Re: Mastiff

@E9ine_ACFor me, I have always had a hard time shooting shotguns unless they are literally in front of me. It seems pretty balanced to me. High-risk high reward, and that's if you're close to the opponent

3 Matches today im beamed for 70/120 from 20-30 meters away. Some people sure know how to use this gun a lot better then others i suppose at long range? While i shoot at that range aimed at their chest and hit for 13. But you mean to tell me these people from same range can hit me for 70/120??? Delete the gun or the unbalanced game. 

Moved this over to the Weapons & Loot Feedback board.

Kinda same stuff yesterday, tho for whatever reason i have terrible game both in Kovaak, in Quake Champions(its great game to play for overall improvement in your game), and in Apex.

Needed lik 3-4 hours to get used to(i`m playing it part times now :D) i still died exclusively to Mastiff in line 80% of the cases.

I mean i`m strafing super fast(not too fast to not move at all), i`m jumping, but the gun have insane amount of ammo, the reload is completely broken, its not a full reload, it also doesn`t punish you for missing a shot, cause of the fast fire rate.

This weapon has zero downfall.

People are using from the roofs to sniper you, when you are down in like 20-30-40 and even 50 meters range.

And at close range is just insane.

I was watching old stream of dizzy and in non-ranked games, aka average players were missing so so many PK shots, its nothing compare to now. Mastiff is easier to use. And PK was definitely broken too back in the day.

Again the damage should be way lower, reloading should be a full reload, and the bullets should be 6, but rather 4-5.

But they won`t do it for sure. Its the casual weapon that lower the skill ceiling, its what they want. It didn`t work out, because so many people cried out when they try to lower the skill ceil with lowering the TTK back in S6, but all of the Pros started to crying and they bring it back to semi-normal, but still left the buffed gun, which still lower the gap.

@FaIIenAngeI777The prowler was put into the care package for the exact same reason the mastiff is being complained about. Massive burst damage, and if you werent running it you lost every close range fight against it

the worst thing about it is definitely the Damage done on far Range

I often see (hear) people shoot me in the back even if I just used my Octance stim and am already like 80m away from them

I would not even try to Damage that running Octane with a MASTIFF

I hate that gun . . .

I prefer 301 Aiming and Tripletake or Spitfire (or Flatline)

also the R99 isn't my fav.

greetz  ZaiT (lamer hater)

edit: people better use some Aimtraining Software or practice more in Apex

instead of using that ugly Mastiff !

edit2: whoever disagrees with anything I said is a 12 year old noob to me btw.

close distance fights when more than 8 teams are alive simply aren't the smartest thing to do when u play for Ring and want to win the Game

which is the most important thing to me 😉

not a Fight addict (got 1600+h and only 10,4k kills)

but am very satisfied with all my Statistics ; )

smartplay is key !

and people who push solo into another team or don't listen to voicelines like "There is a 2nd Squad coming" need more gamesense

it's just not smart to be between 2 teams and not run to a safe spot or to be on lowground

ok... that's enough tips for everyone I guess 😛
