Mastiff and EVA-8 Season 5 Thoughts

First of all, Peacekeeper deserved to be Care Packaged.  However, Mastiff being a normal regular weapon makes the EVA-8 garbage tier now. Reason?  Both the Mastiff and EVA-8 have 0% leg damage red...

@Leo_the_Lion25 Haven't played yet to experience what it is like. How things feel and how they look on paper are two completely different things.

My guess is the Eva-8 will still have range on its side. From what I understood in the patch notes, all 8 pellets from the mastiff will be difficult at far ranges. Which is good. I am liking these changes and cannot wait to play!!

    @SolitaryMassacre To be honest, Mastiff does more damage at range than an EVA-8. You can hit someone for a good 50-60 with only 4-5 pellets from a Mastiff.

    EVA-8 will most likely only get 7-21 from range with only 1-3 pellets landing.

      @Leo_the_Lion25 I will have to play first to decide that.. I have dropped people at range with the Eva-8, never with the mastiff.

        @SolitaryMassacre Trust, just knowing that both weapons had 0% leg damage reduction was always a reason I changed my EVA-8 to the Mastiff when I got the weapon.

        Since the Mastiff is a regular weapon with the same 0% leg damage reduction. EVA-8 is just like an Alternator. Only good for holding the attachments until I find a Mastiff.

        I'll play the game later today myself whenever my download finishes. I just have bad download speed with big files.
