Nobody uses them anymore the only primaries people use anymore are 1. TLW and 2. UR and that isn't even a primary and 3. MIDA. It's just pathetic how shit primary weapons really are. They are practically useless. Ask the forums what to do about a shotgunner coming straight for you. Everyone just says use a fusion literally primaries have such a long time to kill that you will either trade or die from that little bitch shotgunner. Snipers literally every door I go around has one camping it, and this isn't a problem??? Seriously wtf. This IB you'd be lying if you said you didn't seen at least 5 shotgun rushers per game. I really wish we could go back to HOW days when primaries actually did something.
Update? Don't know how this works
I didn't mean to seem like a rant but primaries kill times are to slow compared to God roll shotguns and snipers with no flinch, and how people tell me to use 1 out of maybe 30 weapons they list, but every weapon and arch type should be good. Like grim citizen that arch type needs some work done to it. If your precise enough to land all head shots at mid to long range the shotty rusher will kill you. Oh and I'm on Xbox so telling me to use The Jade Rabbit isn't possible lmao.

14 AntwortenTuonela 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.
