks man, have a great day!
This guide really helps me. I've been sniping for a while now, so zonning into head on aim is natural for me, but the other details have been extreamly helpful. Thank you.
Is it only me or does everyone feel this way? Sometimes when using a sniper i rarely miss a shot, it feels so good, and sometimes i suck so badly that it feels so hard to get a kill. Im kinda good with a sniper overall but i wish if it was more consistent. Any thoughts on improving? Thanks
sometimes we feel more confident on maps we know better. playing a map we're not familiar with, or don't know all the sniping lanes on can throw us off of our game.
You are a saint among men, sir. Good advice, stated clearly, in a laid-back demeanor that's easy to listen to. Your tips about how to practice sighting in is what I was hoping to find, and I'm very happy to have actually found it. Thanks for posting this. :)
man i remember watching this back in the old days. It really did help me a lot, most of your videos helped me become really good at pvp. Before I watched you I always acted really timid but then i started to really get out there and use my mobility options (i main hunter) in order to get some insane plays. Thanks for that.
I want to thank you for all your support and help on this sniper videos you've been putting out they really helped me improve my game and I can really feel more confident in my sniper abilities keep up the good work and keep this it's coming because I like seeing your videos
wow watching this about 9 months later and its so weird seeing where the crucible was at back then versus now... I miss how the snipers and fusions were but shotguns and especially those exotic handcannons were waaay too strong.
Wow man, FANTASTIC video. I really appreciate your approach with not only giving the pointers for sniping but also pausing to commentate on the video. Like all the best teachers I had in school: learn as much by accident(along the way) as I do on purpose.
Great video man! Good tips! Personally, my favorite sniper for the Crucible has always been The Supremacy from the Queen's Wrath event. If you have it, what do you think of it?
I played a lot of SWAT in Halo Reach, so I find that keeping my reticle head level is very natural to me, so I gave snipers a try, and with your tips i did really well with the VoC, a Low grade Humility w/ Unflinching, and teh Thandurl0rd. Great videos, keep em' up!
Great video! I was also lucky enough to get the Longbow(mine has grenadere and final round and I love it compared to my LDR. It just shoots so smooth and its void so it'll replace my Paredyths Revenge. I enjoy sniping alot but I feel like I'm being forced to resort to a shotgun with most of the maps being chosen:/. P.S. I saw that live stream w/ you and Tinkkz. :) Very entertaining. You guyz seem like fun people to play with. I'm going to have to catch you on a subby stream so I can play with you one of these days.
One the best tips on snipping I got was understanding where head level is on maps. (i know it can vary depending on jumping/crouching but it was a good started point) A tip someone told me to learn that was use your team mates to level up your scope. If you notice a friendly across map line up your sights with his head. Now (for the most part) you have a some what solid reference point. But as you said, stay mobile and always unstoppable to check radar.
Hey Vanguard, I want to say thanks for uploading this tutorial for sniping In Year 1, I was around the semi-high rank of'Average' with sniping; especially in Trials... but now in TTK, I've gotten rather rusty and grew a little weak with my sniping potential. I'll try to get better in Sniping once more with your teachings. Hopefully, I'll regain what I had lost. Thanks again. :)
Excellent stuff! Been looking to brush up on my weaknesses in PvP, and this is definitely one of them. Fantastic guide, already seeing improvement in my game from it.
Keeping your scope aimed head-level is the best possible advice. The best practice is to play SWAT on Halo Reach. It forces you to always keep your rifle head level, and good habits carry over.
Just want to say a quick thanks man. Your tips and tricks have really helped me in my sniping game and in my over all play as well. Hope to one day see you in the wild that is the Crucible.
I've been meaning to ask you to do a sniping tutorial for a long time, but I guess I wasn't the only one! Probably the most important tip you gave was to keep your sights aimed at head level. I haven't really practiced sniping in Destiny yet, but I've been wanting to break away from the shotgun crowd for a while, and this series should help a lot!
Coming back to this video after playing Destiny 2 for the past few weeks and seeing your super energy skyrocket after just one kill is so jarring. I miss this Destiny a lot though. Good times :)
When I practice my sniping, which is few and far between, I like to do it against enemies just because it helps acquire targets at different height levels, but I also enjoy practicing focusing on an object at head level
i was a really good shotgunner until i watched all of your videos on how to snipe. i have now been sniping for about a month now and i don't know why i ever shotgunned your videos help so much the thanks man.
I think in the end what really makes a good sniper someone who is simply used to the sensitivity of the gun in respect to the distance of the target allowing you to line up the headshot and get the insta kill.
hey Vanguard, I just found out a great sniping tip for those playing on a big TV (which must be a lot of players). I tried switching on "game mode" and it actually feels like I'm playing a different game. So much more responsive! Now I know why I'm sometimes better at long flick shots than I am waiting for enemies to run into my crosshairs! Kind of crazy that I've been playing that way this whole time..
I have a longbow, though I haven't used it much. Gonna have to go look at the perks now! Haha Some good tips here for sure. And great clips. Two friendly critiques, because you asked for those in the past, verbage could have been more concise. It's ok to be dogmatic if you're doing a how-to video. And also, there was a weird echo on your commentary audio, I don't think it was the whole time, but there were at least two times it was very noticeable. Love your content though man! Looking forward to episode 2!
True Vanguard These tutorials have really helped me improve my game. According to Destiny Tracker (PSN: KennyDoTT), I played 28 games last night, 7/30 to 7/31. 21 Wins, 7 Losses. 24 Positive K/DRs with 8 over 2.0. I was already a decent player, but the insight and fine tuning have made tremendous noticeable improvements. Chokepoint awareness, Field Practice, and Cover Awaerness have made a huge difference. These are just a few of the takeaways, but there's so much more that helped. These are excellent and well made videos. All around good, outstanding work. You have a new subscriber, sir. Please continue to make great videos. See you on the field.
Even when I put my sensitivity on 1 when I zoom down the scope it still seems REALLY sensitive this means a move straight over enemies. I thought maybe it was normal but when I played COD over at my friends I realised as soon as I scoped the sensitivity was really low and I was able to move my analogue sticks so the redicle is on the players head compared to in Destiny where I have to move my whole characters body because the sensitivity is too high. Is there anyway to lower the scope sensitivity in Destiny or is the game built so you have to move your whole body?
It's called aim assist. It is seriously one of the worst ideas ever in the gaming industry. I really wish Destiny had the option to not use aim assist or just remove it altogether. What is happening to you is that you expect your movement of your analogue stick and that is how much it moves. Games with aim assist attempt to correct your shooting for you. So aim assist plus your movement equals missed shot.
Another great vid. I grabbed the Longbow from the vendor since never dropped for me, and I don't regret it. Hey you mentioned denying the C objective, and map/spawn control is so important. I wonder if you could do a talk on how to play from the poor spawns and how/when to claim the ideal objectives when an opponent is defending well. When I'm soloing and having a hard time getting into the "good" spawn, I usually just end up trying to fight where I'm effective. But in those cases, even if I do manage to do well we usually lose the game.
absolutely fantastic, subbed. What would you say is a year 2 replacement for your longbow? I haven't watched the rest of the episodes yet, but also curious if you mess with your look speed?
I completely agree with you about this. Though I use patience and time because I am very accurate, it would be nice to get those reviving guys with one shot. The reason I use p and t though is because it has a high rof and insane stability so I can get from one kill to the next really fast. But great video man
Great vid! I've learned a lot about situational awareness by watching. Any other tips for learning to scope in near head level/minimize target acquisition? You mention it's the most important skill, so I'm curious what methods you'd recommend.
Is the Amplified Geo any good in PvP? You'll probably say it sucks or not good, that's probably why its a Vanguard weapon in the first place, not Crucible.....just wondering
Squatchmen Cole i personally don't like it much. since it's on of those high RoF, low impact snipers, basically it's appeal is that you can get two body shots before the enemy knows what's happening but the Amplified Geo has low stability which makes it's only good thing harder to do. I say look for another sniper. even if it's a rare. it's regular crucible so that doesn't matter
Hey. What do you think of the her benevolence?! And what level is your look sensitivity on?! Am on 3 at the moment. Thank you so much if you can answer. Most appropriated
Hey it's JehuKing and thanks for the tutorial! Funny, I mentioned this in your stream but you clearly had this planned for a bit. Your tip about head level is great and I'll out it to use. Wanna get better at sniping.
found this really helpful thanks! I found that its not just about having the best sniper that matters, but having the one that suits your play style and you find comfortable. for example I prefer the Hawkeye scope, which is better for shorter ranges because I find having too much zoom on a scope restricts your field of vision. anyway great tips thanks again!
Truly impressive play! :) May I ask what ”Look Sensitivity” you have set for the controller in the settings? By the videos it looks like the number (speed) is rather low, or?
G'Day mate. Just watched this for the fiorst time and learned a lot. Do you have any further advice for witch guns to look for now that Taken King is a few months old? I have the 1000 Yard stare, but have favoured the Tao Hua Yuan as it is easier (for me) to fire, but I am not getting a lot of kills. I'll continue watching your serires now.Thanks again. X1GT & PSN = nerdydolphins
What sensitivity do you use? I always go high but I've been hearing lately about lower sensitivities being easier to snipe with and for hand cannons as well, easier to headshot with. I'm gonna try it out but wondering what you use
Ixor Nah, I'm not arguing that fact. Just saying to anyone who has a good scope (My personal favorite right now is LV SLR10) with snapshot, use it. I have a LDR with QD, but just god awful...god awful scopes. So it is sitting in my vault.
Bro, I just saw someone post a great idea on Mr.FruitsGamingChannel about doing a special dream team Iron Banner bets for next IB! The idea was to have you, KjHovey, and another well known player (it really doesn't matter who) to be special guests for the next IB bets! Anyways I thought this was a great idea much love bro!!!
I am decent but I decided to watch this to learn a few pointers I was a pre good sniper on GTA but new game is new mechanics so yeah what is the best way to get snipers like any quest I can do I mostly get shotguns and fusion rifles and i don't like either of them
Anyone watching this for the nostalgia?
Gotcha beat
YEET
I am. Still miss those days more than any gaming period I've been a part of (including Halo 3).
To me these were the best of times.
Yea
Yes
Dude I'm looking back at year one when everything was so op. Longbow has a literal 20 rounds with 6 in mag. 123 SYZYGY has 42!!! In the mag! 42!!! Just makes me remember how much more reliable weapons were in year 1
The awesome Westyfield vex 56 rounds an jolder 50something aswell
Call me Clutch gaming but snipers are still shit except for nlb and maps like first light and maps with lanes like rusted lands
The awesome Westyfield I've gotten 8 of them in 2 days
Year 2 player here, and all I can say is, HOLY CRAP look how much special ammo!
lol I know right
2020 and watching it again ,still relevant ,even if Tv 's sniping gameplay is realy different now
I just read your interview on Bungie and followed the link to your videos. Outstanding means and methods and what seems to be a very patient attitude.

Michael Montes thanks for tip, will dust it off from my vault and give it a run ... been using Evergreen II.I most of the time

Anyone 2019? Y really loved this game! god damm!
I sometimes just like to watch these old vids to jog the memory of how much we lost. eve down tot he look and feel d1 was better than d2
It really wasn’t you’re just nostalgically biased
Just wanted to say thanks. I never was the best sniper and relied upon Shotguns and Hand Cannons to do the job for me.
I've watched your vids, been practicing and now am outsniping people, being smarter about it and just generally a much better sniper largely thanks to the foundations you lay in these vids. Thanks man, have a great day!
Awesome vid. I know it’s old but your tips are fantastic and I’ll try them out in forsaken. Keep it up TV

+khalifa altayer Me too but I don't know how to improve
exactly the same...
i know you posted that long time ago but it happens to me too one game I'm amazing the other I suck.
sometimes we feel more confident on maps we know better. playing a map we're not familiar with, or don't know all the sniping lanes on can throw us off of our game.
-Warming up
-Different Maps
-Different enemies
-Luck
-I am too Late but i don’t care all of you are propably pros now Ort you stopped playing
You are a saint among men, sir. Good advice, stated clearly, in a laid-back demeanor that's easy to listen to. Your tips about how to practice sighting in is what I was hoping to find, and I'm very happy to have actually found it.

I loved this video - I found it super helpful and enjoyable. Thank you!!
I've been looking 4 a vid. Like this for at least 3 months. Thank you for sharing your ability with us.
I want to thank you for all your support and help on this sniper videos you've been putting out they really helped me improve my game and I can really feel more confident in my sniper abilities keep up the good work and keep this it's coming because I like seeing your videos

Man, this is hands down the best snipe tutorial I have seen, and I have been watching a lot because I suck at sniping.
Excellent vid, man. All of you with Rezo are doing some incredible and very useful stuff.
Had to come back for a refresher and all the feels. Thanks always, TV!
Posted 4 years ago.... Still watched.
1:39 "oh relax we'll just sit down here and...." POW! HEADSHOT!
It's crazy how much your commentary has improved in a year... keep it up!
I played a lot of SWAT in Halo Reach, so I find that keeping my reticle head level is very natural to me, so I gave snipers a try, and with your tips i did really well with the VoC, a Low grade Humility w/ Unflinching, and teh Thandurl0rd. Great videos, keep em' up!
Great video! I was also lucky enough to get the Longbow(mine has grenadere and final round and I love it compared to my LDR. It just shoots so smooth and its void so it'll replace my Paredyths Revenge. I enjoy sniping alot but I feel like I'm being forced to resort to a shotgun with most of the maps being chosen:/.
P.S. I saw that live stream w/ you and Tinkkz. :) Very entertaining. You guyz seem like fun people to play with. I'm going to have to catch you on a subby stream so I can play with you one of these days.
still relevant. my sniping got so much worse in d2 and I want to fix it
"One of the biggest misconceptions of this game is that a sniper is a sniper"
This explains absolutely everything
2:00
Slight correction - when using the third barrel option on patience and time (cant remember what its called) you can one shot off of a revive
Aggressive ballistics

This video takes it back for me, keep up the great content, TV look forward to seeing you in the crucible.
I hope you can answer my question. What is the sensitivity of your controller? I'm having a hard time aiming and I use 7 usually.
Try sensitivity from 3-5 for more precise sniping.

Shoutout to the series that really got me into destiny
I like how redrix’s (sword name) has the old design of the old rapid fires
Do you have a video on closing the gaps? Of not could you make one?
Great video. I miss the long bow! Now we get the 1000 yard stare non stop!
I really miss this. 5 years
4 years on, tv is still the same dude, content is still relevant. Nice
Everytime at 7:04 your commentary activates my Siri when you so "and so right there" lmao
I did what you did in patrol and it really helped my target acquisition
True Vanguard These tutorials have really helped me improve my game. According to Destiny Tracker (PSN: KennyDoTT), I played 28 games last night, 7/30 to 7/31.
21 Wins, 7 Losses. 24 Positive K/DRs with 8 over 2.0.
I was already a decent player, but the insight and fine tuning have made tremendous noticeable improvements. Chokepoint awareness, Field Practice, and Cover Awaerness have made a huge difference. These are just a few of the takeaways, but there's so much more that helped.
These are excellent and well made videos. All around good, outstanding work.

cwidtsoe this is late but it would be nearly impossible to shoot anyone with a controller without AA
Love your videos you inspire me to be better at destiny and keep my eyes on the mini map
This really helped me a lot. Im hitting a lot of my shots now. Thx again for your awesomeness truevanguard
Great help thank you for your expertise. What sensitivity setting so you use?
Another great vid. I grabbed the Longbow from the vendor since never dropped for me, and I don't regret it.

would you say that you need a pretty good connection to be a great sniper?
Great video, very informative for new and veteran snipers alike.
Patience and time actually does have enough impact to rez shoot if u spec it with max impact
True Vanguard so with the patrol thing do you mean quickscope the landmark?
I have a nice Longbow Synthesis with Unflinching and Firefly that I have been a fan of for a wile.
Like your videos. Appreciate how you speak over the video of you playing and comment on it as you go.
Hey TrueVanguard, what is that primary you are using in this vid?
Have you adjusted your sensitivity with your controller at all? Or just what is standard load out?
What are your look control settings?
I find low numbers make it hard to turn or evade, and higher numbers make it hard to get sights on an enemy.
Best Destiny utuber period
Is the Amplified Geo any good in PvP? You'll probably say it sucks or not good, that's probably why its a Vanguard weapon in the first place, not Crucible.....just wondering
Yes, absolutely. Got one with hidden hand, unflinching and hand laid stock(more stability/less range) and it's really good for regular crucible.
Hey thanks, ok thats a relief
It's not too bad if you have nothing else, but its one of those fast firing, low impact, sniper rifles.
Squatchmen Cole i personally don't like it much. since it's on of those high RoF, low impact snipers, basically it's appeal is that you can get two body shots before the enemy knows what's happening but the Amplified Geo has low stability which makes it's only good thing harder to do. I say look for another sniper. even if it's a rare. it's regular crucible so that doesn't matter
Squatchmen Cole Some vanguard weapons are great in pvp like the Ldr 5001
Hey. What do you think of the her benevolence?! And what level is your look sensitivity on?! Am on 3 at the moment. Thank you so much if you can answer. Most appropriated
Hey vanguard be honest is Glass promontory a good sniper or should I get a long bow
Hey it's JehuKing and thanks for the tutorial! Funny, I mentioned this in your stream but you clearly had this planned for a bit. Your tip about head level is great and I'll out it to use. Wanna get better at sniping.
Hey man! Thanks again for stopping by the stream. Yeah I was planning this one for a while now, been excited about it.
AWSOME explanation never could have been said better great job.
Look at the ammo pool.
Such a great vid mate great work!
found this really helpful thanks!
I found that its not just about having the best sniper that matters, but having the one that suits your play style and you find comfortable. for example I prefer the Hawkeye scope, which is better for shorter ranges because I find having too much zoom on a scope restricts your field of vision.
anyway great tips thanks again!
Trials is coming back time to get the old school skills and show the new lights how it's done
love your vids keep up the good work
Forgot the special ammo spawn points were changed on Shores of Time. Man all these special ammo changes are brutal
Truly impressive play! :)
May I ask what ”Look Sensitivity” you have set for the controller in the settings? By the videos it looks like the number (speed) is rather low, or?
I hate that I dismantled my Longbow... just wanted to say it one last time. grrrr
Meeeeeee 2...
Same here I was like, "Nah Imma keep LDR its too OP anyway I need the Energy. I now have 1789 Ascendant Energy. Im an idiot, nice to meet you.
Brother l know that feeling,!vault was my reason. Best l did was keeping my LDR.
Chris D aegis of keil (hope im pronouncing right) has high aim assist like the longbow, try aiming for that sniper
+Alx SoCal shadow of veils I thought?
Watchint this in 2018 makes me so sad. I miss this game so much
G'Day mate. Just watched this for the fiorst time and learned a lot. Do you have any further advice for witch guns to look for now that Taken King is a few months old? I have the 1000 Yard stare, but have favoured the Tao Hua Yuan as it is easier (for me) to fire, but I am not getting a lot of kills. I'll continue watching your serires now.Thanks again. X1GT & PSN = nerdydolphins
What sensitivity do you use? I always go high but I've been hearing lately about lower sensitivities being easier to snipe with and for hand cannons as well, easier to headshot with. I'm gonna try it out but wondering what you use
thanks for the easy to learn tutorial i am average at sniping and cant wait to what the rest of your videos
hidden hand or firefly and shortgaze in my opinion
Snapshot makes a world of difference too. Especially against hard-scoped opponents.
+Abhijeet Shrawage QuickDraw is better as it does the same as Snapshot and Single Point Sling. Try it if you don't believe me.
Ixor Nah, I'm not arguing that fact. Just saying to anyone who has a good scope (My personal favorite right now is LV SLR10) with snapshot, use it. I have a LDR with QD, but just god awful...god awful scopes. So it is sitting in my vault.
Is that a year one longbow bc I don't remember it having 6 shots
Bro, I just saw someone post a great idea on Mr.FruitsGamingChannel about doing a special dream team Iron Banner bets for next IB! The idea was to have you, KjHovey, and another well known player (it really doesn't matter who) to be special guests for the next IB bets! Anyways I thought this was a great idea much love bro!!!
My favorite sniper is the her benevolence. What's your opinion on this gun?
Gucci
ZamDestiny meaning??
+PapaSmerg Gucci = Fancy italian clothing company = Good
I got a 1000 yard stare, so i dont use it anyomore
+PapaSmerg Indeed, me as well
I have watched this series so much that I have gone mlg a couple of times in trials
do you recommend practicing with a high aim assist or low aim assist sniper rifle?
What sensitivity setting do u have it set to?
What is the sensibility you use, i used to snipe with 3, but maybe a should try to get to 5?
I am decent but I decided to watch this to learn a few pointers I was a pre good sniper on GTA but new game is new mechanics so yeah
what is the best way to get snipers like any quest I can do I mostly get shotguns and fusion rifles and i don't like either of them
