Best PvE sniper rifle?

[WhiskeyWerewolf]

What's the best secondary sniper for PvE? I run exotic primary, so it has to be an energy. Currently using a Trophy Hunter with Vorpal and Lead from Gold, but I feel the zoom is a bit much and like using the Beloved more.

So, what's the PvE sniper?

You could try for sole survivor with triple tap/fourth times the charm and firing line (best damaging sniper in the energy slot if you can proc firing line) triple tap and vorpal on trophy hunter makes it one of the best solo damaging energy snipers honestly. In the long run it's preference on what you enjoy. If you want fireteam damage then sole survivor from gambit prime/reckoning (week of the knight bosses)

Honestly Sole survivor with Firing line is THE raid sniper for energy slot 2 options

THE god roll would be comprised off
Extended mag - Fourth times the charm - Firing Line [Backup mag]

Runner up
Extended mag - Triple Tap - Firing line [Boss spec]

u end up with a 1 shot mag at the end of several Triple tap procs wherehas Fourth time will proc until u eventually reach a perfect 0 shots so slapping on a boss spec on it is roughly 10% weaker than THE god roll

You might want to get another roll for that Trophy Hunter before the season ends. Try to get a vorpal/triple tap with extended mag or appended mag. This is the best dps you can do for bosses apart from some exotic snipers.

I happen to have one with Fourth Time and Firing Line, without extended mag. I suppose that'll do.
