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
-
Because it seems that I get meleed to death after unloading a shot at point blank range every single time.
-
I don't use shot guns because I fell they're too easy to get kills with. So personally I rather snipe. But that's just me
-
Good for bridge encounter. Killin thrall while holding down the plates.
-
I always hav :P
-
I use em. The drop enemies very quickly once u get their shield down
-
Fusion rifles are better
-
I have one equipped just in case but usually use my vex or hawkmoon.
-
They aren't good and if I am going to be in close quarters, I would rather use a fusion rifle to cause more damage. Not to mention the fact that all of the difficult PvE content requires you to stay back or else you risk dying.
-
I use them on PVE when the mission is one level below the one I have...
-
I use a sniper for secondary. If I'm close enough for a shotgun I am using my primary or melee.
-
Recoil and they just don't seem to be effective until melee range. They also don't quite have that powerful shotgun feel like in other games that have them.
-
I prefer medium range engagements. However, I do sport a shotgun on occasion. I'm decent with shotguns, I simply prefer Bad Juju or auto rifles.
-
Some dregs got together and made a petition, says I gotta stop killing them with shotgun
-
Not enough range or enough damage at close quarters to justify it over a fusion rifle
-
To risky

Edited by williamofficial: 2/7/2015 2:01:24 AMI don't use them because they are complete overkill on most enemies. The enemies that have enough health to not be complete overkill I wouldn't want to get into shotgun range for. Snipers and Fusions are just more useful, but I'd like to see how effective shotguns are in PvP after the buff.
-
Its wank for everything above patrols.
-
Because the update didn't happen yet
-
Umm because why in a ducks fuzzy butthole would I need to be that close to any enemy and if I am scout rifle kills just as good up close as far away. At least for now
-
You will instantly be a pile of ashes in nightfall
-
I don't mind using them on patrol missions but for more serious stuff like nightfalls or even some weeklies chances are that it'll only tickle an enemy who possibly doesn't even flinch (angry modifier?) and will then proceed to one hit lightswitch you in the face.
-
Depends on where I am. If I know I'm going to be charged by a knight or equivalent? I just grad my shotty. Stagger them and finish them. It has its place.
-
Because there are some applications where nlb performs better than it. If this is the case then the weapon is not used.
-
The day the thrall and I can hold hands will be the day that I use a shotgun in PVE.
-
I do use them. Sometimes staying far behind sniping and touching myself gets boring. Why not touch yourself while getting the enemies insides get all over you.
-
For the most part, I use a Universal Remote/Secondary Shotgun with my Warlock. I'm usually at the top in kills for ROC strikes. It's fun to play differently.
