First Longbow and now L-Star
So S9 reactive skin is apparently going to be for L-Star. I dunno maybe make the skins for guns that are actually used a lot lol like Spitfire/Hemlock/TT/Eva/Mastiff etc. Heck I will take another rea...

@BaldWraithSimp I agree, Eva8 would be the perfect weapon for it since it's in the meta now. But let's see what they do with the L-Star first, i hate that gun but if they buff it a lot we'll have to use it.
@DarthValtrex A lot of people don't use Longbow because it has too many attachments, even though some of them are not that necessary. For example maybe implementing Skullpiercer (with a slight nerf of it) in it just like precision choke with PK and Triple take would make the weapon much more picked imo.
@Cro_Pittt The headshots are still typically strong enough on the longbow. I think the issue is the body shots. Longbow body shot is 55 vs every other sniper is going to hit for 72 at worst but probably some place int he 80's.
You can spam the shots with the longbow faster. But you still have to line up those shots. It takes the same amount of time to line up charged Sentinel shot as it does to line up your first longbow shot. 2-3 taps from a sentinel and the enemy is down vs 4-5 taps with a longbow shot.
That's why I pass on the longbow or drop it for a sentinel every time I run snipers.
The longbow is great for third party sniping or situations where you get the first shot off. How ever even still, the Sentinel is a much better sniper and much stronger.
I think we don't see a ton of sniping play because running one leaves you with very little margin for error both with your primary gun and your sniping gun. I run them with a 99 and so long as I'm 1 clipping everyone with my 99, it's a solid combo. But if I'm not 1 clipping people, I need a more versatile secondary whether it's a shot gun, P2020 or wingman.
