Sucks for those who took a break or joined the game late and couldn’t obtain this OP shotty.
I’m also not sure why in a hotfix they returned loot from previous few seasons but didn’t add Felwinter’s Lie to the vault. Like the kids say these days, kinda sus.
EDIT:
So I don’t have to repeat myself to every clueless Jimmies out there that claim how it’s not meta and that are other comparable shotguns. IT IS META. Go to the destinytracker and look up what’s the #1 energy weapon, I dare you. As for comparable shotguns...
Look there, Jimmy, aggressive frame shotguns are the best in slot in Crucible. They have the most consistent 1 shot kill rate out of all types of shotguns. And a godroll with the perfect perks for PvP like tightened barrel, accurized rounds, quickdraw and opening shot is as good as it gets.
There are no other aggressive frame shotguns that would come with quickdraw, let alone all 4 perks. There were mindbender’s but it was a friggin RNG grind that couldn’t guarantee a drop in 10 runs, let alone a good roll. I farmed like crazy for weeks back in the day and didn’t get a single one with quickdraw. And now it’s sunset and not even obtainable anymore.
So now I come to try out a new expansion and realize that the one season I missed everyone got a perfect roll aggressive frame shotgun with a QUEST?! It’s a friggin joke!

I mean I wouldn’t mind or care if this thing gets added to the kiosk, but I wouldn’t call it OP. The handling on it is pretty garbage, and the amount of times it actually registers your opening shot isn’t even worth mentioning. I haven’t really been in the mood to play this season but last season my mindbenders ran circles around felwinters. Should be able to use it well even now in gamemodes that aren’t trials or IB, otherwise I’d run astral (another shotgun better than the lie) if you’re fine with running kinetic, or jump on the slug train with a solid first in, last out.
