PvP needs a perfect roll waaay more than PvE (Destiny)

Here's the thing: In PvE, the most important stat is light level, period. Everything else can go by the wayside and you have plenty of time to line up shots, you can use pretty much whatever gun you like from the category of "optimal" for a fight (like, "use a sniper rifle here" but it could realistically be almost any sniper).

In PvP, you need every mote of advantage that you can get because the margins are so small. Party Crasher +1 kills from like 4 pixels farther away than Invective, but that means you're going to lose that 1v1 almost every time. So extra aim assist, a chance for an extra round, faster reloads... That's *critical* stuff to give you just enough edge to turn a fight in your favor. This week's sniper roll is awesome for PvP. For PvE, as you say: Who cares? Use whatever you want because the margins are huge there.
