Kraber bad legendary

Compared to the other legendary weapons the kraber just feels underpowered it doesn't even have a digital threat scope and I think everyone agrees that the six times scope is the worst sniper scope i...

@StarMystro Kraber would actually be useful if it didn't just down the target, but straight up kill it. Otherwise - like I said - It's just a wasted shot, unless you manage to hit a head through usually a purple knockdown shield.

@Peri_Longbow_plz how is downing someone late game a wasted shot ?
Team just push and go 3v2.
Imo Kraber is a great weapon, especially if your playing pre made.

    Wait, you and your team push after a Kraber shot? Did you mistake a sniper with a shotgun or something? Because last time I used any kind of sniper, it was from distances over 100 meters away from the target. And well, since Lifeline's separate reviving is a thing now, it's more easy than ever to basically nullify any attempt of downing targets from a distance, hence why AR's are usually the superior choice...

    98% of the times that I won or lost against the last team standing, it was with AR's, shotguns or pistols. I wouldn't bring it up if I didn't have some serious concern about a legendary weapon like the Kraber.

    Then again, several 'veterans' proclaim the game to be perfectly balanced or something.

      @Peri_Longbow_plzyea, the kraber can be used up close if need be. 100 + Damage in one shot guaranteed.

      I would take that and push. Maybe your using it in the wrong way. The Lifeline changes do suck but that's for another discussion 😏

        @xx_Dante2k_xx Yes, you can use a sniper up-close. But that's not the role of the sniper. And you also can't expect people to purely get a sniper, more specifically the Kraber only to use it on close range. At this rate you can use the Devotion, too. In the most cases, games end when the ring has roughly a diameter of 200 meters. Which is the only point of the game where snipers are still in some way useful.

        Again, what's the point of a - Let me highlight it - a one-shot kill sniper, if ranged takeouts are basically showing zero relevance. Revival is done quick. It takes 4 Kraber shots to kill a purple knockdown shield. I very rarely win a game with a sniper, or see people winning games with snipers. If they truly were that great, more people would use them. If some few people are using Kraber to end games, sure, but a little few aren't really drawing the rule here.
