Instead of nerfing shotguns, Buff primaries. Shotguns are not as good as they used to be, For you year 2 players there was a infamous shottie known as felwinters lie with 2x the range of matador 64(Note that's an exaggeration) The reason that shotguns are so good, is that primaries aren't doing nearly enough damage to take out a shotgun pusher as fast as they can be, by buffing instead of nerfing, you will make it more balanced as primaries will take out pushers restoring the competitive scene to skilled players who can kill with something other then their max range matador 64

3 RepliesWhat a stupid post... Can you imagine if primary weapons killed faster? It would be a disaster Shotguns are not getting nerfed.

I think that most weapens are fairly balanced (most), the thing is that there are a high ammount of abbility's which make shotgunning a lot easyer (juggernaut+titanskate for example). Maybe if bungie could make shotgunning al little bit harder by reducing the effectiveness of those abbility's, people woudnt get killed by shotguns as often. current shotgun users might also use the weapens that they truly want to use (since shotguns wont be dominating as much, and would be easyer to counter with more than just a handfull of weapens). Keep in mind these are just my thoughts, if you disagree please do it in a behaved, normal way.

1 ReplyHa we should know by now that another shotgun nerf is incoming. Whenever I switch over to destiny I have to remember that my shotgun actually can't shoot as far as in other games I play. The biggest problem isn't even primaries, it's movement. Most primaries can kill in under a second. The thing is, players can close gaps insanely fast in destiny. The Titan is the obvious example but, any class can do it with it ease.

5 RepliesEdited by Shaderz: 12/1/2016 11:47:48 PMShotguns aren't the issue shotgun stopping abilities like smoke were nerfed. Weapons are fine. Remove some range from clever archeatype and buff low RoF autos by 1% and we are good. Buffing all primaries makes a fast TTK game and that is not what destiny is

I really wish bungie would buff primaries and maybe some of the other secondaries basically make primaries better make fusions and shotguns more consistent make snipers not feel like a 1,000 pound detriment to you and your team. But as much as I hate it I really think bungie is gonna go the lazy way and give shotguns their tenth nerf (yes I checked shotguns have been nerfed 9 times)

4 Repliesyear one was better with thorn and lastword suros and vex. pulses arent even close to what those primaries were back then. and the funny thing is ppl complained less about shottys back then cuz primaries could actuallly contend

If you can't ohk a Titan with every class of weapon he's going to shotgun you. Seriously, thus while buff all primaries bshit needs to go......

3 RepliesOh boy 0.07 time to kills here we come

Hmm sounds like a sound plan, yup nerf fusions again please bingo

Yes I agree, buff fusion rifles

5 RepliesNot usually a pro nerf guy but something needs to be done with mapador 64 . Full auto, range finder and rifled barrel is way to strong for that gun thus it is used because there is no need for primary nor any need to close the gap with real risk . What happened to thorn should have happened to the long range shot guns . Restore thorn to what it was after the first nerf .

4 RepliesMan you guys are dreaming. Of course Bungie will screw it up that's what they do. These people sit in their office drinking their Starbucks with a pinky up reading their metrics & think they know everything about the game. 90% of the company does not play. How the hell is Bungie going to make any thing in this game better when they have no experience. Bungie will nerf anything good. That is the Bungie way. A blind monkey could run this company better.

Shotgun handling and primaries need a buff. Ever since they -blam!-ed with shotty handling the weapon is so -blam!-ing inconsistent. They simply have no clue how to balance anything!

6 RepliesIt wont matter, shotgunners will always get as close as they can to pump a one shot kill

1 ReplyWhat about: First shotgun or sniper shot takes off a Guardian's shield. Second shot takes their health and kills them? Ooooooorrrr... stop screwing up PvE for the sake of damn PvP?

1 ReplyI wonder if people saying nerf damage drop even realize how far away the targets actually are.

1 ReplyDepending on how much you buff primaries, sidearms and fusion rifles will end up in an even worse spot. It's not that simple...

4 RepliesNo, steep damage falloff so clever dragon isn't eating health bars at scout rifle ranges. Nerf shotgun accuracy and spread when you're parkouring (I.e sliding hopping, flying through the sky) Hey, why not reduced sliding distance while a shotgun is equipped 😋😁 Don't get me wrong, I like shotties but people have just become unreasonable.

Yes. Please BUFF things instead of making other things suck. Give Auto's some love for Donald Duck's sake!
