- I wonder when people will demand to nerf the skill level of better than them players - because they can't beat them. Why to learn and adopt to game when you can only ask for another unnececery nerf. Nerf this, nerf that, nerf everything!
you can do 106 dmg with a trippletake in close range also...
so what is the point?
it is a shotgun and therefor HAS TO BE STRONG in close combat.
within Apex Legends, there a plenty of really strong weapons.
Charged up Sentinel headshot through Rampart cover deals 216 damage.
yet noone useses it. as well as the legend.
so there will always be situations in which you will face off something you will find imbalanced in this very situation.
one last thing:
if you had grabbed the mastiff, and the enemy had gotten the RE45, you wouldnt have posted this here. i am sure. 1000000%
- @Ff3NiXx I've had luck and bad luck with Mastiff, depending on what Legend I picked it on. I think you're exaggerating. All weapons are situational, as well as the circumstances in which you ace or fail with or against a specific weapon. If you have 0 armor and you get 1 headshot by mastiff, then it's kinda your fault. Prepare better. I've also won duels with Eva and Mozambique vs Mastiff players, so I don't think the problem is exactly how you describe it.
- @Sir_Named Mastiff is pretty * right now but it was broken before its nerf. Like, very broken
- @Ff3NiXx mastiff is a good gun, if they remove mastiff then they should add peacekeeper. i am solo queuing and a whole squad comes up on my face with octane stim i have no chance of running but to fight and shotgun gives me some chance of staying alive against 1 v 3 . clearly it's your fault for pushing people close range without thinking about consequences..
I have to disagree with you, the mastiff was good were it was before the nerf, maybe a slower firing rate but the damage was well deserved.
At the range of 10 meters or less you should be getting 100 damage from a shot gun, because that's its purpose, come to close, get 2 pumped.
But for real my big issue is, it taking 2 shots to finish someone for a shield swap, it's alot more inconvenient now.
On a low profile character I presume, I'll stand by my point, a shot gun is meant for burst damage a close range and should consistently do high damage at close range, that's the whole point.
An SMG or any other weapon for that matter should loose at close range. It's not even that far that you have to be to make the mastiff useless, people where complaining about the pk before the mastiff swap for the same reasons. You get 2 tapped by a shot gun, you didn't keep your distance.
- @Apyhs that doesn't make sense, the beak is a low tear weapon, it is purposely suppose to be "bad" , and the Eva-8 is a automatic shot gun, that shouldn't be more powerful then a semi automatic. Also with the double tap it could hit easy 150s in the spam of a mastiff shot.
It's all a question of preference at that point. Blaming a gun for you charging in all willy nilly and getting 2 tapped isn't the guns fault. It's you, as a player, miss judging the situation with the tools you have.
The pk or the mastiff should always have the option to 2 tap someone, because it's a shot gun, not an automatic weapon that excels at mid range.
