Hunt: Showdown 1896

Can we please nerf shotguns?
I just ran into a team that had 3 terminus and levering and just spammed at me as a solo and I couldn't even shoot because my guy kept flailing because of the tiny damage it would do and they just spammed till they got close enough to kill me. (btw they all ran dragons breath)

No we can't nerf a gun that's useless without levering outside of 5 meters because you decided to play solo and got stomped in a 1v3. Shotguns serve a purpose and don't do anything else. If we nerf shotguns, other weapons shouldn't one hit with headshots either.

Shotguns do need a nerf. They cause WAY too much aim punch. If you get hit with one at 40m you can't even fight back and they can just hit you over and over until you are dead. They are broken as F right now. Best weapon in the game is currently a crown and king with flechette. If you die using one then you suck.

I think bolt actions and lever actions need a buff. They should universally have 20% faster cycle rate. I say this as a shotgun solo who routinely owns long ammo noobs 1v3 with my trusty rival.

Breach loaders should also kill at point blank range IMO. Maybe only to the upper torso so that shotguns are still better up close, but I shouldn't see a sparks and think they are a nice free kill up close.

Goober trooper. There is no point in using flachette. A better status effect than bleeding is killing somebody in a single shot. Both slugs and buckshot are better.

I do think the crown with slugs is the best weapon. For buckshot I prefer the rival.
