Vault Peacekeeper
This should be the first and only gun removed from the game. No skill insta kill trash. I don't understand why every fps game has this stupid obsession with making the easiest guns the strongest. I...
You're right. Instead of arguing that the pellet count is too high you made it sound like you were complaining about how devastating a shotgun is at close range. You mentioned spread and damage. Both go hand in hand. What matters is the pellet count. Reducing it is a good way of balancing a shotgun's damage without completely destroying it. Mess with range and it loses its role. You could mess with the damage too, reduce how much each pellet does so a maximum splash doesn't hit as hard as it used to. I was half awake when i answered you so I might have been mistaken. It just sounded like you were complaining about a shotgun being such a threat in close quarters. I've actually seen that argument across multiple games in the past.
When you are 1 shotted with level 3 gear... it's OP
Exactly this, twice now I've been downed in 1 shot from the Peacekeeper at range (around 10 in game metres) whilst wearing full purple armour, full health and shields. A weapon this strong needs either a damage and range nerf (possibly less ammo held too) or needs to be a gold special weapon as the Mastiff is.
Not sure if anyone noticed but the mastiff doesn't even have the range that the peace keeper has lol.. Did some soft testing and honestly when you don't dump your kitted shotgun for a yellow shotgun clearly its broken. that's all the proof you need that the peacekeeper is doing way to much at way to far of a distance. and lets be honest. A shotgun IRL is deadly and I do believe it should do the damage it does.. just need to make the pellets spread more over distance until you get a choke on it. . therefore less pellets hitting = less overall damage the further away you are.
you should not be able to run in a building pick up a gun with 10 shots and kill a whole squad its flat out ruining this game.
and the wingman? I mean its a hand sniper. its super accurate with minimal drop off.. head shots at 200+ meters is a joke stop it.
