[Doctor Hazmat]

You're right, the Revolver is due for a nerf.

The OG revolver was nerfed, when the fanning revolver was released.

Still, it's a no-brainer gun that out-preforms most ranged weapons in the game.

Only good bolt pistol is bleed but even then the revolver is just better

It only needs to be nerfed against armor. Everyone who shot a hand cannon in real life will know that revolvers and pistol accuracy and groupings are not that good above 30 yards (roughly 27 meters) but I get that it would be to much realism.
But a Stub (equals a 44 mag or at max a 45 ACP) hollowpoint doing more damage on armored targets than a .75 cal. armor piercing rocket propelled grenade(as real life equivalent only the 700 Nitro express rifle comes to my mind) is too much for "Suspension of disbelief".

The rending blessing needs to be removed from the Revolver for this to work. And it should be removed since it is pretty much the only thing which turns the Revolver into an overtuned mess.

Disagree. They're different.

Bolt guns never get any love and if this is the state of which they put out the bolt pistol, I doubt they ever will.

Revolver being the second best carapace buster for humies behind plasmeme has got to go.

People complain about the damage diff between the two.
I'm valuing the reload speed of bolt pistol over the revolvers any day of the week because of how quickly I can be ready to shoot targets again versus manual loading one bullet at a time.
Both have their place; what you choose to value is your choice.
Also that critical weakspot damage blessing for bolt pistol is chef's kiss for my veteran running deadshot.

Exactly, I'm seeing a lot of goofy takes on the steam hub and it's like some people don't see the value of some of these items because they aren't playing higher difficulties or something it's insane.

People complaining about pickaxe damage is a prime example of this.

They're not supposed to compete in the same niche in the first place.
