Should the Wingman be Nerfed?
The Wingman should be nerfed a little bit, EVERYONE uses it and its stronger than most shotguns!
- I think other guns should be buffed to compete not nerfing it

The wingman outperforms everything period. It needs nerfed and the designers know it. Will they nerf the two low skill weapons? Or will they hope to attract as many fortnite sheep as possible....

And why pistol can't by powerful gun, this game is about future fights, not about real world...Uhm. No just no. Wingman is OP and needs nerfed in anyway acceptable to match other guns that should be buffed.
how about this at a minimum...no extended magazine? I mean it’s a revolver so you can’t extend a magazine on a revolver without diminishing round size.

I don't see a problem with the wingman. With the skullpiercer it will reward having a VERY accurate aim, but headshotting in this game where projectiles has travel time is far easier said than done. Other guns quite out dps the wingman. P99 being a prime example of that, or the prowler with select fire mod. I use the wingman all the time, but not due to it's "superior damage" cause it's quite frankly NOT superior. It's due to the fact I don't need to use a lot of inventory space on bullets, leaving plenty of room for arc star nades and energy batteries.
All guns can compete against each others, wingman users are not default winners in a fight, PERIOD. Tactical approach, using environment to your advantage, having great awareness of whats around you, being able to use your ears just as well as your eyes and act accordingly, these are things that far outweighs your gun selection in terms of becoming the champion of a match.
If you got messed up by a wingman user, or ANY gun user, than it just means you need to improve your aim and/or all the above. YOU need to improve your accuracy and learn to play smarter.
The wingman is fine.
That * really needs to be nerfed, it just ruined all weapon mechanics and destroys the meaning of all machine guns, shotguns and sniper rifles.
It has no recoil, 100% accuracy, and its powerful weapon even in the hands of a mediocre player (like me).
A strong player with this "pistol" will kill anyone, no matter - with a carbine, sniper, shotgun, near or at a distance.
Also wingman ISNT needed to use scope - just see this video /watch?v=kjnkcuJqFQA.
I think the best way to handle the gun is to remove the mag, and make it 35dmg on shot and then whit the skull u do 95dmg. Yea it will still dominate the pubs games but in pro scene we will have really interesting gun fights And then it will become more skill base gun, whit high reward high risk, not like now u have 12 shot's u can miss whit 9 of then and still able to kill someone.
Sorry for the English- Reduce dmg to 35 body, 75 head (100 with skullpiercer)
- Make his actual recoil the same as his visual recoil.
- Introduce bullet falloff, it's a pistol ffs.
Currently it looks like the gun has recoil but if you spam it then it really doesn't.

Wow the quality of gamers with integrity is low.
If streamers purposely bored of dominating with it and call it OP then maybe your mediocre low skill player self can not post nonsense. Also fortnite newbs prefer peacekeeper since they are a non ADSing crowd.
punish for good aiming xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD that's funny you don't even need to iam with that just saying so stupid
@PuRPl3_4k1 wrote:nerfed ? i disagree just get better at aiming why woude you punish others for being good at aiming ?.
sry if my english is a bit broken still getting better at it 🙂
Perfect example of a bad player boosted ego off a newb weapon....people good with the weapon think it needs nerfed.
