+It's Shotty I definitely remember viewing a large portion of these. "Jump shots" and "quickscopes" are alright I guess... they are probably better for a videos like this compared to a montage...
+nefarious I never understood that, these are nothing but RNG based, and he pulls them off multiple at a time, and you're telling me destiny is about skills? I'll remember these no scopes and quick scopes next time I'm going between matches from a 5.4 kd to .3 kd. makes no sense how people don't see how rigged this game is.
I recently got a hidden hand ambush longbow and I love it, definitely a much different feel than shortgaze. Your an incredible sniper bro. The clips in this video are unreal bro. gg
its pretty crazy man but when you start watching a lot of very good players more often these types of things are just the norm but you have to remember when people like this play sweats its not as crazy because they will punish you for being this crazy.
NRosanes I actually had my best day in the crucible yet yesterday. My palindrome was finally registering and I was just wrecking like there was no tomorrow. I love hand cannons but man their hit detection is a problem right now.
+SirDimetrious I love the slr10 I don't know why but I do so good with it in sweat matches and stuff....if u know if the scope boosts aim assist or decreases aim assist can u please do a video on it ur just comment it
I used to use ambush all the time, but recently got a LDR with both shortgaze and ambush. As a result I was on shortgaze for a while, but after watching this video I swapped back to ambush, and really started sniping better. Thanks man for the good advise and gameplay.
my problem with sniper scopes is the blue color it makes hard to find the center of it, I like the Hawkeye SLR15 because it's yellow which is easier for target acquisition, only downside is the zoom, I'm running the Longview on my longbow and doing O.K but sometimes it's kinda hard to find the scope's reticle.
do you have are marker on the center of your screen? or have you trained your self that well on knowing where to center your shot for quick scopes? some of those shots you ha e in your vids are like ridiculously amazing
Sir, what do you think about long view slr 10? That scope is pretty simular to ambush and short gaze. I like he snappy feel it has. But I also use shortgaze. That's my second go to scope
Have you guys ever tried ViewTac SH20? Its a very rare and bizarre scope that only rolls on TTK snipers (1000 yard and Weyloran's, etc). Its zoom is very low and it has a huge field of view.
I use switch between both a lot, actually I switch between all 3 low zoom scopes a lot tbh. I've always preferred shortgaze over everything else ever since vanilla destiny because of the small reticle. Ever tried tacsys? I would use it more often if it wasn't for the ADS nerf on snipers lol.
do u do trials runs with subs? I've been trying to go flawless for months. I'm pretty good have clutched rounds but I found that I can't always rely on my teammates
If you could make a video on how to snipe while being shot (flinched) and how to strafe when shooting a sniper. I've just been getting wrecked even if I put in a couple of bursts from a hawksaw
Ambush plus Injection Mold seems nice. You get fast ADS plus excellent stability. Usually people give up a ton of stability to take Snapshot over a stability perk for fast ADS.
I use to only use shortgaze, but recently I got a 1000 yard with shotgaze and ambush. So I'm trying to get better with ambush and I can tell the difference with both scopes since I'm missing way more shots than I use too.
so i should keep my ambush-hidden hand-1000 yard stare and probably get used to it more in crucible? im too attached too my shotgun atm need to switch up
hey man why do you melee after you get a snipe even if the guy was miles away from you? well i guess it might work if youre a warlock but still is it the way you grab your controler?
I am a top crucible sniper, (play competitive sweats) and I noticed that the scopes in my preference require different sniping techniques. Such as Shortgaze feels natural to drag scope and twitch to land on target, while ambush and LongView slr10 are good good for head level small adjustment sniping and quick scope- if that's what you wanna call it lol!
First sniper (legendary) i ever picked up and LOVED was the Epitaph from vanilla. Ambush, outlaw, and some other perk, i forgot. I ALWAYS used that sniper along with a counterbalance and glass half full shadow price. Two most perfect guns, my first 2 legendaries too :D
Man, I always preferred ambush, but also used shortgaze more in the past especially when I wanna keep up with everyone 100% but I really got back into ambush last couple of weeks, and I just love it so much, even tho sniper battles are a little harder, like you said
those were some gnarly snipes. i used to be a shortgaze only guy. i got a long bow with ambush and rifled barrel. i feel without rifled barrel the gun was somewhat unreliable. i was certain i was on point and missed. but with rifled activated its crisp and hits every shot. I love ambush now. I got a pretty great 1ks with hidden hand and shortgaze and i choose the ambush all day over that.
i have been using both scopes but recently ambush feels less reliable... i am an aggressive sniper and i think that ambush is... for when they haven't seen you and you can get 1 pick to surprise the enemy... that's why it is called ambush after all (my opinion) and shortgaze is more the 1 on 1 sniper engagement even though surprisingly it feels slower. i have a 1kys with shortgaze/ambush snapshot hidden hand so i think it's the best sniper to test everything you said. :) good vid as always and hope to find you in the crucible on day :D
What about tacksy my ldr has it as the lowest zoom scope and because the ldr is the sniper I have use my since I started sniping I use it over my longbow with shortgaze or ambush with hidden hand and my ldr doesn't have hidden hand. I would like to see your opinion after using it
since ambush sits so low on the gun, you have less of a view underneath you as the top of the gun cuts off the bottom of the scope and with guns like glass promontory the sight is even more acute.
Same here, before HOW all I used was ambush. But people were saying shortgaze was better so I switched. Aim assist took the skill out of me because I can't use ambush as well anymore.
I honestly prefer ambush myself because I'm often not aiming right at the head and find it easier to adjust with ambush. Shortgaze is nice though. Also, those plays you made were absolutely crazy. 😮
I've got a god roll on longbow yesterday, it have a shortgaze, ambush, snapshot and hidden hand on it. I'd like to learn how to quickscope, what scope should i use for it?
Battle pony i started off with a ambush then started using a shortgaze . but my first sniper clip was a year 1 clip with tacsys. thats been my favorite ever since
hey sir. how do you feel about destiny as competitive? I mean my thing is that it has aim assist witch kinda can make any body good plus you have them teams who chain supers. I mean there are good shotty players but shot guns are to easy to use and you have snipers like the long bow I feel like its a cheesy sniper beings though it has a aim assist of like 65 or 68 witch is kinda high.
My first 1k stare and longbow both had ambush and I really liked it. I used a 1KS with shortgaze for a long time also and liked that as well. I now have a longbow with the longview slr10 and it feels pretty nice (Not sure how much the hidden hand is helping with that though). I agree with you though, ambush is definitely worth a try.
ive been playing with preadyths revenge for whole year one that has like 25 aim assist if im right, im still using it from time to time just because it makes you a better sniper to use low aim assist snipers this helps out a lot. as for shortgaze or ambush idont have a clear choice vut i like how tiny the ambush scope is compared to shortgaze, gives you a better overview.
dude I switched to an ambush on a 1kYS I got the first day of TTK (not the vendor roll) after your video a couple days ago… I have been getting so many headshots I wasn't landing with shortgaze
+Kent Thompson thought you were talking about the close ranged ones. Probably does it to take the piss... I bet occasionally he throws a knife cross map and it randomly hits someone in the forehead
When i watch clips like those it gives me the motivation to actually try that stuff in Trials. Then I remember i'm terrible and i just get knocked by an axion bolt
no one is mentioning the clips they are so sick
They are old clips, so they are kind of meh tbh...
+It's Shotty I definitely remember viewing a large portion of these. "Jump shots" and "quickscopes" are alright I guess... they are probably better for a videos like this compared to a montage...
we have seen them bruh
right? sick af
+nefarious I never understood that, these are nothing but RNG based, and he pulls them off multiple at a time, and you're telling me destiny is about skills? I'll remember these no scopes and quick scopes next time I'm going between matches from a 5.4 kd to .3 kd. makes no sense how people don't see how rigged this game is.
I recently got a hidden hand ambush longbow and I love it, definitely a much different feel than shortgaze. Your an incredible sniper bro. The clips in this video are unreal bro. gg
I love how you know what you are talking about while you prove you know what you are talking about in the gameplay.
dude those clips in the background... are you even human?
bungie likes the promoters. good for the business.
its pretty crazy man but when you start watching a lot of very good players more often these types of things are just the norm but you have to remember when people like this play sweats its not as crazy because they will punish you for being this crazy.
Madara Uchiha I'm a good player and I've played/won some sweats, but SirD always amazes me.
+Mike Bohn word. Im excellent in PvP. But this clip. So sick. Maybe i need a faster internet so my shot can actually hit lol
NRosanes I actually had my best day in the crucible yet yesterday. My palindrome was finally registering and I was just wrecking like there was no tomorrow. I love hand cannons but man their hit detection is a problem right now.
what about slr10?
+SirDimetrious savage
me too :(
+SirDimetrious I love the slr10 I don't know why but I do so good with it in sweat matches and stuff....if u know if the scope boosts aim assist or decreases aim assist can u please do a video on it ur just comment it
+SirDimetrious I think it's ads is faster
+Tyler Frick adds aim assist and actually zooms in less than ambush or shortgaze pretty neat scope
Basically had montage quality clips in the background Lmao. Good video dude
0:17 = OMG!... actually almost every snipe on this video = omg
I used to use ambush all the time, but recently got a LDR with both shortgaze and ambush. As a result I was on shortgaze for a while, but after watching this video I swapped back to ambush, and really started sniping better. Thanks man for the good advise and gameplay.
Now this is one of the best Destiny channels. You post good content!
Some of those plays you made in the vid are unreal, like woah.
SIRD you blew my mind away at 4:10
my problem with sniper scopes is the blue color it makes hard to find the center of it, I like the Hawkeye SLR15 because it's yellow which is easier for target acquisition, only downside is the zoom, I'm running the Longview on my longbow and doing O.K but sometimes it's kinda hard to find the scope's reticle.
These plays are crushing my self esteem
that transition tho at 3:17 amazing editing.
do you have are marker on the center of your screen? or have you trained your self that well on knowing where to center your shot for quick scopes? some of those shots you ha e in your vids are like ridiculously amazing
Sir, what do you think about long view slr 10? That scope is pretty simular to ambush and short gaze. I like he snappy feel it has. But I also use shortgaze. That's my second go to scope
that quad at 5:07 was insane.
can you count
Have you guys ever tried ViewTac SH20? Its a very rare and bizarre scope that only rolls on TTK snipers (1000 yard and Weyloran's, etc). Its zoom is very low and it has a huge field of view.
Stillpiercer, But Not Forgotten, The laughing heart has the same scope from the "Point" if you know what I mean
yo Demitrius, why do you high five the air with your melee after you get a sniper headshot sometimes? just curious. also love ya x
@SirDimetrious I was shocked to hear Monody by TheFatRat playing in the background, such a great song, mad respect for you now :)
I use switch between both a lot, actually I switch between all 3 low zoom scopes a lot tbh. I've always preferred shortgaze over everything else ever since vanilla destiny because of the small reticle. Ever tried tacsys? I would use it more often if it wasn't for the ADS nerf on snipers lol.
Jesus dude. You're such a god at sniping. Great video and information.
do u do trials runs with subs? I've been trying to go flawless for months. I'm pretty good have clutched rounds but I found that I can't always rely on my teammates
If you could make a video on how to snipe while being shot (flinched) and how to strafe when shooting a sniper. I've just been getting wrecked even if I put in a couple of bursts from a hawksaw
Is this supposed to be a comparison or a montage because these shots are worth a nasty clip. Amazing job
Lel
Amazing Clips Bro . I Really Like Your Snips
MY primary weapon is the determining factor of what scope I use, with pulse or scout ambush with last word or other HC shortgaze
Ambush plus Injection Mold seems nice. You get fast ADS plus excellent stability. Usually people give up a ton of stability to take Snapshot over a stability perk for fast ADS.
Do a video on shotgun perks please? Considering the changes to rangefinder etc.
will you do another vid after the nerf/update at the scopes?
I use to only use shortgaze, but recently I got a 1000 yard with shotgaze and ambush. So I'm trying to get better with ambush and I can tell the difference with both scopes since I'm missing way more shots than I use too.
whats that sniper at 1:28? year 1 blue? it looks so cool
Would you recommend a weylorans with a perfect roll, or a 1kstare with an average roll
Damn those are some fresh snipes. Holy hell dude
Could somebody tell me what sniper he´s using around the 3:35 Mark? looks like a year one gun to me.
so i should keep my ambush-hidden hand-1000 yard stare and probably get used to it more in crucible? im too attached too my shotgun atm need to switch up
Damn those drag scopes you look like you pull really hard to the left or right when drag scoping do you?
What about Longview SLR10, i'm in love with it!
hey man why do you melee after you get a snipe even if the guy was miles away from you? well i guess it might work if youre a warlock but still is it the way you grab your controler?
I am a top crucible sniper, (play competitive sweats) and I noticed that the scopes in my preference require different sniping techniques. Such as Shortgaze feels natural to drag scope and twitch to land on target, while ambush and LongView slr10 are good good for head level small adjustment sniping and quick scope- if that's what you wanna call it lol!
Finally someone made a vid about this, havent watched full but i hope Ambush wins
Do you use Kontrol Freeks? If so which ones? Nice snipes man
First sniper (legendary) i ever picked up and LOVED was the Epitaph from vanilla. Ambush, outlaw, and some other perk, i forgot. I ALWAYS used that sniper along with a counterbalance and glass half full shadow price. Two most perfect guns, my first 2 legendaries too :D
What about Longview sL10 or the short distance Longview
Man, I always preferred ambush, but also used shortgaze more in the past especially when I wanna keep up with everyone 100% but I really got back into ambush last couple of weeks, and I just love it so much, even tho sniper battles are a little harder, like you said
those were some gnarly snipes. i used to be a shortgaze only guy. i got a long bow with ambush and rifled barrel. i feel without rifled barrel the gun was somewhat unreliable. i was certain i was on point and missed. but with rifled activated its crisp and hits every shot. I love ambush now. I got a pretty great 1ks with hidden hand and shortgaze and i choose the ambush all day over that.
How about longwiew? Where does it lie in this discussion?
What are your thoughts on the Longview scope? Viewtac?
i have been using both scopes but recently ambush feels less reliable... i am an aggressive sniper and i think that ambush is... for when they haven't seen you and you can get 1 pick to surprise the enemy... that's why it is called ambush after all (my opinion) and shortgaze is more the 1 on 1 sniper engagement even though surprisingly it feels slower. i have a 1kys with shortgaze/ambush snapshot hidden hand so i think it's the best sniper to test everything you said. :) good vid as always and hope to find you in the crucible on day :D
Dimetrious, what sensitivity do you play on?
Finally a utuber that uses ambush
What about tacksy my ldr has it as the lowest zoom scope and because the ldr is the sniper I have use my since I started sniping I use it over my longbow with shortgaze or ambush with hidden hand and my ldr doesn't have hidden hand. I would like to see your opinion after using it
what do you really want for perks and stuff on a sniper rifle? like... any sniper really
What's your opinion on Longview 10?
Love the vids man! Keep it up.
Havent gotten a shortgaze sniper yet this year... miss using my og supremacy :(
What's your thoughts on hawkeye slr15?
Ever since April update Shotgaze doesnt add AA and Ambush takes out 20 now.
The only problem with Ambush its the size of the reticle btw.
+Jordan30589 yeah I have sometimes have problems seeing that thing
+Jordan30589 I find ambush to be amazing. Would hate to see it change tbh
im pretty sure Ambush takes 25 away
AA is for skill less idiots who cant snipe. I hate Hidden hand its my least favourite perk
What is that red and grey sniper at 3:18?
since ambush sits so low on the gun, you have less of a view underneath you as the top of the gun cuts off the bottom of the scope and with guns like glass promontory the sight is even more acute.
3:16 THAT TRANSITION THO
+SirDimetrious Are the ambush and shortgaze the only two scopes you should consider for a sniper? What about like the Longview or the tacsys?
Longview feels clunky and weird, tacsys just has a lot more zoom than the others.
wich sensitivy you playing dimetrious?
And here i am running around with wildhawk.. Love that scope to death.
i want to start being a sniper player can you give me tips or a video that can help me start off. i wanna get good with the sniper.
2:23 What's that sniper?
why after you snipe randomnly melee noticed this in ur vids for some time
Same here, before HOW all I used was ambush. But people were saying shortgaze was better so I switched. Aim assist took the skill out of me because I can't use ambush as well anymore.
why do you melee after shooting your sniper bullet
What do you think about tacsys?
I honestly prefer ambush myself because I'm often not aiming right at the head and find it easier to adjust with ambush. Shortgaze is nice though. Also, those plays you made were absolutely crazy. 😮
I feel like ambush has more zoom, thats why I dont use it, but I guess I will try it out again
Btw SirD Ambush isnt the lowest zoom scope, its tied with Ambush and Viewtac SLH20 on 4.9 zoom.
What's your mini hawk moon role
i personally like ambush over shortgaze / esp if the sniper has alot of aa / i feel i can drag scope better
Longview slr10 ftw
:)
that plus 5 or so aim assist makes a huge difference. shortgaze has zero now since the April update
My scope of choice
I think that the Longview slr10 definitely should have been mentioned as I prefer it to both ambush and shortgase
yea i agree. kinda crazy he left that one out as i know a LOT of people use it
name of your year 1 red-white sniper whit ambush?
Whats the Orange and White sniper??
BRO YOUR AN ABSOLUTE GOD!!
When rise of iron drops you need to 1v1 TrueVanguard
Gameplay wise this is your best vid.
SirDimetrious, thanks for all the helpful info and tips.
What about that Eirene dude?
What is that orange and white sniper
I've got a god roll on longbow yesterday, it have a shortgaze, ambush, snapshot and hidden hand on it. I'd like to learn how to quickscope, what scope should i use for it?
Battle pony i started off with a ambush then started using a shortgaze . but my first sniper clip was a year 1 clip with tacsys. thats been my favorite ever since

Nasty. Just like you said, I started using Shortgaze when I saw you and other streamers using it, but I perform much better with Ambush.
whenever I feel like my shot is messing up, i switch to my longbow with ambush to re-teach myself timing and percision
what sniper is he using at 3:22
What about Viewtac SLH20?
Why do u melee when u snipe?
What number you use for sensivity?
4:00 to 4:10 the most mlg God play I have ever seen
My first 1k stare and longbow both had ambush and I really liked it. I used a 1KS with shortgaze for a long time also and liked that as well. I now have a longbow with the longview slr10 and it feels pretty nice (Not sure how much the hidden hand is helping with that though). I agree with you though, ambush is definitely worth a try.

What abut Eagle eye SRL20?
dude I switched to an ambush on a 1kYS I got the first day of TTK (not the vendor roll) after your video a couple days ago… I have been getting so many headshots I wasn't landing with shortgaze
Hey Sir D, what's the reason behind using you melee after you shoot?
In case he misses or gets a body shot
+Dwyton Greer No it's for style ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
+Dwyton Greer But you can't melee from across the map though lol
+Kent Thompson thought you were talking about the close ranged ones. Probably does it to take the piss... I bet occasionally he throws a knife cross map and it randomly hits someone in the forehead
+Kent Thompson I guess he's just used to Stormcaller 😂😂😂
Dont shortgaze and ambush have the same zoom?
When i watch clips like those it gives me the motivation to actually try that stuff in Trials. Then I remember i'm terrible and i just get knocked by an axion bolt
Fearlus Bun keep training bro the reward will come :)
what sensitivity do you snipe at
