AR’s 600 speed are such a dominant meta now that almost everybody is using them. They are so forgiving that they still easily melt players with body shots. When you are low on health there is no escape from auto rifle spray. In my opinion they should reduce body shot damage a lot. Fast kills by shooting head shots is fine.

But there a meta, not a consistent situation unlike the others. Shotguns, jotunn, or bastion are problems for people because of how they work on a base level of how they work not because of a temporary meta.
