Dust Rock Blues needs to be nerfed

The Dust Rock Blues is on of the only viable pvp weapons in the game essentially, next to the luna and not forgotten. No other gun in the game can out damage the Dust Rock in close range, yes I know it is a shotgun but come on it's just flat out ridiculous to have it be this over powered.

  • Long range shotguns have been a problem since literally day one of destiny. Its been what, 6 years of shotguns being able to oneshot from too far. I don't want anything to do with a game that caters to bad players

    If you can’t find a way to counter it maybe use it instead of asking for a nerf. It’s ridiculous how often people cry for nerfs and seem surprised when they start to nerf everything. It ruins the game and waters it down. Just look at the 6k plus upvotes asking to stop the upcoming nerfs. And yet I get to read this drivel. Go to the forges and grind a better rolled Blast Furnace and you’ll take down any shotgun ape long before they’re in range to use it.

    • I love Dust Rock Blues! Shotgunners who crutch DRB are super easy to bait into my Chaperone! They feel so confident in their easy weapon that they don't even expect anyone to be able to out range them! Love it. Best addition to the game, just because it makes the bad players even easier to bait and kill. In all seriousness, fighting DRB, and to a lesser extent Retold Tale/any other long range shotgun, is not very difficult. Before each match, inspect every player. Check to see how many shotguns to expect. Use radar in match, to tell when a shotgunner is around a corner. Don't rush the corner, and stay a few meters a way from it. Bait them to rush you, while you are far away. You can guaranteed kill them before they get you if you use an erentil or Chaperone. Expect a slide around the corner, so prepare to aim low. Stay backpedaling as they rush you. If you are confident in your aim, you can even jump up and backwards. Practicing and watching videos for technique are the best way to be able to fight shotguns. When fighting Chaperone, don't. Unless you have an erentil and you are good with it, the range of Chaperone will surprise you, and baiting them will fail. Erentil is really the only thing that can beat a Chaperone at range. Or, you can use your own chaperone and be better than them at aiming and judging when you are in the optimal kill range. Use that to help you fight shotguns. They do need a range nerf universally, but they can be fought as is.

          • The range is too much, but Jotunn and Telesto don't sweat Dust Rock. I mean, I'm terrible in pvp... but even I don't let a shotgunner get that close very often. The void Titan is what bugs me. Stupid subclass can cross the entire map and kill me in it's super with me shooting it the entire time... oh, but stabby hunter is op?

                  • Nope. Shotguns have already been nerfed to their former shell and worse. The reason why these shotguns excel still after all these nerfs is because of the map size. These map sizes promote CQC. Not to mention that we’re playing 6v6 in 4v4 maps.

                    • It's pretty inconsistent. It's supposed to dominate close range. I guess snipers shouldn't be able to kill from far away? 🤔 that's the logic you are presenting here.

Spread Shottie plebs!!! * Also Erentil Fr4 sh!ts on DRB especially if it has the broken perk back up plan on it. Just wait until everyone’s Luna gets Nerfed. Erentil will definitely replace it. Just wait. It’s coming.
