"The 4th Horseman" Flawless 23-0 gameplay: http://youtu.be/70NwUYdn4ik The last couple days with The 4th Horseman shotgun have been filled with mixed feelings. Not having leveled it up enough to make it useable, the gun, in my opinion is nearly worthless if you are not in knifing distance. Having earned enough XP to unlock field choke and hand loaded, maxing out the range on this weapon, it makes The 4th horseman just a bit better. Not by much, but at least to the point where it is slightly useable in SOME situations. I found this shotty is best used in extreme close quarters maps, and rumble. Also, it may be a viable option in control for holding choke points, but you would probably have a hard time capping and holding flags with this weapon. Recoil on The 4th horseman is low, even without the stability perks. You have an option to make this weapon have 100% stability, but I wouldn't trade range for stability, as this weapon has enough stability as is, and would only make this weapon harder to use. But does it need a buff? Yes. This weapon is definitely not at exotic weapon standards. The range needs to be upgraded to at least double, fitted stock should be built in and replaced with another perk, and the "return to sender" perk should also be swapped out for something else, perhaps a unique exotic perk. The Invective and the Found Verdict do everything The 4th Horseman does, but better. Mastering The 4th Horseman will be a great achievement. If you have mastered the 4th Horseman, you have mastered everything.
