Peacekeeper too strong vs bigger characters
Peacekeeper is too strong vs the bigger characters. It needs reduced spread and damage because it just 1/2 shots pathfinder, caustic and gibraltar really easily.

I'd honestly say the spread needs to be larger. I've always kind of see the peacekeeper as a normal pump shotty, which usually has a pretty wide spread, not as big as a sawed off, but still pretty wide. As of right now though I've really not heard it should be reduced.
From what it sounds like to me is it goes into more of a problem with the hitboxes in the game then anything, which quite a few people have made mention of. Since playing any of the bigger characters puts you at a rather decent disadvantage since you're so much easier to hit.
My idea for adjusting the peacekeeper is to one, reduce its spawn rate to that of energy weapons, and make it use energy ammo at about 60 rounds per mag, and 10 rounds being used per shot. Feels like that would make the gun a lot easier to deal with, since your ammo supply would be reduced tremendously, and it's appearance on the field would match that of other Energy types.
Sometimes you just have to make that choice, is it a smart play to pick up that Havok/Devotion? Are you going to have the ammo for it to be useful? Are you going to find the attachments you need to make it useful? Just add that same thought process to the Peacekeeper, and boom, guarantee we see it at least 25% less in fights if not more.
