I bought it because Cody told us not to

Best reason to buy a gun ever. :P

Second, Knucklehead Radar also gives you more super ability when you kill the minions of the darkness. That's also BOSS. Pretty sure it does a third thing, too. Yay for third thing!

I got mine long ago in an engram. I laughed when I saw it available for upgrade. I'm sure there are a lot of raging warlocks.

I'm hoping for Starfire Protocol soon. It looKS good and I like the perks.

I am curious if starfire protocol stacks with gift of the sun, giving you 3 fusion grenades? That said, having flame shield twice as often with the double melee makes the Claws of Amhamkara better, IMO.

It does not stack, you still only get 2 fusion grenades. And the specs on the database website don't match the actual armor (no damage bonus stuff). Also, shaders don't affect its appearance. Overall, I'm pretty underwhelmed by Starfire Protocol, probably going to scrap it for the Shard to upgrade my Claws…

Running a 15-minute Weekly nets you nine coins. If you use them all for Heavy ammo Synths, you can buy 42,750 glimmer's worth. Saves a ton of time, especially if Xur's not selling something you're interested in.

At this point, Glimmer is a commodity, since the whole upgrade fiasco is pricey. I do buy a handful of Heavy Synths once I reach about 23,000 glimmer, but otherwise, I'm now constantly on the low thousands when it comes to Glimmer...

Really the high glimmer cost of upgrades is my only complaint. But I also know I'm one of the crazy one's who upgraded 8 exotics last week and will probably upgrade another 3 or 4 this week (if I can get time to earn the glimmer before I leave for the holiday)

That's my position this week. I already upgraded 3 things yesterday, and I'd like to do 2 more, but I don't know if I'll be able to get another 15k by tonight. We'll see I guess. ;)

I really need to think ahead and save my glimmer more when Xûrday approaches; I've been using it on other upgrades that really could've waited. ;)

If you really need an arc sniper for arc burn weeklies, it's alright, but other than that, unless you're a collector... probably don't bother.

There are many better Legendary snipers for PvE, and in Crucible the invisibility is largely useless. It only really has utility on large maps like Skyshock, First Light, and Bastion, but since none of them are in a regularly available playlist...

I bought it because Cody told us not to, and I never regretted it, despite already having two amazing snipers (Epitaph and Boss). It's a gem of a weapon; beautiful sound, six-rounds, and high impact... Completely unleveled, it wrecked that nightfall, and I leveled it up more since. I've never taken it into Crucible, but I've gone up against a large number of them. Even with the glare, they're tough to fight, because you have to calculate the head's position. I often end up hitting the chest, giving them time to return fire or duck behind cover.

In PvE, the high impact and mag is invaluable, the whole invisibility is a neat perk, but not the selling point.
In PvP, it's got six rounds and decent stability, with the invis being a neat gimmick that can actually save your life against other snipers (also, people flanking you might not spot you right away).

Solid gun, get it.

But my final boss has better rate of fire and range than P&T, and I have the return missed shots directly into the chamber perk

Great! I don't have Final Boss, nor do I play enought Crucible to ever have a great chance of buying or having it drop. P&T dropped on me in my first VoG, so I leveled it the soonest, so it's always been my primary sniper.

When fully upgraded it's ROCK solid, has 6 rounds in the mag, and hits like a train. Plus I love the sound of it. ;)

I find the radar-when scoped feature to be useful in both PvE and PvP; I don't like getting snuck up on.

The invis-ability is very situational, it's not an all-round feature, but Sniper Rifles aren't "all-round" guns anyway (to me). I've used the invis to sneak up and revive teammates in PvE, and it's actually really handy when sniping from the high-turret on Bastion (just one example).

And it WRECKS in Arc Burn strikes.

If I only had enough coins for one I'd buy P&T again, hands down.
