Differences between scoping?

After reaching level 230 I FINALLY had someone mention me in a competitive as he saw me bother to scope with a Vandal while spraying, telling me that scoping while spraying would make the Vandal go haywire. Is there any page on the web or can someone simply give me an explanation to what each weapon's capacities are? I figured that Phantom would be capable of spraying if I did scope, seeing as it seems that I hold the weapon a bit more steady then? Apparently I was wrong? I am otherwise having issues with Phantom, Vandal, Spectre, Marshal and Operator. I am somehow capable of using Outlaw without a problem and I am not sure if Stinger can scope. 😅

just don't spray vandal isn't meant to be sprayed even if u do so, u can do it without ads like a few bullets burst

First two lines: Valorant Community huh? Next two lines: Sorry, I am still somewhat inexperienced, what does ads mean?

So scoping with any weapon is a single-bullet fire hm?

no, scoping does help on the recoil so u can spray better but why spray when u can just simply tap

That has been my problem with Sheriff, I am not truly capable of understanding how often I can tap to not spray or already get shot seven times before my second tap.

I would press the button less, I am supposed to be standing there, waiting for someone to walk on to my crosshair?

Well I am more than sure that indeed players have explained the case to me instead of calling me a fool.

I have no idea of what these extra-shorts like ads made by Valorant are known as, sorry.

ads is a term used in pretty much every shooter game, it's not exclusive to valorant

Skribbl273mo ago
And instead of explaining what it means, you call me for an even bigger fool. I give up with support... Tat

I think I've explained it before?
Skribbl27

So why say ads when one can say scoping? Or did I fail to mention asking what ads stands for?
mythea
mythea3mo ago
becuz it's shorter? and is a term used in every shooter game ? idk what's ur problem with that just telling u spraying isn't good tap if u can and u took it as people calling u fool

Well spraying exists for a reason is all that I am saying. I just asked for support to understand what each weapon is used for, and that seems to clearly have been too much for the Valorant-support here. I don't see where an A or a D is in scoping as all I then think about is advertisement. So I simply tried to ask as to what it could possibly stand for as I have never heard of it in Fortnite or wherever else.

I think I said that too? there's nothing wrong with it but if someone said something

And that's what then makes me believe that I am supposed to stay above someone shooting on their heads. And seeing as it's a tad bit difficult in a game where I can't randomly summon stairs, that just made things confusing. Sorry
mythea
mythea3mo ago
then u are likely doing it wrong
Skribbl27
Skribbl273mo ago
All that this only last person that I have played with has told me is that I should not be scoping with a Vandal, that's what made me ask if anyone could send me the descriptions of each weapon is all.
mythea
mythea3mo ago
u must be doing it too frequent
Skribbl27
Skribbl273mo ago
Ah, sorry. I seem to have spelled something wrong.
mythea
mythea3mo ago
u cab see the descriptions in game when u hover ur cursor on the weapons the description box is at the right bottom iirc it describes what ads will do like 3 shots burst crosshair follows recoil
Skribbl27

All I see then in difference from Vandal and Phantom is that the Phantom is silenced.
mythea
mythea3mo ago
phantom has easier recoil pattern to control

You have indeed taught me something now at least. That only a friend will ever explain my situation with words that I understand. Hopefully, this is farewell.
