Tuonela SR4, Cocytus SR4, arminius-D, zerenaea-D, Monte Carlo, Zhalo Supercell, Hawkmoon, Eyasluna, Grasp of Malok, a well rolled hung jury SR4, the first curse, PDX-45, Hawksaw, doctrine of passing, soulstealer's claw, Lord High Fixer, Haakon's Hatchet, Colavance's Duty, Lethe Noblesse, Hand of Judgement (when explosive rounds isn't the middle perk....), the last extremity, plus some of the good blues that do exist. I have seen ALL OF these weapons in the crucible, and used the ones I had/have. Primaries are REALLY good right now. You're complaining about how to take out a rushing shotgunner, so here's an idea. Pick a weapon type you really like. For me, it's basically anything. I love scouts and hand cannons, but I've been using scouts a lot lately. Next, pick up any hakke sidearm. So... JabberHakke, the new monarchy one, havoc pigeon, or the iron wreath. Pick the rate of fire (indicated by the rounds per mag. I prefer fast firing, and that's indicated by the higher mag size). Now, stay out of crowded hallways, or places with too many entry points and own the map. I use MIDA because I enjoy using it, but tuonela is BADASS, and cocytus is awesome on long range maps. You never have to camp, and you can take down people at LITERALLY all ranges. Snipers can't handle it because you're putting so much pressure on their perch that they can't really get a good shot, and shotgun babies can't get close enough all the time. You can talk all the shit you want, but ANY nerfs right now will upset the balance. You're right, primaries are underused, but if you have real gun skill, you can do a lot with them.
