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...

@SolitaryMassacre I think the damage falloff would be good, but making the shotguns have really high spread at hip-fire as well is too much. Think about it, if you had to ads with a shotgun every time you want to kill someone at really close range, you wouldn’t do so well.
I don’t know how much range you are talking about when hip-firing with the Eva 8 and pk, but Eva 8 definitely doesn’t do like 70+ damage with one shot at range. Even one shot at close range with the Eva 8 doesn’t do 70+ unless you hit headshot. Pk does have a longer range, but in terms of mid range, you cannot hip fire and reliably deal damage without a charged choke.
Mastiff is actually pretty balanced, as it’s a package weapon.
The pk being charged after you ads is a feature, I think the feature is fine. It’s kind of like charging the havoc with the single shot and switching to auto, which allows you to shoot instantly as if you had three turbocharger.
Anyway, if you increase the spread so much that’d you would have to ADS all for every shot, the shotguns would then lose to many smgs in close range.

@Sir_Named I agree. The hip fire spread shouldn't be obnoxious. I will create a picture soon with something I think is reasonable to better express my thoughts.
Also, if you look at my videos, the PK and Mastiff at the same range do almost equal damage.. I don't think that a pick up weapon with resuppliable ammo should be on par with a crate weapon. Thats why the PK needs a nerf.
But you can't charge the havoc with a single shot then switch to auto, that was a glitch that is now patched.
But I do think both hip fire spread and damage fall off (for all guns) is needed.
