How good is Omniscient Eye
While sniper rifles have consistently hovered around average potency in the meta for seasons on end, Omniscient Eye brings enough new perks to the table to make it a solid option.
In PvE, Omniscient Eye primarily excels in being a more general pick for activities like Nightfalls. Other weapon types are typically still chosen over snipers (and other snipers, like The Supremacy, best Omniscient Eye), but this one can be an alright pick if you’re looking for a Solar option.
Omniscient Eye performs similarly in The Crucible. Even though it holds a solid amount of top-tier perks in its pool, it doesn’t bring much that other options lack.
Best alternatives:
The Supremacy | Sniper Rifle | Special | Kinetic | Last Wish Raid | Kinetic Tremors,Bait and Switch | |
IKELOS_SR_v1.0.3 | Sniper Rifle | Special | Solar | Operation: Seraph's Shield | Incandescent |

- Perk 1: Lone Wolf, Mulligan, No Distractions, Envious Arsenal, Fourth Time’s the Charm, Lead from Gold, Elemental Capacitor.

Omniscient Eye PvE god rolls
PvE Roll: All-Around | |
---|---|
Barrel | Fluted Barrel |
Magazine | Tactical Mag |
Perk 1 | Fourth Time’s the Charm (also good: Envious Arsenal) |
Perk 2 | Precision Instrument |
Masterwork | Handling |
We’ll start with Fluted Barrel, Tactical Mag, and a handling masterwork for our PvE roll. This results in increased magazine size, handling, reload speed, and stability, all of which are important.
Fourth Time’s the Charm in column three lets you dump tons of ammo in one go. This also lets you easily stack Precision Instrument, which is our choice for the final column. That said, Envious Arsenal is also worth mentioning in the third column, which is the pick if you’re looking to use Omniscient Eye in a damage rotation.
Omniscient Eye PvP god rolls
PvP Roll: All-Around | |
---|---|
Barrel | Fluted Barrel |
Magazine | Steady Rounds |
Perk 1 | Lone Wolf |
Perk 2 | Snapshot Sights |
Masterwork | Stability |
For PvP, we’ll start with Fluted Barrel, Steady Rounds, and a stability masterwork to focus mostly on stability and handling.
Lone Wolf, a perk new with Episode: Revenant, is our pick for the first main column. All three of the stats it boosts are helpful, and snipers typically keep you away from teammates (making it trigger more frequently). As for our final perk, the classic choice of Snapshot Sights is best.
