How To Quickscope in Call of Duty Vanguard


Even though sniper rifles in Call of Duty Vanguard are incredibly effective when picking off targets from a distance, some players prefer to get a little closer to the action, relying on their reactions to quickly scope in on a target and eliminating them before they even have a chance to react.

The art of quickscoping is one that is difficult to master due to the high levels of accuracy required alongside choosing the very best quickscoping loadout to gain every possible advantage. In this guide, find out how to quickscope effectively in Vanguard multiplayer.

How To Quickscope in Vanguard

As mentioned above, quickscoping relies on numerous factors in order to achieve consistent levels of success on the battlefields of Vanguard. The action is exactly the same as aiming down the sights when stationary but the sheer speed of the movement is what makes it so impressive to watch and to perform. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to master this art:

  1. Start off by aligning your target in the centre of your crosshairs.
  2. Once done, zoom into the scope then as soon as the scope crosshairs appear, fire the sniper to eliminate the target.

It sounds relatively straightforward but with everything else going on around you in a multiplayer map, it can be tricky to get the right timing window to score a clip worthy of the highlight reel. It will take some practice to master but once done, scoring multiple kills in quick succession with a sniper will be incredibly easy.
