Bolt shot=?

I believe that the bolt shot NEEDS a nerf because the distance it can reach is insane it is a camper’s best friend it mean like you might as well just spawn with a shotgun it is a mini shotgun you can have at ALL times. I believe it is OP your thoughts?

My thoughts?

Way to make a totally fresh and original topic.
Why don’t you go post on an already established “Boltshot is op QQ” topic?

Sorry man did not see

It’s fine.

Yes, it has a longer range than either the Shotgun or the Scattershot.

It also fails in every other category compared to not only the Shotgun and the Scattershot, but also the Magnum as well when comparing normal fire rates.

There are multiple tools to deal with a player camping with a Boltshot.

Hologram to trick them.
Camo to out sneak them.
Hardlight Shield to eat it.
Thruster Pack to dodge it.
Grenades to kill them.

Either the range needs to be lessened or Boltshot should be treated as a power weapons… that’s my concern regarding.

> Sorry man did not see

Sorry but the Boltshot is CLEARLY a stupid weapon.
It takes about .5 seconds to charge, then you have a whole second to shoot or switch your weapon to save ammo.
A one hit kill at a larger range than a shotgun, two shots per reload and a max ammo of 30.
Easy to find ammo as everybody has one.

The only way to beat it is to stay atleast 10 foot away from any enemy or corner.

It’s fair, because everybody gets to have one, but it’s boring because it’s not fun to use and it’s not fun to be killed by.

These points have been made by a lot of people and there are a lot of topics about it.
I just think if everybody consolidates their ideas into one topic then we have more chance of 343i reacting.

I just hope they do something to make it more fun and less of a pain in the neck/
