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

Thank you! EDIT: Typo, and thank you for feedback. :p[/quote] Go up to 3 different groups of enemies (because they rarely aren't in a group) and face blast with a shotty...did you live? Did you die? How much health did you have after? Now do the same with other weapons, obviously you don't have to be in melee range. Did you live?die? Loss of health? Now-reloading...to my knowledge all shotguns are single slug reload, no other weapons are-that have a higher than 1 round clip. The above will never change...why? Pvp. Instant clip reload would make pvp even more of a shotty fest than it already is. Pvp maps in this game are largely built on face to face combat. I love shotguns, but in a game where nearly all enemies can one-shot (or nearly one-shot) it makes no sense to use it...you cause more stress to teammates than damage output by using this face to face weapon class.
