Nobody complained about the Black Hammer, no need to fix it. Same goes for the icebreaker, wtf. Those guns don't ruin your decaying game, most people don't even use the strategies you thought were such a problem. Also decreasing the effectiveness of shotguns in PvE... are you high, the problem was only with PvP. Don't make changes that are unnecessary. Now Captains will laugh in our face when we are at close range.
Thanks to that nerf to shotguns in pve, now prison of elders is going to suck when you have an ultra captain coming at you and your shotgun isn't doing enough damage
I'm a little pissed about the ice breaker thing. 8 seconds for one round is a little much. I haven't picked up my Ice breaker in a while, now I may never pick it up again. And black hammer is now pretty much a regular sniper, might as well keep using my spear when killing other enemies.
