A players completing Destiny's Crota's End Raid on his own was impressive enough, but what about completing it solo with one of the worst high-level guns in the game?

That's exactly what YouTube user Silverhawkz0 did using the No Land Beyond sniper, which was on sale from Xur this weekend. The gun is a bolt-action weapon, requiring a long reload after each shot.
A bolt-action rifle wouldn't be out of place in some military shooters, but compared to the fast-firing snipers in Destiny, it truly makes for a slow and terrible weapon. You could, for instance, fire off at least two rounds with other snipers while firing and reloading the No Land Beyond for another shot. In a game like Destiny where damage per second is important (or you're trying not to get butchered in The Crucible), No Land Beyond is simply a bad choice.
