What happens when the bug occurs? PLEASE FIX SLING-SHOT PERK, IT'S BUGGED ! ! ! Per this perk, when a sniper rifle is placed in your sling, with blue armor the sniper rifle gets a blue 6x sniper scope. Makes sense... the sniper rifle gets the sniper scope. But when you "upgrade" to purple armor, you'd expect for the sniper scope to upgrade from the blue 6x to the purple 8x. But instead, the sniper rifle in your sling DOWNGRADES your 6x into a purple 4x... Obviously this is a bug/oversight as it makes no sense that upgrading your armor from blue to purple would downgrade the sniper-scope on your sniper rifle from from an actual sniper scope to a non-sniper scope. I cannot play Ballistic until this oversight has been corrected. -Spektr
What should be happening instead? While slinging a sniper rifle with Sling-Shot perk, snipers should get 8x scope when upgraded to purple armor instead of non-sniper optic 2-4x.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Use Ballistic.

Plz Fix Ballistic's Sling-Shot perk when slinging a sniper rifle and upgrading from blue to purple armor. Currently you are granted a blue 6x for the sling sniper rifle while wearing blue armor, but when upgrading to purple, the sniper-scope for your sling sniper rifle is no longer a sniper-scope at all... should be a purple 8x not a purple 4x. Makes no sense, clearly a bug.
