PEACEKEEPER HAS 2X BRUISER IN ARENA???

Remove the x2 bruiser from shotguns it's so silly that it's even a thing.

I was a gibby, I got the care package and it gave me a peacekeeper, so I was ready to make a bubble play, and as the enemies push, I notice that I have a x2 bruiser so I can't even ads with it because I'm not going to hit anyone at close range like that.

Not only that, but you can't remove the sights in arena either so I had to fight without ads on pk as a gibby in a bubble.

Please remove sights that don't work with certain weapons.

    @xkaizou You are able to change the sights on any gun that you buy in Arena, so that you can upgrade a weapon but keep the basic sights if you wish. Care package weapons cannot be changed, because they are Care Package weapons.

    @xkaizouIt is truly ridiculous, it is obvious that whoever decides what sights get equipped onto what guns doesn’t even play the game... I remember during a LTM we had pre equipped tier guns from care packages and if im not mistaken everyone complained about the 1-2x on the mastiff so they ended up removing the sight lol and just making the blue tier a blue bolt with iron sights like it should of been in the first place

    @TheGhostOfKiev That is the whole point of this discussion, like I said in my first post I got a PeaceKeeper from a care package with a X2 Bruiser. Which is very ineffective.

    I know you can change sights from rounds, but you can't from package weapons.

    @xkaizou if your concern is package weapons ask for a change on package sights. not to remove a sight from a gun. better specify your topic more. if you want the correct responses and analyzing.

    If anyone thorougly reads my post, they'll understand that I'm talking about care package weapons due to the scenario I mentioned, if some people only read the title and not the details then make a response then of course you'll think I'm talking about the optic in general. @darkdragon1142

    His post and wording is fine and perfectly clear. I found it half a year later googling the same problem that still isn't fixed.

    It's obvious he's talking about the care package as the starting Peacekeeper doesn't ever have a 2x "bruiser" on it by default, as it shouldn't. It's so annoying going to grab a better, "leet" shotgun from the care package, and it has this sight on it making it useless, especially for the PK that you have to ADS to "choke" it. I've gotten killed trying to pick my "lesser" shotgun back up in lieu of care package "upgrade".

    Who the hell made this design mistake that still isn't fixed?

    Hey @Sparkie075,

    This thread is a bit older, but do note that care package weapons (aside from the Kraber) have had the option to remove or swap optics since Season 8, which you can find in the patch notes here. 

    • Locked Weapon Optic Swapping - For guns with fully locked attachment slots, like fully-kitted gold weapons and most crate weapons, you can now remove the optic and replace it with a different sight.  This does not apply to the Kraber sniper rifle.

    As others have mentioned, in Arenas you do have the option of which optics you'd like to use as well. Thanks for the feedback.
