- Today we're ranking every non-sunset sniper rifle into a tier list for Destiny 2 PvP. This video explains the Crucible rankings of each sniper and gives you an idea of what snipers are the absolute best.
This tier list evaluates the ability of each weapon to excel in a variety of PvP modes including Trials of Osiris, Competitive, and 6v6 Control. This means we're evaluating perks, stats, and the overall "feel" of each weapon to determine its ranking.
If you enjoyed the video, leaving a like helps a lot and I really really appreciate it.

New Snipers:
-I'd probably put the Twilight Oath in the A or B tier. It has some great perks and the new version of it can roll with much higher range than the previous curated version ever could. Low zooms got buffed, overall amazing. Can't take out supers effectively whatsoever.
-I'd put Tranquility in A tier now that it has snapshot. It gets bonus points for sounding SO insanely cool haha ;)
-I'd probably put the Shepherd's Watch in the A tier. Great perks, decent stats, but 50 zoom (I prefer 45).
-I'd probably put Long Walk in the B tier. It's a decent sniper with interesting perks like Overflow (never reload!), but it's a 50-zoom aggressive with kinda poor stats and Frozen Orbit basically does everything it can do except better.
-Father's Sins: Similar to Twilight Oath. A tier. Super super visible, clean scope. Can get opening shot under pressure. Even without snapshot, that is a deadly combo. I'd still go with snapshot though.
-Thoughtless: B tier. Decent stats, decent perks, but reticle sways a lot when strafing.
-Silicon Neuroma: S tier. Amazing stats, snapshot and opening shot is the best perk combo in the game. High impact, low-ish zoom. Good for aggressive snipers and damage boosters like Lumina or CWL.
Wouldn’t change any- look exactly where they need to be
@@jamiescott1062 thanks for the feedback!
@@ShadowDestiny anytime broham- any dead eye like u makes a list a “ok” like me(just being real) really shouldn’t think we know better! Get those picks bro!😎
Ah,an good review indeed
I would change whisper to at least a b tier
The chaperone got me lol
Honestly when I started to treat it like a sniper, I got better with it!
Bruh
Me too
Put on Lunafaction Boots and Empowering rift on a Warlock. 24 meter headshot kill range
Same lol
Just blew my mind. If a weapon is pointed to the left then it’s a kinetic. If it’s pointed to the right then it’s an energy.
;)
I JUST FOUND THAT OUT BOW READING YOUR COMMENT. WATTTT
Ppl are really finding out about this now? 😭
@@bruh-fw7op get outta here w this shit, why would anyone know this 😂 such a random fact that if you aren’t told it randomly at some point you will never know.
@@nebula8893 uhhh unless you have half a brain and put two and two together. Not that hard to figure out Einstein.
Me using Occluded Finality: Is that a players head oh wait it just Saturn never mind.
LOL
occluded is the best sniper in the the game with snap elemental capacitator
@Aidan Hall I rolled one with Full Bore + accurised rounds + snapsights and Iron Reach AND range MW. The range was so much overkill that I'm actually looking for a roll that doesn't waste perks lol
Yeah, occluded is just.
A telescope that shoots.
~ your freindly neighborhood catgirl, Enju~
You really did not need to add that in
I actually started dying when you said “Im actually a shotgun”
Did you happen to read the perk on screen at that time lol ;)
Yeah I did you sir have earned my great respect
@@ShadowDestiny I think I heard you laughing a bit when talking about the chap
Its nice to see chaperone on here. This person clearly knows their trade well
I miss you, why couldnt you be the new nightfall weapon?
@@bonesofeao3968 i dont know... its a little sad. A friend always said "id love to see hung jury return", to which i would always reply "only if i get split shifter". We were on the verge of greatness. We were this close.
But the Plug One seems to do a decent job for a good destiny 2 version, just like epicurean did before it got sunset.
I have again proven my superiority
Ikr 🤣
@@bonesofeao3968 was his name hung jury ? I take it by his comment. You get one ?
Shadow: Occluded finality has a ridiculously long range scope.
Me who's watching the gameplay: I mean, like doesn't look like your having a problem with it.
If you can get used to the scope, I get more free headshots with Occluded than any other sniper. There's something weird going on with the aim assist, or accuracy or whatever.
You trying not to laugh while talking about chappy was hilarious
Your points are very well formatted and have an excellent style of editing with good flow. You also offer good reasons behind your picks. Love the video! Keep up the good work.
Thanks that means a lot!
And he added timestamps, what a guy.
@@zZ_GHOS7_Zz of course!! :)
3:28 fucking christ you've just changed my life. Have my sub
@@sealthrux oh shut up. Sorry that your day is shitty, hope it gets better. But I thought this was pretty cool too.
How I figured this out was by looking at Rare weapons like botheration or Aachen which are both kinetic and energy but they were facing different ways
@@pavedog4life953 lmao shut him down faster than a power outage
@@sealthrux you must’ve had a shit day I feel sorry for you
@@sealthrux 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Seeing the dreaming city pvp map really hurt my soul. I miss that map a lot
Yeah i remember 1v1ing my dad a lot and that was our favorite map
Got me dying with the chaperone
The HuckleBloodyMarry
Shadow: puts whisper in D tier
Also shadow: "alright boys, 999 kill streak time"
This is excactly what i just wanted to watch😂
Love ur vids
been waiting for this one such a good video and really good for newer players who don’t know the best snipers good job
Really cannot overstate how helpful and insightful this video was in terms of what to keep and what to dismantle as well as which perks to look out for. Thanks Shadow.
Subbed. 👍
Incredibly well made video. Even learned some things I didn't expect to (weapons pointing a direction designating what slot they are)! Props to the video editing, content - everything. Excellent video! Thank you.
Ty
I would put bite of the fox in S tier, its 43 zoom is actually really nice for that larger FOV, it has higher handling than frozen orbit, and the snapshot opening shot roll is prolly the best you could ask for on a sniper
Plus its kinetic right? not very many of those that are good and as obtainable.
i thought it was sunset
@@marcushunt-muggah3491 some are but some were 1360 and are now permanent
It's such a solid sniper, I used it to get the revoker(which got sunset about a season after) and got pretty good at sniping with it, I miss mine a lot since it it sunset
If it wasnt for the arrow crosshair then I would have def used it. Prefer the lil circle like on orbit.
Best unsunset roll i have has threat detector and moving target so not the best rolls either.🙁
Thank you for another great video! I just started out with snipers in pvp and your videos have been a huge help :D I can't wait to watch more and catch a stream or two.
Your videos are such a chill vibe. Enjoyed your tier list very much
Cloudstrike is literally just Kirin's horn turned into a gun
That titan flossing tho
there was a titan flossing??? I didn't notice LOL
Your content is amazing and very in depth, plus the quality is fantastic
Thoughtful grading and solid info! Ty
With your sniping ability, any sniper with a high handling function will be pretty good.
They nerfed your shotgun boys it's time to learn to snipe 🤣
Shotguns are getting nerfed again soon lol, Bungie confirmed!
Lmao I knew shotguns would get nerfed soon so I got better at sniping
@@D4Bean no chance they nerf my shotgun. I love it too much. I mapped so many people with it...
@@D4Bean I had a keen fascination with snipes since I started playing so I'm already prepared for a snipe meta.
@@ShadowDestiny did they really? Thank F. And this is coming from a shotgun ape. They have way too much range with the movement potential in this game.
Where did they confirm future nerfs at?
Pretty solid video.....gameplay is incredibly sharp ... keep em comin ♠️
I’m glad a video like this was made I was pretty ok at snipping in D1 and I really wanted to try in D2 this had helped me with me in witch one I should go for. Thanks a lot ❤️
love to hear it! Happy sniping :)
seeing all these sunset maps is bringing a tear to my eyes 😢
My guy puts Chaperone up there but doesn't talk about any of the other "short range snipers" like Blasphemer. SMH
ye but isnt blasphemer sunset?
@@vihantiar6996 na
@@vihantiar6996 yes but they reissued it
@@vihantiar6996 you can get blasphemer from pit of heresy now
Or the very odd addition of the multishot sniper "Riiswalker"? It has 100 range with the right perks very good for those long to short range encounters.
Great video and great clips!
I like your editing and style a lot my guy. Keep up the work
means a lot man thanks
The far future was my new favorite sniper, my first roll last season was quickdraw+opening shot. One of the most consistent feeling snipers I've ever used. After the nerfs to quickdraw though it just handles way too slow.
it's not that bad, quickdraw nerf hurts the most on the lowest handling snipers and far future isn't one of them, it can have frenzy which is usually up all the time
Just farm it for Fluted barrel +handling masterwork combined with sniper dex and sniper targeting. It feels like it did pre nerf
Consider surplus. Mine feels just as snappy as I need it 90% of the time and I can usually build into keeping it more consistent. Worth the effort for me considering how much fun it is to use
I'd like to note that the cloudstrike (my favorite as well) does not need to get a precision kill to bring the lightning. You only need to get a precision hit. So if for some reasonnyou hit a Guardian in the head and they don't die, it will still summon the lightning.
I thought you were an MnK player until I started watching your sniper guide! The fact that you do so well with a controller makes me very excited to pick up sniping again!
Great Content as Always! Thanks!
You can hear shadow holding in the laugh when he added chaperone
Note on the occluded finality: zoom over 50 gets bonus aim assist, and zoom below 50 gets reduced aim assist, as per the recent (ish) nerfs. This makes occluded finality feel like it has opening shot 100% of the time even on a roll without opening shot. For this reason it is s-tier if you don’t mind the zoom, which I feel people become trapped in the mindset that high zoom = bad.
Thats how it used to be pretty much. A lot has changed so yea ur pretty much right. But low zoom allows for more “cod-like” clips which is why ppl like em
Yeah, I've been really enjoying the occluded finality, it feels like I can't miss. As long as you don't try to use it in close range, you're fine (and even then, cuz of the high range stat, this thing hits so many noscopes).
Another solid video. Nice work dude. Keep em coming!
I’ve got an Omniscient Eye with Full bore/Fluted barrel, Accurized/Tac Mag, Snapshot/Mulligan, Handling MW. Lemme know if you wanna give it a spin for some clips.
Lately the Snapshot/No distractions Frozen Orbit has been my main squeeze tho.
As a titan shotty main, I got challenged from my buddy’s to hunter snipe for the next two weeks. I got Adored and the ornaments at the time, but I was never that great with the snipe. Then I found you via the collaboration with PattyCakes while looking to get back into sniping. I just wanted to know, with witch sniper to start again - and what do you know, this vid popped up. It’s nice when things work out 😁
You got my sub, excellent content!
Thank you man! I'm glad the YT algorithm served you well haha
I was already subbed but if I wasn't the chaperone in this list would've gotten me lmfao
16:04 Eye of Sol has very good aim assist though. You can miss the other player by far but randomly get headshots.
i remember seeing you on instagram with less than 500 followers. now you’re up here. good job man
Much love
I first found out about cloudstrike from this video earlier today, and I just got it about an hour ago so thank you for bringing this weapon to my attention as this perfectly suits my play style.
Haha that’s awesome, glad you’re liking it ⚡️⚡️
"Can this weapon get snapshot" the tierlist
Personally occluded finality is an S I found myself hitting more shots than adored even against apes up close
Yeah same
Nice vid, I dig the visuals
Thank you sir
Fantastic video, and thumbnail too
Thanks 😊
So A tier huh? 😭
I like how you do your videos and your voice is nice. Subscribed!
my man putting in the work for this one 🤝
Oh I've been waiting for an updated one
Absolutely fantastic. Nice to have an up-to-date list to reference now if I want to track down a energy sniper as well as perk recommendations. Keep up the good work!
After watching this vid, I went back to look at my Succession and Bite of the Fox sr's. The Succession has slideways and snapshot. My Fox has snapshot and opening shot. Your vid helped me appreciate my rolls more than I had previously. Excellent review, thanks!
Very glad to hear it! Enjoy those snipers 🔥
Damn, this video is helpful af, time to grind eye of sol
good vid, bit painful with the classic youtuber plugs and into, but happy that takes up about 2% of the vid, respect the grind
That’s the goal man. Ya gotta do a few things, but I don’t want it to feel burdensome to the viewer so I get it done as fast as possible
Thanks for the video
Just subscribed to the channel and I love your tier lists they are very helpful. Side note: my Bite of the Fox has Fullbore, Steady Rounds, Rapid Hit, and Explosive Payload. It feels good to me but I want know what you think.
Great video
great job :) when I watch your videos, It really makes me try snipers, but I'm very bad yet :( I'll keep trying for sure :)
U are a very good sniper bruh!
Thnx for the vid!
Awesome video
I love how you can hear him cracking up when talking about Chaperone
great vid - missing SHEPHERD'S WATCH though
thx for the advise
You got more precision shots in the background footage than I didi in my whole destiny 2 career
13:55 Seraph Rounds has the hidden benefit of increasing your zoom factor in the same way that ricochet rounds did a few years back. This isn’t a stat boost to your range as if you had Accurized Rounds, but is instead a mini Rangefinder.
Dam this guy cracked, imma sub
I love how you can barely contain your laughter during The Chaparone
Also, occluded finality is actually a pretty good sniper in my opinion. I haven't sniped much since back in the revoker days, but with opening shot and it's high zoom adding to his aim assist value, that reticle gets pretty magnetic even on mouse and keyboard
Love my bite of the fox with SS/OS and thankfully just barely missed being sunset. The chevron reticle took a min to get used to but it’s not so bad anymore and I feel like jump shots with this and icarus makes it surprisingly accurate
Great video. I'm subscribing! Do u play on xbox?
I'm on PC but I play on controller
Never knew about that thanks 👍3:29
Just got a snapshot moving target long shadow today, absolutely great for 6v6 and although it’s not the absolute best, it puts in some serious work
Came here to see if the frozen orbit was any good cause I got a snapshot moving target roll earlier today in crucible. Definitely happy to hear it’s so good
Love my moving target/snapshot frozen orbit and would love to get my hands on an eye of sol with the same perks.
I'm eyeing up that uzume and praedyth's, seems like they have potential
what an incredible video, thanks shadow.
the chaperone got me laughing
Nice work shadow. Darci is my favourite sniper and I feel is often overlooked. I'd put it in A tier simply because of it's ease of use. It's a great sniper to use when learning to snipe ✌🏻
I was really tempted to put it in A tier!!
Occluded finality is S tier! Once you get used to the zoom it's so sticky to people's heads. I have a half decent mulligan opening shot roll, wish I had your roll!
Would love to see your thoughts on the Uzume now that the adept version actually has dropped from the nightfalls.
glad i got an old snapshot/ opening shot eye of sol, things a beast
ME TOO!! It's my go-to sniper at the moment. So so good
I got an Occluded Finality with snapshot + demolitionist and when combined with cold snap grenades let’s you take out large groups of enemies from across the map with ease then refuel your nade to do it again. For some reason I actually prefer it’s Hubble telescope zoom to other snipers, probably because of how clean I think it’s scope is. Definitely one of my favorite snipers.
That gl shot at 15:07 made me flinch 😂
I love my succession with reconstruction and snap never worried about reloading
You got me with Chaperone, even tho I was waiting for Eriana’s vow lmao. That shit is a small sniper
I found it funny about the chapy and how he laughed in between his words
😂 chaperone, you were holding back your laughter saying that stuff in video 😂😂
This is exactly what i needed. 10/10
glad to hear it :)
I rolled both a snapshot opening and a snapshot eye of the storm. Ran with both for a while. Eye of the storm is a must have over opening shot fro me as it takes a slight bit longer to line up targets with the zoom... yet I also find it easier as I’m playing on controller and that extra zoom Really helps. I like to pair it with the one mod that restores radar immediately after ads so I can snap in and out and still keep track of what’s happening on the field as the higher zoom does hurt forward awareness. Probably not for everyone but currently my favorite.
I like your video. I love cloud strike a lot. And frozen orbit.
thanks! Those are awesome snipers for sure
Something about the reticle on the succession makes it my favorite
Honestly I'd bump up occluded finality. I do completely understand the complaints with the zoom cause it's basically the hubble telescope but as someone who crutches shotgun HARD, I was using occluded finality and the new exotic sidearm and I was having a ton of fun with it and was succeeding with doing well with the sniper :)
If I have to stop, frozen orbit for me with my snapshot/no distractions and handing MW w/ target adjuster. Absolutely amazing
You tried to make that chape bit as serious as possible lmao I could hear the smile crack 💀💀
I love using high zoom snipers, mostly because of my unique aim style. So I'd put Succession + Occluded Finality in the S-tier, especially because high impact frames can intrinsically 1-shot supers. Very good video overall!
That’s cool, like I said in the occluded finality section, it’s a/s tier if you don’t mind the zoom! Use whatever works for you 🔥
🔥 🔥
Shadow,
I have a Eye of Sol with Tunnel Vision and Snapshot, also Bite of the Fox with Moving target, and Snapshot. Both amazing snipers. I have an ambitious assassin and Snapshot Frozen orbit which is not too shabby. I have not gotten another with snapshot and a better perk next to it.
I’m not a particularly adept sniper I usually run pulse rifle/shotgun and stick to mid range engagements and then clean up with my shotty but I’ve been sniping more lately and I have a long shadow with moving target/snapshot and I have to say it feels so much better than my adored
The benefit of occulated finality having crazy zoom is that it also gets crazy aim assist. I got a max range one with snapshot opening shot and it feels almost broken, as long as the map is big.
A moving target, snapshot sights longs shadow finally dropped for me and oh boy is it crispy!
Sounds great!
