The problem with SG in D2 are
-Range. They out range a lot of Fusion Rifles and Smgs
-They are the only guns without a delay before you can shoot while sprinting.
-You can shoot 5 rapid shots before two charges of a fusion rifle with a rapid frame 3 with full auto.
The fact is all the nerfs From D1 that put them in a good place sp Fusions could have a spot were reverted because they were move to the heavy slot. Now that they are moved back to special ammo they need to be fix to match that. More so cause now we get free ammo.
And For and fairness sake give them the same delay before you can shoot while sprinting as every other gun class in the game. The fact that you can run shotgun in virtually not even stop is BS.

Sidearms, Traces, Fusions, and Snipers need buffed. Sidearms especially.
