1kys vs Longbow: Someone school me please (Destiny)

Finally managed to pick up a new Longbow from a Crucible package tonight after getting around 8 pairs of boots in a row for my titan. Mine dropped with the LongView SLR10 scope, Grenadier, Handlaid Stock or Reinforced Barrel and Outlaw. I took it into Iron Banner to do some field testing with it. After trying it out, I'm not really sure it's any better than my 1kys. It's supposed to have higher aim assist (felt the same as my 1kys) but not much else is different. They have the same impact and RoF and pretty much feel the same. The big thing I noticed is I only received 3 rounds per ammo crate instead of 4 with my 1kys.
With that said, why is this sniper supposed to be the greatest thing out there?

- The longbow is *slightly* better - Kahzgul, 2016-08-23, 21:29
- Longbow is a pretty blue. IKYS and LDR are ugly orange. -
