The EVA is like the Prowler

So this headline might seem a little misleading but let me explain...

The EVA shotgun, is IMO the best in its class and for me what gives it that title is its consistency and also how it is a different variation of shotgun in this game. The reason I say it is like the Prowler is because in the SMG category, the Prowler is in a world of it's own and offers a completely different dynamic than any other SMG.

I know shotguns like the PK and Mastiff can land heavy shots and someone who really masters those weapons will absolutely wreck you from close range but in terms of consistency the EVA is so strong. Even with a Lvl 1 bolt I'm still confident pushing in with this weapon.

I hope they don't touch the EVA and leave it as it is for now because it's in a great place.

If you haven't been using it, give it a try. It's such a good weapon to use!

@rockyboy1998 Are you saying because the Prowler has burst? Idk I'd like to see how on ground Prowler fairs against the other top SMGs.

@rockyboy1998 They will touch it. Judging by lots of comments where ppl are liking the eva... it’s inevitable... heck they might even carepackage it...

@rockyboy1998 It has been a good gun for a long time. Especially if you are playing with high ping. I struggle to convince myself to use it tho cause I always find a volt with a decent mag.

In my experience EVA has a tendency to have hit registration issues.

Speaking of the Prowler...
...this game has been a lot more boring ever since that gun has been in the Care Package pool. And the version in the pool is garbage.
That gun needs to be put back on the ground.
Back to the EVA, this is the only season in which it has become my preferred shotgun. Especially since with all the complaining that the guns killed people, not the shooter's tactics and skill, the rest of the shotguns are super nerfed.

@Vdstrk I’ve had this as well towards the end of S8 and beginning of S9...

Haven’t noticed it lately

@Koochi-Q

it happened to me yesterday, 2 shots registered out of 5 against a pathfinder... but it happens more than that, not in that measure... just my experience.
I also believe that using a shotgun against lifelines has the highest probability of no reg... just my experience, again.

@Vdstrk I haven’t been playing much (with eva) lately so I can’t say if it’s still present for me but I’ve had funny no hit-regs and ya, lots of times it’s on LL XD

If you can land it, you can PUMP it really HARD multiple times than other shotgun. 3 click and you're done.
Big question, can you land it ?

@asukojo This sounds like a setup...

I shall not be tricked into making an easy joke like that sir! No sir-e! No peperoni pizza and a good sausage for the lonely housewife coming from me.
