Shot guns need a buff

The 6.5% or more damage reduction to hardlight was crazy it's useless now it was my fav gun

Of course it was needed. Too many people were using them and we all know when too many people. Are using something it's bad. Now that auto rifles were nerfed, the variety I'm the crucible is at its very highest and nothing could be bet....oh wait everyone uses pulses now...

I would agree, the Auto Rifles are too underwhelming mostly due to most of them being treated as short range SMGs than the Assault Rifle we would rather them portray. The reason I feel as though they're incapable of holding their own as a weapon type is because of all the other weapon types that simply perform their job better than they could hope to after Patch 1.1.1. The heftiest problem being that not only Shotgunners will rule an SMG [b]11/10[/b] times in their home turf (close proximity firefights,) but Hand Cannons were built specifically to be close-quarters with [b]range[/b] upgrades; [i]they're[/i] the "Close-up Kings," and Auto Rifles will never compare to them now from afar or up close. Also yes, I meant 11/10, just to be sure. When one type of people is better at doing a job than another, employers will resort to the ones better at doing the job tasked to them. So when you give us weapon types that simply perform their job better from up close or from afar, you reduce the inferior model to an underused if not completely abandoned state. [i]Nobody said they wanted to never see Auto Rifles used again, but these changes reflect just this sort of attitude towards the archetype.[/i] My two cents, good luck OP.
