Your attitude and inability to formulate an opinion on the matter at hand is pathetic.

I'm pretty sure my opinion is pretty clear; you are ignorant and your butt hurt on a balanced alternative to shotguns is extremely annoying. My attitude is meaningless when it comes to the facts I've presented.

I don't need to do anything. The fact that a post of this nature can be that "annoying" to you shows your lack of control over yourself and your emotions. I don't think it's pathetic, but you might want to engage in some introspection yourself before slinging insults.

The fact that a balanced weapon affects you to such a great degree demonstrates who you are as an individual and your lack of ability. You want this weapon burned at the stake because it is the biggest obstacle standing in your way of your ideal shotgun-aping play style. The range isn't the major problem, people unwilling to adapt who can't utilize cover and whose primary objective is to bum rush the opposition are the problem. You're creating a fake issue so that your 5+ year long shotgun meta can continue. And that is pathetic and embarrassing. I'm sure your argument hinges on to some degree the amount of people complaining about erentil; in reality, that statistic probably shows the overwhelming amount of shotgun users in the game. I don't care about your personal inability to counter fusions; I care about that bleeding over into this and you creating a fake issue that numerous others have tried to promote. It's propaganda, and it's pathetic.

I don't want this weapon to "burn at the stake". I haven't said anything of the sort. I think this is a subject you're clearly very passionate about, but you obviously haven't cared to read other people's posts or my responses to them. You are angry and rude and you have made clear how you feel about shotguns vs fusions. I wasn't trying to make it about that and was instead only talking about, back up plan, projection fuse, and firmly planted tipping the scales a bit... But feel how ever you like. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. You noticed that Bastion don't shoot as far tho, right? Lol

Angry, no. Rude, absolutely. I don't really feel the need to fake pleasantries when it comes to propaganda, and I think that's totally ok. This will be the one and only time I agree with you; backup plan should not be on any legendary fusion rifle. It's an exotic perk and should remain that way. Projection fuse? That's like saying accurized rounds and full choke shouldn't be available on a shotgun. Firmly planted? Again, if you can't augment your play style to counter a perk like that that says more about you than it does the state of the sandbox. Also, shotguns have opening shot and slideshot that alter the range they otherwise should be capable of killing at. In direct contrast, shotgun in air accuracy shames every other weapon type, there's virtually no difference from ground to air once you're within kill range. I have no idea what Bastion's kill range is, I haven't yet felt like wasting my time to acquire it.

You're entitled to your thoughts and opinions. I don't have to entertain you being rude or dismissive for any reason. I'm not repeating false claims to try to have them accepted or passed as truth. I began a discussion that is reoccurring because sometimes you have to get into the fray and not just look at the metrics to tell something is off.

You think something is off because erentil is the greatest contender against shotguns that we have ever seen as a community 😂 I wonder what the statistics would look like, accumulate every person spewing propaganda against erentil and see what weapon they main. What do you main? I have a guess lol.

Currently I have been using Revoker/ Devil's ruin since it came out. My favorite heavy is Gold tusk. Prior to that I used Thorn and Good Bone Structure. I enjoy fast bows with 110 hand cannons. Beloved. Omniscient eye. Mountain Top. And chaperone is likely my favorite, though I have not touched in it months, because I prefer the in air accuracy of legendary slugs
