@LordloshBangNo pro has ever said the mastiff is OP wince becoming a base weapon.
The gun is actually straight garbage due to its rng damage. I have seen the best players loose games due to hitting 13 damage.
Shotguns are powerful but what the mastiff needed wast a nerf it was a rebalance of how it works. No gun should be a lottery if you will do damage or not.
Mastiff should have been made a slug bullet that does 50 to the body and 100 to the head. Requiring decent aim to maximize it but with 50 damage set for a body shot you would at least know what to expect and it would actually be viable. (PS 50 damage at close range but should drop heavily anything past 15 meters to a max of 15)
Plenty of pros have said that. If you don`t watched their stream, its your problem.
There is also million videos in youtube where you can type Mastiff OP or broken and they are done by streamers.
The so call 13 damage is if you you land just 1 pellet, meaning you just hit him barely. That mean you didn`t aim quite well.
People should have understand how Mastiff works till now, and how to use it.
Also how the server works as well, and why you are dying behind a cover, door or angle.
Every single streamer/pro are using Mastiff as their main secondary weapon, unless they chill in pubs.
Every single good player, know that Mastiff is the way to go, otherwise you are putting yourself in a handicap mode.
This pretty much sums it all:
He didn`t miss a shot with the Eva8 and was strafing and crouching like a mad, while Gibby just move straight forward to him and still killed him ...
