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...

* this update, the worst they ever did. Bring the peacekeeper back. I hate that they have too nerf every single item in the game as much as they have done. I stopped playing fortnite because all they did was make the game so noob friendly and now respawn is following in their footsteps. If they keep this * up then im done playing this game. Have banked over 1300 hours til now, dont seeing it getting alot nore after this....

Love the character buffs and nerfs also the new char, all the other things, pfffff

I can’t land a headshot with Mastif, also no hop-up, I think it’s only good for super close fights.

    We must be playing different games because Mastiff does way more than 11 damage. 11 is from a Gibby/Caustic and you only hit them with 1 pellet.

    Not to mention Season 5 current has no hit reg issues with most of the weapons.

    Besides the bugs, Mastiff and Havoc are current strongest weapons for Season 5.

      People keep forgetting that +100 damages are on paper and only happened “if” all pellets from a Mastiff (or PK) lands on the body. in other words even in pretty close range all pellets might hit the target but some can hit hands or legs and cause the total damage goes down. 
      By increasing the spread factor of the pellets and removing the chocking hop-up, the chance of hitting targets in mid range or above with 104 is zero. This can rarely happen in very close range combats.

      while in  EVA8 you won’t see such spread and all pellets in shots are sitting in a close circle and dealt damage in that is more constant.

      I still believe this Mastif is much weaker than season 4 PK and this change was a big nerf to shotgun weapons.

        The head multiplier on the mastiff needs to be reduced and the ADS speed the weapon tracks with should be reduced as well I also reduce that magazine size from 6 down to at least 4 if  not 2 as this would then make people have to hit their shots not just blast away at random
