The tip to swap to sniper for a body shot after hitting a headshot with your hand cannon, during a peek duel, is very good. This is something I discovered outside of this video that gets me a lot of kills, I am glad to see it mentioned here
Found your channel just barely, I feel like the way you explained the scenarios and play style is super clear. The differences and tips, and how important things are is communicated well assuming someone has a baseline understanding of sniping already. I definitely have been trying to get better at sniping and feel like these tips are very worth it to try and level up my gameplay.
This video gives some really good advice...I've always loved sniping and this playstyle fits what I find fun, I just need to get better aim and crosshair placement
I've played with Awake before and he's literally an insane sniper god! This video is super helpful to sniper noobs like myself. Another dime of a video Awake!
you made this very well. I feel like so many destiny 2 content creators these days give specific advice for less experienced people to have a goal to chase after. in reality bein a good player is finding what everyone else is doing and adapting to it which can sometimes be very specific to one person. you made this open ended which is a nice change of pace.
This content is super helpful!! Love the descriptions and the scenarios. Also I was happily surprised to see that I recognized some of the names in your kill feed during scrims. Then I looked up your clan and realized I know about half those guys haha.
I loved this and I can't wait for the second part. Have you ever tried using Tommy's or DMT on your warlock? It offsets the low handling on both weapons, and they're pretty good duelers at their respective ranges because of the hipfire nature
been really motivated to get good at sniping this season. just hit 1200 kills with my beloved and your vids have been great motivation for when i have a bad stretch🤝
also great point about not being afraid to body shot. i used to get tunnel visioned on trying to get a headshot and that made me a worse sniper. obviously you still wanna aim for the head but a body shot and quick-swap to a hc or smg is still too fast for most people to react to
Nice vid man. Been sniping since day 1 D1 on a blink voidlock and you have some great tips here! That being said what we really need to know is your shader game. You’re on point specifically: 1. Beloved / Austringer 2. Adored (shader and skin) 3. Frozen Orbit 4. Eye of Sol (gold one) The people need to know!
It's a high skill high reward playstyle, but, it's also very fun, so, everyone out there, really give this advice a try, you might find you're an absolute precision beast.
i got aim down and movement but the only thing im struggling with a bit is balancing when to use my primary and when to snipe. i feel like im using my sniper too much
did'nt take you as long as you said to come out with this.are'nt we efficient?i've waited years for some kinda idea on how to accomplish this style of play.thank you,awake!!!
I love your video’s I also found this to be pretty helpful. Do you think you could make a video on breaking bad sniping habits though? That’d help me a ton! 😂
Im a little less than average when it comes to sniping and i noticed its my poor choices and lack of awareness that screws me up, but i did get some usefull tips from this video will probably try some of them out
I’ll definitely add that in the next guide! There’s for sure a few things you can do to help but it is definitely tough so don’t feel bad, flinch is a very frustrating mechanic on both sides haha but it’s definitely necessary in snipers
Hey man. Great content. I’m just using a sniper for the first time. I have Kovaaks on my computer (I use m&k) I know you don’t, but do you know of a playlist to use? Or any thing of that kind? Also what sensitivity do you run? Thanks!
@@pokejinwwi I’ve gotten only one beloved from a chest but it was after I had the pattern The best way to actually get it is from the helm each week so if u want beloved and austringer it’ll take u 10 weeks which really really sucks so it get everything it’ll take all season
Not me thinking I could do this lmao. This man's brain is just operating at a higher rpm than mine - amazing to watch tho. It'd be a privilege to get sniped by anyone who can pull off these shots, bravo.
My biggest thing is my hit reg with a sniper is terrible it either 60% of the time doesn’t register I hit them or I’ll body shot them and it registers 0.5 or 0.6 seconds later super delayed but all other guns are good only snipers do this for me not sure why
I've always struggled with reticle placement, either I'm too high or too low. Aside from practice, is there any visual cue that I can use that might help? Maybe from the scope?
Awesome video! Gotta get myself into sniping. Would a Shepard's watch with snapshot/moving target work? I never got lucky enough with a good eye of sol. Otherwise I can use beloved.
„If that bothers you, let me know in the comments…“ haha, made my day. Way to oen the criticism. People bitchin about input is always the same. I took m&k and controller flawless over 20times and i CAN say, that controller is bae for close range sniping, its just so consistent. However, ALSO in close range m&k with shotguns or fusions are just insanely hard to play against. So ups for both sides. Keep it up man!
@@Awake_wl Much appreciated thank you! Not sure your thoughts on this, but I am wanting to incorporate Devil's Ruin with an Aggressive Sniping playstyle with tricksleeves. Hopefully Eye of Sol fits the bill!
Probably is just muscle memory....but I find it very hard when I slide out of a corner to have my scope placed correctly where it should be! Especially with higher zoom eye of sol.....tips anybody?
you play with a controller .. well nothing ro say with that BUT.. there is definitely a gap between this and mouse and keyboard. I mean, there is no "bullet magnetism" with M&K so.. it's not always gonna happen this "easy" (i know its not this easy tho. however, the no scope melee is absolutely efficient on M&K, just try it more guys. Peace !
I'd 100% think you were cheating if I matched you. Some of those clips are absolutely nuts. Could you include your sens and ads modifier? It seems decently high at hip and ads.
It doesnt really bother me that you are using controller tbh, while yes, different inputs but most of advices still apply, the mechanical aim part will be different but otherwise its gonna work mostly the same
PRINCE CHARMING (OS) Once upon a time in a kingdom far, far away, the king and queen were blessed with a beautiful baby girl. And throughout the land, everyone was happy... until the sun went down and they saw that their daughter was cursed with a frightful enchantment that took hold each and every night. Desperate, they sought the help of a fairy godmother who had them lock the young princess away in a tower, there to await the kiss... of the handsome Prince Charming. (enters gallantly onstage) It was he who would chance the perilous journey through blistering cold and scorching desert traveling for many days and nights, risking life and limb to reach the Dragon's keep. For he was the bravest, and most handsome... in all the land. (looks at the audience) And it was destiny that his kiss would break the dreaded curse. He alone would climb to the highest room of the tallest tower to enter the princess's chambers, cross the room to her sleeping silhouette, pull back the gossamer curtains to find her... (pulls back the curtain to reveal WOLF in the bed.
Hey, you use a controller and it bothers me...... just kidding, I love the content and am trying to improve my own sniper gameplay. I miss like a hundred shots and hit one, but the one hit is so satisfying that I'm insane enough to keep trying. I use M+K
Haha 😂 I appreciate it man!..yeah honestly that’s normal, I miss a ton it just takes a lot of practice , yeah It’s for sure much tougher on mnk but there are a lot of very good snipers on mnk who can do it too

lot of Sayariu vibes in the video, thanks for the guide man. I’m learning how to main snipers and this is what I needed

Great tips! Looking forward to part 2 and more aggressive sniper content.
As someone whos channel only recently really picked up these videos are great, cant wait for part 2!
Nice video man, Goodluck with yt 👍
Looking forward to pt2
This guy is an absolute beast with a sniper
Love your videos dude
I just got back into snipers after 2 years and this is so helpful dude
Nice vid man. Been sniping since day 1 D1 on a blink voidlock and you have some great tips here!
That being said what we really need to know is your shader game. You’re on point specifically:
1. Beloved / Austringer
2. Adored (shader and skin)
3. Frozen Orbit
4. Eye of Sol (gold one)
The people need to know!
Haha😂..beloved should be biolume,austringer is tidesmoke, frozen orbit is dreaming spectrum, but I’m not sure on eye of sol :/
Try the shadow gilt on eye of sol, it makes it fully gold
It's a high skill high reward playstyle, but, it's also very fun, so, everyone out there, really give this advice a try, you might find you're an absolute precision beast.
if ur on controller this is prolly the easiest playstyle u can have
this video has great of examples of pre-aiming
You are insane dude your sniper videos have helped me a lot (I was good at sniping before I was just stupid) ❤
Thanks bro, really good tips. Just have problems to really put that into my gunplay. Pumped for part 2 :)
I was waiting fot this, perfect.
1:16 that statement is underrated. 😂
i got aim down and movement but the only thing im struggling with a bit is balancing when to use my primary and when to snipe. i feel like im using my sniper too much
Haha yeah I do this too, always could for practice tho so it’s not a terrible habit tbh!

Tysm for the more in dept agro snipe guide. Your the best dude 🔥
Thank you so much. You really help me to play agressive with my sniper, i was looking for some tips and advices but this video is just amazing for me
Super great video and helpful thanks! Can’t wait for part 2
Been waiting for this one
Insane man, amazing plays!
Im a little less than average when it comes to sniping and i noticed its my poor choices and lack of awareness that screws me up, but i did get some usefull tips from this video will probably try some of them out
Great vid bro 👌, what do you do about flinch because im getting kicked into the sky lol hope you cover it in the next vid too
I’ll definitely add that in the next guide! There’s for sure a few things you can do to help but it is definitely tough so don’t feel bad, flinch is a very frustrating mechanic on both sides haha but it’s definitely necessary in snipers

hey revoker is it worth the grab idk what sniper to get i have beloved not upgraded or i can buy revoker
Great tips that I've never seen any where else!!!
Can you do a review on cloudstrike
Nice! Can't wait for part 2!
It’s finally here y’all just in time for my crafted beloved
@@pokejinwwi I’ve gotten only one beloved from a chest but it was after I had the pattern
The best way to actually get it is from the helm each week so if u want beloved and austringer it’ll take u 10 weeks which really really sucks so it get everything it’ll take all season
Yeah that grind was so rough I’m glad I’m done😂
@@Awake_wl same also Ik you said put handeling but how do u feel about stability do u think it’s worth anything now that it’s tied to flinch
@@pokejinwwi to me frozen orbit was next level and occulided finality was a beast
Not me thinking I could do this lmao. This man's brain is just operating at a higher rpm than mine - amazing to watch tho. It'd be a privilege to get sniped by anyone who can pull off these shots, bravo.
What do you think is a better pairing for a sniper hand Canon or submachine gun
Nice video with some interesting points to consider. You earned a sub my man.
can you please post your controller settings (sensitivity and button layout)?
My biggest thing is my hit reg with a sniper is terrible it either 60% of the time doesn’t register I hit them or I’ll body shot them and it registers 0.5 or 0.6 seconds later super delayed but all other guns are good only snipers do this for me not sure why
I've always struggled with reticle placement, either I'm too high or too low. Aside from practice, is there any visual cue that I can use that might help? Maybe from the scope?
Hmmm honestly I can’t really think of anything like that to help, it really just comes down to practice and repetition I think!
Great Content 🔥
I’ve always wanted to be that one insane dude in trials who can snipe under pressure and hit heads up close or while jumping
Awesome video! Gotta get myself into sniping. Would a Shepard's watch with snapshot/moving target work? I never got lucky enough with a good eye of sol. Otherwise I can use beloved.

Should I learn how to snipe normally or snipe like this first?
Hey whatsvyour FOV and settings that you use for this play style
Can you make a vid for fragments aspects, mods and etc? for snipers
love the vids, i also loved getting rolled by u lol
for this playstyle would u still recommend quick draw or moving target for a beloved
I use QuickDraw but moving target is good too
GG, awaiting new videos… pls provide some info in next videos about your sniping practice, routine , training etc …
What is your favorite kinetic sniper?
Eye of sol I’m guessing based of the gameplay
Yeah eye of sol for me!…I did a tier list you can check out if you’re wondering on how I’d rank all of the snipers!
@@Awake_wl Much appreciated thank you! Not sure your thoughts on this, but I am wanting to incorporate Devil's Ruin with an Aggressive Sniping playstyle with tricksleeves. Hopefully Eye of Sol fits the bill!
What controller sensitivity are you using:).?
will there ever be a snipeing guide for mnk ?
What's the shader on your eye of sol at 4:50?
Great video btw.
My biggest problem is consistency. One day I hit 10 crits in single game and feel like a god and next day I can barely get 2.
Same here haha! That’s the biggest thing im still trying to improve on
Body shot last word clean ups are hilarious
Very helpful video... i love to snipe but terrible at it. Really want to get better, thank you. :)
Part 2?
Out of curiosity what’s your sensitivity and ads?
I should have a settings video in the description
so, no rapid fire like father sins?
You can definitely use them but I would say they’re pretty objectively worse than the others unfortunately
Great vid. Thanks
Thanks for the video
What sensitivity do you use?
Its essentially a chappy with less range
mnk guid please
Probably is just muscle memory....but I find it very hard when I slide out of a corner to have my scope placed correctly where it should be! Especially with higher zoom eye of sol.....tips anybody?
Subbed!!

What's your sensitivity?
Curious to know your sensitivity on controller?
Nvm, just saw your other video, clean way of playing the game
Usefull video....Iove your intro
Thx man:) the next video will have an even better version of it actually!🔥
@@Awake_wl 👍👍❤️❤️😍😍
does range matter on snipers?
Yes it has to do with aim assist basically
What’s your sensitivity (wanna try yours g)
16 and .5 currently
@@Awake_wl you had 16 and 0.5 on thèse clips? I might try it out
Please tell me you didn’t ads with last word in that video right😭😂
I did and it struck so much fear into him jumped off 🤣
Cool video, interesting to
It bothers me that it bothers other people that you use a controller. Controller gamer for life!
I watched the first 4 mins and just stopped. Yea YOURE just cracked bro don’t know what to tell u🤷🏾♂️
Whats your sensitivity and fov ?
16 and .6 l! I also have a settings video that covers all of my settings
I like 720rpm way better than 900rpm. I find them a lot easier to use, probably because of the high range stats.
I'd 100% think you were cheating if I matched you. Some of those clips are absolutely nuts. Could you include your sens and ads modifier? It seems decently high at hip and ads.
Jk you have a video on it already
I'm waiting the day we'll match and how that will fuck up my team's brain.
so you main
warlock
Do you play with controller on console or PC?
@UCYbnjxT_z3DbrCqqEZg9mKAHe never specifies what platform he plays on. He just said he uses a controller.
I’ve played on both, currently PS5 but trying to upgrade my PC
Ayo bro I also snipe fairly aggressively on ps5 but I’m def not as good as you. Would u be down to play some time tho?
Yeah I play w people in my discord server occasionally so feel free to join the link in description
basicly you need to have over 2000 hour in pvp
It doesnt really bother me that you are using controller tbh, while yes, different inputs but most of advices still apply, the mechanical aim part will be different but otherwise its gonna work mostly the same

Wow just beautiful😂
Your using a controller really bothers me! Mostly cause I don't understand how you're so good with it XD
Omg yessssss
Step 1 : put on fighting lion
Hey, you use a controller and it bothers me...... just kidding, I love the content and am trying to improve my own sniper gameplay. I miss like a hundred shots and hit one, but the one hit is so satisfying that I'm insane enough to keep trying. I use M+K
Haha 😂 I appreciate it man!..yeah honestly that’s normal, I miss a ton it just takes a lot of practice , yeah It’s for sure much tougher on mnk but there are a lot of very good snipers on mnk who can do it too
I just snipe the sweet business user to stop the incessant noise. 😂
Every time. Just look at from where they are shooting the wall and snipe their big ass when they straight line you.
I have a feeling the people want part 2 now, i know i do! 😂
Requirements on controller:
-use controller and have avarage aim
Requirements on m&k:
-Be a god and have god aim
ps. good video tho
yeah controller is just straight up unfair!! absolutely no skill required
@@nooch5204 and this negative flinch on controller is annoying too. I think bungie rly need to do something with this.
@@fyvfjnfy yeah i totally agree. controllers are just so free it isn’t even fair
🎉
why is every good sniper on controller?????????
