Peacekeeper is too Strong
Peacekeeper has been the most powerful weapon since season 1 for several reasons. 1. Its super easy to use, you can just wait to aim slowly and hit 80 to 110 per shot, or even the 165dmg lucky shot,...

There is nothing worse than a player that ask for nerfs!
Get Gud, or drop dead!
You cant blame the game that you lost.
You can only blame yourself!
I'm pretty good don't misunderstand, i win fights only because i have a PK and i felt awful, dirty... and i was waiting for someone to post something like that, and i really don't care, the purpose of this BR type of games is be competitive, but can't be if still exists weapons like Pk and the new charge rifle, if someone asks for a nerf it's because if you use that weapon, ability, whatever is broken...you have higher chance to win agaisnt who doesn't have it, and in a game like Apex where RNG is the king, the Developers need to put some balance to everything, if you don't want nerfs, it's because you like Op things and i don't blame you, they're are fun, and give you a false sensation of being good and once those things got nerfed you get hopeless and reminds you how bad you are.

The peacekeeper is far from over powered.
Some people are just good.
And some people just think they are good.
That pathfinder that blasted you with that peacekeeper just bested you.
Don't blame the weapon, blame the player.
Blame yourself!Sure one 154 dmg hit is pure skill, with a Pathfinder that can get close to you in a blink, and yeah the guy is pretty good that's for sure, but there's my point, with really good players in games like this, weapons like PK are super OP, because in higher ranks people don't miss a shot, and almost everyone have the same skill level, and the only thing that can put the balance to one side is the weapons and armor you use, in my case, purple shield and a r-99 against a Pathfinder with same shield and a peacekeeper, was a close range battle i destroy his shield and he was 44 hp and i was 154hp, that was a good situation for me, i tried to take out my wingman and finish the guy when he land the second shot.
if the other player can change this type of situation for his favor with one single shot, there's something wrong.
I forget to say that kind of things only happen on Season 3 with the pellets size increase, sure in last seasons PK wasn't that powerful, because was pretty hard to get those high damage shots and was a pretty good weapon, but now it's just ridiculous.

You got to learn how to play differently.
There are 2 meta.
The close-range skirmish high burst damage meta: Peacekeeper, R99, Wingman.
Then there is the second meta.
The mid-range sustained fire meta: R301, Flatline, Spitfire, Havoc.
You have to use both to win.
Sometimes its best to open up a Flatline at mid range, to rip their shields off then push close to kill them.
Skirmishing full health enemies at close range is dangerous!
If you meet a high burst damage weapon like the R99 or PK,it can be over in a seconds.
But these are close range weapons, so they excel at their intended ranges.
I suck with the PK and R99, so I stay away from close range until I break the enemy shields.
Then I push in for the kills.
If you have put a little sustained fire on the pathfinder initially, that pathfinder would have been dead on your push.
If that pathfinder pushed you, you should have ran, or abused local cover.And anyways!
You was skirmishing with the R99!
You missed your second burst!
Its your fault you died!
If your second R99 bust would have fully landed, you would have gotten the kill!
From you damage it looks, like you got the second shot off first, but missed half you clip!
Its your fault!
Also the R99 bust DPS is much higher than the Peacekeeper!
So... Its your fault!
