I LOVE sniping in this game so easy to hs....but yeah very few maps allow good sniping spots....
I was looking at the crucible pvp handcannon that you can buy at lvl 20, rank 3... anyone think it's worth it? or should I just stick to AR? It seemed good because of the radar with ADS....there's also a pulse rifle that had radar with ADS....but no one seems to like using pulse rifles....
If you can aim HC is very viable and a lot of fun. I don't know which one you are talking about specifically though.
The one I use, I got in the Crucible. It has 9 bullet mag, ability to speed up reload, and ability for explosive rounds. The impact is also almost 100%. If the one you want to buy has only 6 bullet mag and slow reload, then I wouldn't, but if it has 8, 9, 10+ bullets and high impact, I think you'll like it just fine.
