I keep seeing people begging to buff PVE weapons. I don't know what they're talking about. I sometimes double and even triple shotguns.

Yeah double Slug Shotty builds work because swapping with Dexterity mods circumvent rate of fire, and the Reconstruction perk removes the need to reload. It's cool, but it doesn't mean that the way Shottys are balanced on an individual basis isn't very weak at the moment

2 shotgun builds work because it side steps use mechanics. 1 shotgun builds struggle because use mechanics are too harsh • Rate of Fire to Damage ratio is bad • Reload could be quicker

I use a shotgun, trace rifle and the Heir Apparent in my Solar build and it works just fine for me.

Happy for you, but it should also be noted I specifically referenced endgame content as the need for the buff. Solar builds like that are fun for low end content, but Champion mods prevent them from being endgame viable. What I'd like for shotguns is to see them become boss burners so I could stun champs and clean them up with a shotty or have an alternative boss DPS tool other than my heavy. Say I'm in a GM and stun an unstop with a scout, in this sandbox it'd be goofy of me to try finishing them with a shotgun because they'd recover and stomp well before I could
