does anyone else get the feeling they nerfed the scattershot alot since halo 4? because ive shot many guys with it point blank and they dont die. and most times you dont get the chance for a second shot. loathsome thing has faster fire-rate so it fixes that problem but that’s a warzone only weapon. and even then it still feels weak. does anyone feel the same way?
They buffed it.
The upgraded shields mod in Warzone might cause the scattershot to take two shots to kill
i find it to be alot stronger… its better than the shotgun now
I agree with the op, I literally cant seem to kill anyone with it. Seems to be near useless for me.
ADS with it, you will get satisfying results
it feels more plastic/marshmellow but it is very effective when used around corners or surprised by and spartan charge
Are you using the smart scope? That helps me out even in close quarters.

upgraded shields only works against AI enemies
i still get 4 shot by a BR and OHK by shotguns
It’s a tickler Shotgun, and the whole ricochet homing rounds are weird

if you use smart link while shooting the spread isn’t as wide making it much more effective. I agree just hip firing though it takes two shots. I really only use it when defending bases or with bosses I can get close enough to. hope that helps.
The bounce so OP. Please don’t nerf. Its so easy to dodge the scattershot’s bounce. In Team Arena its a one shot if the are fully in proximity. Warzone can vary as the Upgraded Shields mod can allow you take to a little more damage than normal especially against a sniper, maybe not the Nornfang. I have not experienced it yet.
I have a Loathsome thing, that’s an upgraded one, not only do I hit him dead on once, I also skim him twice, yet he still kills me.
What is this thing? Its supposed to have “Increased damage, faster rof and extended mag”
This takes up a bloody legendary slot and is utter turd.
Completely agreed, it feels SO WEAK, en fact it is SO WEAK. It can’t be compared to the shotgun
Rocket launcher feel very weak
I think if you ADS, the effective kill range increases.
Too everyone commenting saying i should ADS. i have been doing that alot as well but it still feels like its so weak. i honestly do feel the weapon needs a buff to damage only.

Not true. Upgraded shields works for all damage. Take a melee or a sniper bodyshot and notice that your shields won’t drop. I believe it makes it so you’re 5-shot with the BR now.
no OP its actually feels like a real shotgun now not like in halo 4 where its complete BS

Don’t know how ur using it then, because I wreck with this thing, it doesnt have much of a soread though, gotta get the shot really central for one shot kill.
