The ikelos shotgun is like kinda bad now. I get that there are more weapons that you can choose from now but people worked hard for that weapon. It should've either stayed how it was or at least be able to launch 6-8 shots out of the barrel before it ran out, but 3 shots whats that gonna do if you run up next to a target. I get they are trying to change the sandbox but really that hard it had to be nerfed. Make more shotguns have trench barrel which they are doing as showed in the vidoc for the annual pass. If people work hard for something they should be able to keep that an option at all times. What happened to not nerfing items and instead looking for alternatives. meleeing every 3 shots is also kinda funky if you want to maximize your dps but i feel like you could get more dps from just meleeing once with the 3 shots and unloading your ammo.
