How many more topics do we need to create to NERF OR REMOVE THE SHOTGUNS?

I mean seriously, EVERY SINGLE fight ends with some noob shotgunning the whole squad, because they are too OP, no aiming required, no precision required, just point to a rough direction and that's it...

@CrashA321 Fine until season 5? I'm pretty sure the PK existed before then and it was a much bigger problem than the Mastiff.

Also every game has pretty much the same balancing ideas for shotguns. OP at close range but tickles opponents if they're more than 10 steps away. If anything Apex just gives shotguns more range and less dominance at point blank than other shooters do.

@heme725 And if that's the issue I could agree to nerfing the range, but in doing so the point blank shots should increase to 100 damage for a mastiff , and maybe the pk without a choke, (the range Nerf wouldn't work in this instance with the 100 point blank damage due to the choke on the pk) and the Eva 8 hits 8s and 16s at mid range on most accounts, not something I'm worried about.
