Why aren't YOU using Shotguns in PVE?
Do share, why don't you use them? And I'd rather have more specific reason than "I don't like them" (which is a valid reason ofcourse), because I'm curious why don't you like them.
Thank you!
EDIT: Typo, and thank you for feedback. :p
-
I prefer snipers in PvE, because I prefer to keep distance between me and the enemies. There are few times that you need to be that close to an enemy that will require the use of a shotgun.
-
Range on them (lack of) makes me feel like I'm Emil from Halo Reach trying to "Shotgun snipe" everything... Lightswitch
-
Snipers are op and way more useful in almost any situation. Not a huge fan of face checking the sword bearer
-
Snipers just seem like a better choice. But I'll try shotguns more now
-
I use them in pve... they get shit done
-
A) I do B) they suck against bosses
-
I don't like them. Plain and simple. I like precision weapons and don't prefer CQC.
-
Because if I'm going to get that close to something then I'm just going to punch, knife or forcefield it to death

-
I like to alternate myself between my fusion rifle and shotgun. Normally i only use my shotgun on my titan just for boss rush down of group clear outs

Edited by BlaQinci7: 2/9/2015 4:02:01 PMBomb you're dead. And now time to blink shotgun your team mates... Tah tahh Ohh pve never unless I'm leveling up... And then I switch when I turn in bounties.

Edited by HederaFox: 2/9/2015 3:38:54 PMI like sniper rifles, and fusion rifles better.

1 ReplyI actually do use shotguns in pve! Probs cause I use a pulse, which works good on everything that isn't close range. Which is where Shotties comes in. So...my most used loadout is getting a lot stronger!
-
1 ReplyBecause I'm waiting for the buff on Tuesday.

-
terrible range, damage, and apparently the a.i, can sidestep your shot.
-
1 ReplyNo range, insane reloads, pitiful rate of fire.
-
1 ReplyBasically because either A mobs will normally melee you to death before you can kill it with a shotgun or B mobs will do a devastating aoe ground pound move which will again kill you before you can kill them
-
it one shots most mobs 2 shots for enemies like captains
-
3 RepliesNo range, may as well punch stuff instead and have a Fusion Rifle equipped.
-
I do for the first part of vog. Shotguns drop praetorians very quickly, making then much less annoying. Low levels should try it on gatekeeper! But in general i use a sniper, since im usually not right next to my target.
-
I love them in PvE
-
U know how ridiculously op those AI mobs' melee is? They recover from melee extremly fast
-
Because snipers do the most damage in the game, and shotguns have nothing on 5-6k crit shots. >.<
-
Every time I use one it will hit for like 15 damage
-
I use my 4th horseman vs crota all the time the range is incredable
