Can we nerf the Peacekeeper finally?
This gun is stronger than the Mastiff, and the Mastiff is a gold weapon - Developers, how to you rationalize that? Here's a few videos of me in the firing range doing one shot with the PK then Masti...

My bad. The videos now work lmao. I didn't realize that. But just watch them, this thread is comparing a crate weapon to a random pickup. Random pickups should be way below the damages of any crate weapon - ergo, NERF THIS POS.
You don't really have to be that close to your target. I lose to this gun with ranged weapons because they take my shield out in one shot, then take my health out in another. Add the fact this is a squad game and 3rd partying seems to be the only way people play - you got a PK tearing through you plus at the very least one other person hitting you. You can't even run away because one more shot from a PK and you're dead. I have had many people hide behind corners, charge the PK choke, pop up and end me. Like, BS. Even if you rush them, you close the distance and now even without it choked you're dead. Its just stupid you don't even have to aim with it.
With that said, the ONLY nerf I think this gun needs is a HUGE hip fire window. Now, if you hip fire, you HAVE to be super close to have all the projectiles hit. This is the breakdown I think it should be:
Hip Fire - HUGE box that only allows like 1-3 projectiles to hit you
ADS NO CHOKE - Now the hit box is shrunk to where it is now
ADS CHOKE - Normal behavior but max of 90 damage not 110.
The problem with this gun is nobody freaking aims. They always hip fire which allows them to move more easily, evade, and rush. Something I can't do with my Flatline or similar gun because I HAVE to ADS to hit my target at that range.
@SolitaryMassacre for it to be so strong they should make it hard to control. Make the recoil tougher.
A single clip should not be able to wipe an entire team. Just saying 🙂
So sick of getting hit for 90+ every damn shot. The PK doesnt need bolts and doesnt need 6 bullets in the mag and doesnt need such a common drop rate
- @Benchwarmerbrew Yeah, PK is the most broken thing i ever seen on any fps, but Respawn don't care, they keep nerfing r-99 and wingman so hard but they dont want to touch PK, probably the devs love the weapon because make noobs kill like pros.
- @audiofilomx You really don’t have to say it is super broken, because it isn’t. It is powerful, but that’s just it. It used to be much more powerful, but then they nerfed it, and I could really feel the difference. The also didn’t nerf the wingman that hard. Plus, the r-99 needed balancing, or did you think that it was balanced already?
Balancing weapons on different platforms would be a good idea, but I think the devs are working towards crossplay, where it wouldn’t work.
The pk is not the best gun at any moment. There is a thing called long range, where the choke on pk does like 10 damage. Snipers or assault rifles at this range would easily destroy.
NERF this stupid gun. I hate starting a game for a person to hit me for 110-121 damage off rip. No Skill whatsoever in that.
Reduce the damage to 8 from 10 and the pellets from 11 to 10. Simple fix, the weapon now does 80 damage to the body if they land.
