Assault's SS26 Incendiary Shotgun needs a buff

I started using the SS26 yesterday to complete challenges and try out a new gadget. The SS26 is bad. It has no place in BF6 or spot where it works well.

The shotgun itself does so little damage its not worth using as a gun. 

The fire/area denial is so minimal and lasts such a short time that it cant be used as utility. 

The range is very short, the spread is huge, the tick damage is also very underwhelming. 

Im not quite sure the purpose of the gadget is but what I would suggest is making it a 1 shot within 5m so it has a possible 1 shot capability without being OP. Increase the tick damage very slightly, increase the range so you can atleats get hit markers out to 15-20m even if its still like a 6 shot kill. And have the fire/area denial last 2-3 seconds longer. Make it more visible so enemies are aware theres a burning effect that could hurt them. And in turn a hard counter could be the adrenaline injector and a medic bag. 

TLDR: the assault shotgun incendiary gadget needs some love. It doesn't quite feel like it has a home in BF6 yet
