No respectable year 1 player would refer to the matador as mapador. Before ttk shotguns had twice the range and 3 times the consistency, so shut the hell up already. Shotsguns are a depressed shell of their former selves. The majority of you "guardians" on here cry about any gun that kills you, that you dont enjoy using. Bungie is mostly to blame for the imbalance in the game, but you cry babies fuel it. Yall are gonna cry very soon at the next meta and the cycle will continue.
Edit: i should have mentioned that after shotguns got nerfed for the 4th or 5th time everyone said they were "in a great place". All the while sniper nerfs were more prevalent. Bungie than nerfed snipers (didnt touch shotguns at all) and all of a sudden shotguns are now OP. LMFAO the logic of this community is hysterical
Edit#2 i would say 90% of you have logical responses in regards to my post. Whether it be agreeing with me or against my opinion. The problem with the people who disagree yet have logical and intelligent responses to this, have no facts to back them up. A lot of you have mentioned that the ttk for primaries having dropped has in directly made shotguns op so they need a nerf for balance. I would agree with this if it were actually true. Fact is most of the primaries were nerfed a few months after ttk release, yet shotgun usage did not increase and than snipers were the meta for around a year. Right before roi we got our last weapon rebalance which actually buffed a few exotics reduced ar mags and nerfed snipers. Up untill that update went live snipers ruled destiny. We were than introduced to the clever dragon which has an optimal ttk of. 80 seconds which is one of the easier and faster ttk weapons weve had in a while (so technically primaries got a buff) . So back to my original statement only when snipers got nerfed did shotguns become over used, because snipers could no longer get shot multiple times in the face and pull off a crisp headshot, so they switched. Sooooo yeah unless you can bring facts, stop spewing ignorance. Like i said the majority of you have help bring imbalance to this game, cheers!
Edit#3 Metador is a perfectly fine name to refer to the matador.

I played since beta and i still think the range is too much. On high impact shotguns at least.

I killed a shotty rusher with my Vex last night. Rather proud of myself!

Felwinter's Lie anyone?

10 RepliesWhat game were you playing where "snipers ruled for a year"? Snipers have never "ruled" crucible.

Dude I don't know what all the fuss is about. I have a great roll matador and don't use it . I'll take my fusion these days any day . Shot package still makes me cringe :)

2 RepliesIf you've never played Battlefield or Black Ops 2, you have no right to complain about shotgun range, either.

2 RepliesDefinitely more consistent and more range but idk about 3x the range lol I mean felwinters sniper had some crazy range but it wasn't 3x the current range of shotguns

It's a shotgun in a video game. Also maybe stop trying to talk to other people like your "WAY" smarter then they are. It's a douchebag thing to do [spoiler]also shotguns are your most used secondary weapon[/spoiler]

Y1 Q: What's the best sniper in the game? A: Felwinter's Lie

I remember my friend saying it would be cool if they added legendary snipers without scopes. I told him one already exists. It's called a Felwinters lie.

"My experiences are more important than yours..." Stop invalidating someones experience or opinion just because you have had different experiences. Do you think Felwinter's Lie + shotpackage is something that even matters anymore? It doesn't, so stop bringing it up. One players experience does not invalidate and make moot another players experience. If someone thinks that the range on a shotgun is very far, then they can respectfully hold that opinion. ...because guess what. Is it Year 1? No. We have just started Year 3 and nothing should be compared to anything past that. Stop bringing up Year 1. Bring up what is to come.

Felwinter's Lie was the meta before the metador. I miss shot package... :)

4 RepliesI played in year 1, went flawless in year 1, I call it Mapador. It's because in year 1 everything was broken and it drowned out the fact that shotguns were broken as well.
