FFS the Mastiff

If you're not going to do a effing thing about SBMM PLEASE do us a solid AND REMOVE THE MASTIFF!!!  Put it back into the gold weapon pool or something! The amount of times I've landed got a Mozambique or a p2020 and the other team gets a mastiff and kills half the lobby off rip is insane. Nerf it, remove it, something has to be done about it

  • @MrMidnight1990 The part about removing the Mastiff is off the table because we have skins for the gun. But my god the Peacekeeper and the Mastiff needs to change back to what it was in season 4 because the amount of times I have died to a mastiff and I hit 75 percent of my shots and they miss all of theirs then get shoot once in the head by it makes me think it’s not balanced for the normal loot pool
  • Really?  I'm always amazed by this because shotguns in general aren't that good right now.

    Yes, true, a Mastiff versus a Mozambique is no contest...but then again, the Moz can't compete with ANY weapon.  So...there's no solving that problem unless you want to ultra buff Mozambiques, P2020s, R.45s and Alternators. 

  • @MrMidnight1990 Compared to a peacekeeper im glad it was replaced by mastiffs... mastiff was already nerfed when they made the swap its not all that overpowered imo when compared to how overpowerred the gun was that it replaced
  • @KelRiever only shotgun worth grabbing is the EVA, and even then that's a stretch. Shotguns were only popular as secondaries when they were the undisputed kings of short-range combat, which is why the Peacekeeper reigned supreme for it's lifetime in the common loot pool.

    Mastiff and Mozam have woefully inconsistent performance at close and point blank range due to their spread and slow projectile speed, with the EVA only barely being "better" due to not having those problems. It's relatively low damage is an issue however. 

    I wish they buffed the P2020 to have the same projectile speed as R3 or R99. It'd make those times where getting a P2020 as your first and only weapon on drop much more bearable.
