Guide:Ph3nom3non's Guide To The Basics of Quick-Scoping

Quick scopeing involves using the sniper rifle (Bolt action) to scope in quickly and fire the gun instantly killing the target. People wonder why quick scoping doesn't work in some instances and I will explain how to here.

Part 1: The basics

Alright the basics of this are pretty simple. first you need to get a person in view. Once they come into view thats when it happens. Scope in with the sniper and fire once their in your line (You get a good 3-4 secounds to do the shot. A good time to scope in is when their name appears over their head meaning your gun is aimed at them. Be sure to stand perfectly still when fireing the gun or the bullet WILL curve. (Serious it will monster curve unless it has 100 acc)

Part 2: Drag shot

This is the quick scope with an added motion. Players are contantly moving therefore you need to be. so with this you scope in quickly but during your 2-3 sec delay you have the person run by and you drag the scope onto them as you fire. you end up getting a drag scope where the gun doesn't release the bullet until the end of the drag. Thats where the player your aiming at is uaully located. Make sure to keep your character still for this but once you scope out start moving again so you don't get shot.

Part 3: Quick swap

Once you fire a sniper there is the annoying bolt reload. This is the way around it. apon scopeing out from your shot. swap back and forth between weapons. you should get and extra 1.5 secounds of time between your shots. This really counts (Good way to do this set your mouse wheels click to be prev weapon and have your two weps you swap between be snipers.) An exapmle is if I were to shoot my TPG-1 and kill someone upon scopeing out I would immediatly switch to my Artic wolf or just back to the TPG.

Part 4: Where to set up

A good map to practice this would be oil rig. The long hall makes it easy to determine where your shooting and is a long enough distance to tell if your doing it right. You don't need NX weapons to be able to do this an L96 works just fine. a gear suggestion would be light/recon vest, recon helmet and, urban camo
