Why?
I know the TIWD had more going on but this here caught my attention of a unless change.
What's the point of activating Trench Barrel from a distance when you'd still need to be up close for the shotgun to even be effective? Am I missing something here?
This is like giving Airborn Effectiveness on Whisper of the Worm all over again (Also I still have yet to see an airborne Whisper DPS person/group)
Just change Trench barrel back to how it was by just a timer (if I remember right).
Edit:
So from the comments its just a QoL update and the only thing that benefits is the solar melee (for radiant) and you'd still have to get close to use the shotty anyways...

Because it's awesome. Now let it proc stowed, so you can combo a sword with a Trench Barrel weapon. I can use my shuriken, knife trick, and the smoke combo with weaken. There's a great shotgun loop for Falcon with this change. Void Warlock should combo well too. This was the change I wanted but never thought I'd get.
