Vault the Peacekeeper

😃

Disagree

Hey, @FattigDK 

What do you think of the Peacekeeepr after the latest changes from the update, notice any difference?

Patch notes: https://answers.ea.com/t5/News-Game-Updates/3-1-Patch-notes/m-p/8387933#M52

Changes to Projectile Collision: We’ve increased the projectile width on the some weapons so they are easier to hit with. We made this change to the TripleTake in Season 2 and the following will be updated for this patch:

• Shotguns: All shotguns will have projectiles with a small amount of width.
• L-STAR
• Snipers: The Longbow DMR, Kraber, and G7 Scout.

The PK is broken .  Increasing width on bullet projectile was the worst thing you could have done to this game.  Please roll back this update to how it was prior.  Watch twitch for 20 minutes you'll see.  Every gun is useless next to the r99 PK combo.  Takes a lot of the fun and variety out of the game.  

I want apex to grow and not die please listen to your audience   

Peacekeeper keeps getting buffed for no reason and it makes it a stronger weapon on console to be honest. Even people who aren't skilled at the gameplay by manage to land 1-2 PK shots even against a skillful player will most likely end up killing them. PK is hitting harder than ever now because Respawn gave it two buffs in a row. 

If anything, I am fine with the buffs towards Evo 8/Moz/Mastiff. 

But lets be real here, the Peacekeeper is the best Shotgun in the game and it's a normal loot pool weapon. The Mastiff should be the best. Not the PK. If you Mastiff vs a PK, chances are the PK person will win the fight.

PK needs nerfs not buffs or revert the changes you guys keep giving it. It had a weakness of being inconsistent. That why I don't use the Peacekeeper because I hit people for low damage and hardly get those big numbers. The change however, makes it more consistent and it will hit hard no matter what basically. 

I also seen someone get 3500-4000+ damage with Peacekeeper/R-99 and Peacekeeper/P2020 loadouts. The damage from those matches were due to the PK than their other weapons. This is in Duos.  

Yep, I've no idea what they were thinking when they buffed the shotguns.

Peacekeepers everywhere.

@Leo_the_Lion25If we did nerf the Peacekeeper though, would anyone use a shotgun? Mastiff maybe, but the eva8 and mozambique are still d teir. Yeah, their usable, but only with their hop ups and even then peacekeeper would still be better. I agree about nerfing it, maybe remove the hop up for the peacekeeper. Or add damage falloff at 50 meters, or heighten the spread on it, so we can't snipe with it.

@EA_BlueberryI agree with other opinions here, the PeaceKeeper weakness was the inconsistency of the damage, BUT you can't balance a weapon like that, that's why the PK needed that pellet size buff

BUT BUT....you already give that buff in the beginning of the season 3 and even before that double buff Peacekeeper was always the strongest shotgun of all, now that you give it full consistency, and now that is the strongest weapon of all...i hope you can see more clearly that the PK needed a BIG NERF since the beginning of the game.

1.-154 to 165 top damage is too much for a Battle Royale with 210hp top health depending on the character.

2.-Two shots for get a kill with a 6 rounds magazine is too much thats low risk high reward.

3.-Choke to give it sniper capabilities is too much

4.-Its a Common weapon, and if you can see ranked stats, diamond and predator lobbys are full of Peacekeepers

5. Two buffs in a row for the PK was too much.

Nerfs Needed:

1. Damage Nerf by 2 on every projectile on body and leg shot (from 10 to 8 and from 8 to 6 respectively) and reduce head shot damage from 15 to 12 on every projectile.

2. REDUCE magazine from 6 to 4

2. Increase bullet dispersion to 60% on hipfire and 40%on ads and keep the pellet size increase buffs

3. Change the choke capabilities for the peacekeeper and only give it bullet dispersion reduction like 10% or 15% like any other game in the world.

4. Reduce movement speed while ads to 70% that will remove the hide and fire capabilities (this is one of the strongest aspects of the PK.

5. Remove shotgun bolt from PK the Base rate of fire of the PK is insane already.

That looks like a Big Nerf but the PK is The Strongest Weapon right now, and this is a Battle Royale, where you only have one life every match and one shot or two shots to died is just not good.

The PK is the Highest Reward with the Lowest Risk weapon all this nerf will keep it strong but will increase the risk of using it.

nerf pk and eva ! it two shot everybody without a good aim ! all rifle close range are useless now and  it's better than mastiff ....
