Respawn still bullies the Wingman!
Respawn has now proven several times, that they obviously would like to see their own creation (the Wingman) dead and forgotten. This gun has been nerfed so many times, that it is currently only a...

Come on: You know what I'm trying to say with my post...:
The Wingman was drastically nerfed since the beginning of Apex Legends.
There have been some re-buffs, yes, but with the mag-decision, the reduced number of bullets + the reduced damage per hit, the Wingman now is nothing compared to its original shape. Plus they increased the hipfire-spread and obviously reduced its drop rate.
All those nerfs tell me, that the weapon was still too strong for them. Almost at the same time with the last nerf, they implemented the way too overpowered Akimbos into the game.
Mastering the Wingman needs practise and skill...using the Mosambique-Akimbos is just braindead gun-spamming since they got a immense hipfire-spread and are quite forgiving if you don´t land some shots.
So they tried to bring more realism to the game by removing the mags from the Wingman? Then please: No more Mosambiques who fire three pellets of shotgun shells, no more sniper-ammo in the Wingman etc.
The only reason why they removed the mags from the Wingman was to force the playerbase to switch to other weapons.
Please do not take my pervious post to serious. It was a bit tongue in cheek and I apologize for that.
I know what you meant.
I know you love the Wingman.
Keep fighting for it.
I don't like the Akimbo 20-20s or Mozzies, I do not like the Wingman either but they all have nich spots in the game.
Maybe tone down the Akimbo weapons a bit and buff the Wingman a bit is what i think.
