I have a legitimate concern about shotguns. After all of the range nerfs, really the only way to kill someone is to barrel stuff them or just get lucky. Its sort of ridiculous. I personally use shotguns IRL. I occasionally shoot skeet. And I know that shotguns now should be buffed with range. Lethal range should be much further. Im sure someone is going to complain that I posted this, but it is a legit concern. Now I understand we dont need another outbreak of shotguns like felwinters lie. Even just a little more range would do. Like enough to where we shouldnt have to barrel stuff almost every person.

Unrealistic is right. They are the only weapon in the game that's like this and people still complain about it. Everything else operates as it would in real life so I don't really get why they are singled out in a game that's built around gunplay.

1 답변I think the chaperone should be the standard for shotguns. So it won't kill from a range without a headshot, but it can still bodyshot if you're close enough unlike the chaperone. Of course this means he chaperone will need a more exotic exclusive perk though...

I hear you man! Felwinter's Lie is what caused this problem in the first place! I hate damn thing with all of my heart because of what happened when it got released in the Iron Banner. I remember the days when it didn't matter what shotgun type you went into the crucible with, provided it had the right perks on it. Then FL comes out, and suddenly if you have one you can kill anyone coming at you with a shotgun before they can get into effective range to take you out. To compound that mistake they had rangefinder and shot package, which only inflamed the problem to unbearable effect, and now we've completely lost that perk. There was nothing, NOTHING, wrong with the balance of shotguns until that cursed weapon started circulating!!! It was a horribly shortsighted idea that started like most horrible ideas do: it sounded good at the time. Instead of fixing the individual weapon type, or putting limits on the rolls you can get for either high range, or high impact shotguns, they gave the axe to the entire weapon type, not to mention what's probably the BEST perk to have for a shotgun, shot package. It was castrated enough when it only narrowed the firing cone by 20%, but that still wasn't enough for Bungie. Now the only way for shotgun lovers to compensate is to use the exotics, OR use the very archetype that ruined them in the first place.I myself am guilty of that because anything short of maxed out range and impact just won't cut it in the crucible anymore. I long for the days when I go in and wreck people with The Crash or my Comedian, but those are gone, and are never coming back...

8 답변I still get killed at ridiculous ranges by Party Crashers and Conspiracy Theories. They absolutely do not need any more range. And the usable range of a shotgun in real life is irrelevant. It's not about what's realistic, it's about what's balanced. If shotguns get more range, we'll go right back to 90% of players doing nothing but shotgun rushing. If it weren't possible to move from one side of the map to the other in mere seconds, I might agree with you. But all of Destiny's movement abilities mean that shotguns have got to have very short range to keep them in check.

Honestly, when people try to justify game mechanics by quoting real life its just....sad. I feel that we shouldn't really have to point out there is a clear line of demarcation between the two. Hell, running and jumping and firing a Sniper Rifle all at the same time is a hell of a lot more unrealistic then your shotgun issue.

1 답변You need a shotgun with range finder and a range middle perk now to kill from afar I'd recommend party crasher +1 ,or the queens shotgun.
-
2 답변I use Deidris's retort and I am able to reliably two shot someone at decent range, so idc really. I personally think that the Conspiracy Theory D archetype of shotguns needs to be removed, then shotgun range be buffed again. This way, you don't have any more sniper shotguns for the most part.

I have a solution but probably no one will agree "use shotguns in pve and fusion rifles in pvp" fusion rifles allow high damage like a shot gun but since they have a charge rate the player you are trying to kill will have a chance to survive

41 답변While real life shotgun range would be game breaking (I'm a life long hunter), the fact that warlock melees have more range than shotguns says something is seriously wrong.

1 답변start using fusion rifles! :) they are sooooooo good and it is easy to switch to if your a main shot gunner.
