    Once, I used wood blocks to get up the snow town wall. There were a few full d donators below, and once one stopped I unleashed my msr. Unfortunately, 5 hits from far away wasn't enough to kill the full d and he got away.

    My suggestion is to add armor piercing to sniper hits, but lesser the damage they do to balance them. Perhaps, it should be the opposite for shotguns. This would mean snipers would be more deadly to armored targets than they are now, but less to unarmored, also making headshots more critical. Although this would merely make it easier to kill heavily armored targets, whether that's too op i am unsure.

    Say if the msr did 8 hearts to a full iron and 24 to an unarmored target without this feature. If the msr ignored 50% of armor, it would do 16 hearts to the full iron and the same damage to the unarmored target as before. But as I stated in my post, to balance this feature, the damages of the snipers would have to be lowered to account for the extra damage to armored targets. For example the base damage of the msr could be lowered to 18 to an unarmored target. In this case the msr would do 12 damage to the full iron and 18 to . So, in summary, this feature means snipers do more damage to armored targets, and lesser damage to unarmored targets than they do now.

    *off topic:
    @LudenDan that wasn't late, a post that is 3 days late isn't really that late. A GD is more like a month or 2.

    *on topic:
    This would be OP I think. Just try to kill him in the first place, or just chase.

    I thought so too, but I won't say who rated it because it is their own opinion

    This would be WAY to OP!

    but maybe they should add back barret one shots to the head on a full iron because the barret is supposed to be the best gun in the game , but if it can't one shot a full iron to the head its not that OP as it should.

    I said the damage would be reduced in the snipers to balance the extra damage caused by the armor piercing. WHY DOES NO ONE READ THE FULL POST!!!

    Um. What? Your saying WITH armor, it does MORE damage, then an UNARMORED Target? Makes no sense at all!

    This.

    Making snipes deal more damage to people who are in armor makes using diamond armor useless because
    You don't have that protection.

    I didn't say that snipers would do more damage to armored targets than unarmored targets. I said that they would do more damage to unarmored and less to armored targets than they do now. An unarmored target would still be an easier kill. Also, this doesn't mean armor is useless. Bullets do not 100% pierce armor. I have no idea where you got that from, they only partially pierce armor. Anyway, as I said the damage of each gun would have to be lowered to account for this feature, so a full diamond would still be a hard target to kill.
    Did you even read the full post?
    Read the example. If you cant grasp the concept then I cannot help you.

    2 week reply... Nice. And listen, "So, in summary, this feature means snipers do more damage to armored targets, and lesser damage to unarmored targets." Your own quote. Your saying that Without armor, bullets from the rifle do less damage. With armor, they do more damage. This makes absolutely no sense.

    So you want more the snipers to do more damage to people with better armor and for it to do less damage for people with no armor? That makes sense.

    I'm sorry, but the logic in this idea is so astoundingly flawed, I can't support it. Just try and think about common sense before you post an idea next time.

    This is honestly pointless. It is saying that shots should do more damage to players with armor and less damage to players without armor.
    And sense* Nazi mode
