Wingman damage
Nerf the damage on the wingman it does way to much for how fast it can fire.

Who has a 4 round wingman late game?
They nerfed the spitfires damage but not the wingman? Revolver or not it shouldn't do 45 damage.
I agree. The damage on the Wing man is a lot but the skill involved helps even that out a bit. Even though on PC its pretty damn easy to hit consistent shots. The mag size and ammo wasn't the issue for the wing man (IMO). Yes, you start with (4) shots but heavy extended mags are so common that it makes it a non issue. I believe they needed to work on the fire rate. It pumps out shots so quickly for the amount of damage it does. Not to mention its range for a pistol is insane and the hip fire most of the time isn't that bad.
They need to revert back to the original ammo size and slow the fire rate and the weapon would be fine. Again this is just my opinion.

Why. The problem is you guys are treating it like a side arm. There are no penalties or bonuses for using one gun over the other. If the model for the gun was a dmr or lever action rifle no one would complain.
The issue with the people complaining about it want it to an treated like pistols in every other game they've played. But those games give the player a movement bonus for running with a pistol out. You don't get a movement buff in apex unless you're rocking fists.
You're getting hung up on the appearance and not the gun. The long bow has a bigger clip does more damage and shoots just as fast. But no one bats an eye.
You also only get 3 attachments two of which are a sight and a mag where the long bow gets 5 to drastically improve its accuracy.
Stop worrying what the gun LOOKS like and start playing around how the gun works. Treat it like a dmr.
Swompdonkey - I understand where you are coming from about the DMR and wingman comparison. I'm not hung up on what the gun looks like but how it plays. You can make your argument now because of the recent patch due to them increasing the fire rate on the Longbow. Still the wingman is preferred because its easier to hip fire, great long distance and still a quicker fire rate.
- Excuse you? Longbow fire just as fast as the wingman? The wingman nearly doubles the ROF over the longbow and does 10 less damage. I believe the longbow does 55 damage a shot correct?
