How To Become A Good Halo 2 Sniper

Sniping is one of the hardest things to do in Halo 2. It takes
tons of practice and hours of playing to get good. Actually,
some people never get better. Their foundation is built on bad
habits. I've decided to come up with a set of guidelines to help
you along.

-Always move around. Never camp out in one spot, no matter how
good you think it is. It also makes you harder to hit.

-Always aim for the head. A headshot is an automatic one-shot
kill.

-Check your motion sensor. You'll spend a lot of time trying to
find people so it's good to zoom out every once in awhile to see
if anyone's coming. Try doing this after every couple of shots
or so.

-Unless you're incredibly skilled with the sniper, please do not
try to use the sniper in every situation(i.e. in close and the
enemy has a shotgun).

-Take good shots only. This kind of goes with the point above.
Do not jump of a building and try to no-scope someone across the
map. Take shots that you know have a good chance of hitting
their target.

-Aim with the left thumbstick. It keeps the targeting reticule
steadier. Use the right thumbstick only for minute adjustments
to get that needed headshot.
