I feel like you have a very valid point, worth taking into account for sure.
I agree that the user makes a huge difference, and that small imbalances in weapons are meaningless passed a certain level of skill.
I mainly soloq and I can relate to the frustration it causes for the reasons you mentioned.
I, however, am convinced that the PK as it is belongs to the care package, because as a secondary weapon for example it does take away the possibility to fight back, when it does over 100 damage per shot.
I say secondary weapon and I mean a follow up weapon. It changes the timing of pushes in the game --say I damage an enemy with a level 3 shield for 91, then I push while switching to the pk -- at that point dealing 109 damage the gun is a one shot deal.
Sure, other guns would do the same, but the timing of it is higher, because instead of 91 damage, a player would need to do 120 to have a one shot deal with the mastiff, and 140 to hae a one shot deal with the Eva-8. This issue is exacerbated when a soloq random team with no comms meets a coordinated pre made.
Eva 8 wipes the floor with every other shotgun.
