Do THIS in Destiny 2 PvP (How to Increase your Awareness)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 มิ.ย. 2024
- This video answers the question of whether you should be focusing on your crosshairs or your target for maximum accuracy and awareness. It also explains how to keep track of the most important things in Destiny 2 PvP to increase your awareness. Between your target, the crosshairs, the radar, the killfeed, and your health level, there's a LOT to look at, and looking at the most important things (at the right times) will help you be a better player. This video explains how to do just that.
If you enjoyed the video, liking the video helps a lot and I do really appreciate it.

Second video after subscribing. You’re going to grow a lot. Other Destiny 2 content creators have moved to the “cover the TWAB xur and the newest gun like it’s the best gun ever” mode and it’s truthfully excruciating. You can’t ever tell how good a weapon actually is because they’re just hyping everything and not providing real content. You keep making detailed videos like this and you’ll grow. Well done.
The driving analogy...perfect
@@EtotheFnD Thanks!
I'm always watching the radar
I’ve used the analogy to my friends that when you throw a ball you keep your eyes on the target, you don’t look at your hand as you let go of the ball. Great vid 👍🏻
I REALLY wanted to put this in the video, but I left it out for simplicity’s sake!! It’s something I thought about as well! The same is also true when hitting the ball in Baseball. The first thing you learn is “keep your eye on the ball”.
This is the exact opposite of firing a gun in real life.
You fully focus on the front sight.
With red dots & other optics becoming popular, it's changing training methods a bit.
@@pewpew9193 that only applies to Iron sights not red dots
@@Ghost-Actual That's why I said Red Dots are changing training methods?
“You should not develop a tunnel vision”
Me: with my tunnel vision survivors epitaph: *im sorry little one*
HAHAHA
Me with my cromas rush with tunnel vission and kill clip: N O
Eyes on my crosshair: 1%
Eyes on my target: 9%
Eyes on my minimap: 90% 😅😅
It's all fun and games until a crouching hunter sneaks up on you, and dodges with Gemini jesters to remove your radar
Ah yes I also keep one eye on the crosshair 9 eyes on the target and 90 eyes on the minimap
@@commanderwolfe2812 smort
Literally barely ever take my eyes off radar until i see a marker on it
@@commanderwolfe2812 this is the best comment I have read on of these videos😂😂
Thanks for best hunter build Shadow, and mostly for reccomending the "Dragon shadow", it opens the game in a new way for me, thank you again.
Glad you liked it!!
Heeeyyy I remember that reaper clip, during the warm up games before u played with patty. That was insane
Haha thanks! I love when people watch my streams and then recognize the clips haha 😎
“I do not aim with my hand; he who aims with his hand has forgotten the face of his father.
I aim with my eye."
I understood that reference
@@WayneClark i think you just didnt get the reference
It's from a movie with a gun slinger
10/10
Nice video bro. Obviously put a lot of thought and effort in. Very educational and comprehensive
Shadow: talking about stuff and eyes or whatever
Me: sheesh this gameplay tho
Great content this deserves a sub. Everything you mentioned is something I feel is constantly overlooked, stay strong new lights you will all understand this one day! May the light be with you all💪💪
Thanks so much for this. Such relevant points, well constructed, and to the point. GG Shadow!
Man shadow I'm absolutely loving your content & not saying that lightly. Every time I watch your videos I learn something. I have never played as well as I am currently I just wanted to say thank you Fam it really brings a bit more fun to the game 😁
Thanks
Nice! Left eye on crosshairs, right eye on target, third eye on radar! 😉 Great analogies BTW!
Haha yeah exactly, that’s why there is the perk called “third eye” 😂
Thanks man, I hope you liked the video :)
Lol damn straight!
Lovin' the content! Keep em comin' please! 🙂👍
Eris Morn would like to have a word with you.
And two more eyes on the ammo count/ground when facing high numbers of targets
This is so counterintuitive for me because of doing a lot of work with real life firearms. With that you always focus on your sights.
I just said the same thing.
I focus on what im trying to hit and drag the sights on target with my peripherals. Seems to work.
Think of the sights like a red dot or holographic reticle, not your irons
That was it. The video that got me to subscribe. I'm addicted to good crucible training videos (they always scratch my invisible itch) and this one was very good. Thanks bruvah!
More coming soon! :) Thanks for the support
Your 1st step I agree 100% with I tried to aim with the rational I constantly missed but when I would get into the heat of the moment and only be looking at where I was trying to shoot I usually get the head shot
I can honestly say that these videos really good. I'm a PvE player mainly but I've started playing PvP & trail's & these videos have definitely helped improve my game. My K/D score has improved & so has my game play. Thank you for sharing so many great tips 👍
Great video this was really helpful
LOVE these type of videos!
The nostalgia hit in at 7:02 when I saw the Tatara Gaze 😂
This was a amazing vid, keep up the great work
Thank you very much!
Best info on the TH-cam. Thank you Shadow!
Best comment
Nice clean explanations and analogies 👍
Thanks!
I was actually thinking about this some time ago but I though it was too niche for a video, so happy we got it!
Thank you, very useful !
amazing advice, very helpful, very clear 10/10
Thank you 😊
i’m from the discord and it’s great to see how you use our feedback! great video!
AWESOME!
Thanks Shadow!
Another great pvp video tutorial.
Thanx i needed this
No problem :)
had a rough day in pvp today, this video should help moving forward
good luck!
Best PvP video out there so far
Great video! 👍
Dang Shadow! 16.7k subs, great work! Also great video
Thanks for your support!
@@ShadowDestiny What controller do you use?
I'm pretty sure I always focused on the enemy close and cross hair long range. Well, turns out that was the correct play lol.
still relevant 7 months later keep it up shadow (oh and btw trying middle tree nightstalker for the first time tonight because of you lets hope it goes well hahaha)
Great analogy buddy. Makes perfect sense and you point out a few things a meat head like me doesn’t think about on their own
The car analogy is actually perfect for crosshair/target debate - when you drive, you're supposed to keep your head up and look for one of the further points as your area of focus, not on the strip of road right in front of you. For exactly the same reasons- reaction and awareness
This is an extremely nuanced topic and I think you smoked it. Well written and the coach info was a great call. Didn't love the staggered self promo if I'm honest. Awesome work overall!! 👍👍
Your Thunder montage hands down is the best D2 pvp video out there so I'm glad you got some of your Cloudstrike montage clips in this tutorial when you say a lot of them die from snipers
haha thanks :) I have a full montage coming soon, perhaps you'll like that one as well
@@ShadowDestiny I'd watch it!!
1:47 The car in front of me is my target... Okay, got it!
omg thank u! for this this helps allot !
Thank YOU
@@ShadowDestiny na thank u man your the best fucking sniper in d2 i hope to god i get good as u some day :) i defffintly had trubble weather to have my eyes on the redical or or the enimey this deffintly helped me out
I never play pvp so I honestly needed this
I can only see out of half my right eye (perfectly splint down the middle and to the left), I'm completely blind in my left. This helps a lot, thank you!
Fantastic video. Gained a sub here!
Glad you liked it!
Great video my nightmare is I get single focus and stop paying attention to everything 🙁 working on braking Habit
Man, ILY
i tried focusing on the target rather than the crosshairs. There may be some merit to this rule when using a hand cannon and possibly a shotgun. For the most part, all other primary and secondary weapons have a sight (scope of some kind), which renders target focusing null and void.
Remember that eyes lead first. Got that from trex arms! Got me better at shooting but also videogames.
If sniping is like driving then Shadow is a nascar driver.
LOL
Nah nah nah…F1 Baby
I've slowly realized all this on my own as well. It's taking time to get used to. I just wanna be good at sniping lol it's hard for me
Sooo the moment I watch this I remembered alot of stuff I forgot and Jesus I went 12 and 0, and for the past games remained with a 3plus kda
I can agree with the crosshairs target focus thing
But my personal opinion is that it is also dependent on weapons, how well you know them, and other factors like recoil
This may not affect other people but I definitely feel it
I love thorn but I really struggle to use it due to its sights
Something that helps me with this is looking at the crosshair instead, this could be because of its horrible ironsight or because I’m not as adjusted to it
Whereas with something like ace I have used it a lot and I don’t have to even look at the crosshairs to hit headshots at range
Greetings from Germany. I found your channel through cammys video about bows. I really enjoy your videos. Btw which sensitivity do you use while sniping?
Hey, thank you! I play 4 sens while sniping. For more details, check out my sniper rifle guide :)
Essentially essential
7:09 I’m not sure where this soundbite came from but I approve
My biggest issue with shooters is that Im always shooting off their left, my right instead of hitting them.
If I can ever fix that, my KD would be way better.
Same bro, i also overshoot to the right if my target is on the right side of my screen like im always shooting close to their left ear. for me it happened when i practiced flick shooting and i was like "maybe i developed a bad habbit" after that i abandoned flick shooting and tried to make sure im on target before pulling the trigger. I continued to do that and am doin fine now (also fixed my bad "positioning" cause am not relying on flicks anymore)
For me, I am playing Hunter and I used Foetracer to improve my aim.
I’m working on my sniping and I am getting very good!
Still not as good as you tho😅
Love to hear it!
Why is this guy such a God
Random tip: if you move your screen bounds in as far as you can, it'll move everything in closer so your eyes don't have to move as much when looking between numerous things
This can cause problems when in closed areas and can't see the walls of the room
7:00 that's the type of kill that makes me alt-f4 for the night :D
didnt expect to see aimer7 in a destiny video
The kill feed is like your GPS keeping you updated on your teammates getting car wrecked lol
Bruhhh lol
I know I'm a bit late but one thing I realized is how important sound is for knowing who is near you and what they are doing. You can usually hear a dawnblade go off and check the bottom left to see if it's friendly. You can also hear every class type jump and, in combination of radar, kind of guess what position they are going for (are they flanking around a wall by dawnblade grenade eating?). You can usually hear a stasis shuriken and Jotun before it hits as well. You can hear a shotgun around a corner and know to keep distance or maintain higher elevation. Sound is nice. This is probably obvious though but just in case someone wasn't aware.
There's no such thing as being late :)
I totally agree with your comment. I even made a whole video about sound cues because I feel like they're super underrated by most people.
@@ShadowDestiny just watched it and still learned new things (distant sound doubling, super ending sound). Thanks for pointing that out
Came for the thumbnail, stayed for the great content
Much love!
7:39 my god. I have no words.
Le me who plays pve with nothing but grenade launchers: “hmm, interesting”
@@LordBruuh boom bois unite!
Hi, thank you very much for the video, it's great! At 2:19, there's a text excerpt displayed. Could you please provide the source?
Man.. didnt even know you before "Thunder" MOTW, now i dont know what i will do without your tips. you are so ON point similar to Nomad. Thanks for these vids
Excuse me... thanks for the content awesome BTW.
But what weaponn is 4:32 ? Ty
7:38 battlefield moment
Wait a second, are you the same Shadow from Garrison clan? Great video!
No?
@@ShadowDestiny oh okay just wondering because otherwise i would’ve played with you before
What snipers are these? I like the scopes
I was the guy in that reaper clip with the korean characters- on one hand im happy to be in a shadow video butttt getting reapered ☹️
I’m sorrrrry 😭
I shuffle between target and crosshair
What I do is focus on my target and center them on my screen. If you keep someone in the center of your screen you're most likely going to land your shots
Could you possibly make a video explaining more in detail on how to get the adored sniper? I know I need to get the quest forging your own path, but Idk how to get that quest to be available.
I won't be making a video on this quest especially since it has been out for a while now, but I can try to help you here. You'll need the Forging your own Path quest from Banshee-44 at the Tower. The quest may already be in your quest tab, so be sure to check there as well. Complete the objective, which is pretty straightforward, and you'll have yourself an S-tier sniper! Hope that helps :)
@@ShadowDestiny thank you very much Shadow❤️❤️ I feel like a idiot, I didn’t even check to see if I had it already, turns out I do😅 thank you for reminding me that it’s possible that o already have the quest
your segues are on a different level
What’s those weapons you were using?
I need one of those adept igneous hammers in my life.
Saaame
Do you have any tips on centering, I find that sometimes mine is terrible and other times I just flick and shoot on point, not sure how to improve my consistency??
I cover it in more detail in my sniper rifle guide
I always keep my eye on the ball (in this case guardian)
Facts!
What shader do you use on eos
Just realising that the radar is there and its broken is probably the single most crucial breaking point in learning how to play crucible(for some reason)
At least i didnt notice a single breakthrough of similar scale after that point in 1k is crucible hours
Hi I have a igneous hamer nur I only can do 80 DMG per Headshot do I need another one with rampage or is my god enough I have a 3/5 godroll
Always look at the target. Guess it's a habit I picked up as a kid playing baseball and learning to shoot in real life.
Anyone else notice how he got Ghost in the Night after taking damage at the start of the clip?
How do you do so that cloudstrike points fast?? 7:40
I even try to look At specific details on my target's head when possible and it becomes easier to hit the head dont know why it works that way tho xD
Haha that's good advice! That forces your eyes to become even more focused ;)
I am the Guardian of Japan.
I translated and saw everything myself!
Thanks for this great video!
That's awesome! Thank you for watching :)
me with ocd: "all. all is good."
I love sniping in all games, but I’ve never been able to get good at it in destiny😔
I feel like I’m a better driver now thanks shadow
Haha :) There is no driving advice in this video, I’m not responsible if you crash lmao 😂
Stop being humble I got my permit because of this video lmao jk good video
I do all of this, hands can't keep up with my brain...
not me, but a fellow D2 gamer says he turns all the HUD stuff offf and has a lcd timer clock just below his screen, and he knows the cooldown times for his abilities/supers. He finds the normal D2 screen too cluttered. 1.5 kd so he's no god player, but I have watched him rack up 50 kills, so it works for him.
LOL that sounds like insanity
Road is road
was really looking forward to the driving advice man :/
I'm pretty sure I focus on on the line of the video whether to skip or not in a ten min video.
What’s the shader on his heavy?!
