Once I got into shape with the Scattershot in Halo 5, I found just how underpowered it was compared to the standard UNSC Shotgun. Maybe sacrifice range for more power? What do you guys think?
It’s ok as it is for me… the only thing about all CQ weapons is the unreliabiliy…
Scattershot, shotgun… sometimes they are a 1shot kill from 10meters, sometimes you can shove it down the enemy throat and only pop the shields
Thats the only problem i have with scatteeshot (and Shotgun)
Not sure if a buff is completely necessary. It does have more ammo than the shotgun, so although it may have less power, it has more shots, and the rounds bounce off of walls too.
More than one occasion have I had to use 2 shots to kill a Spartan for what could have been 1 shot if using the UNSC Shotgun.
Scattershot definitly needs a buff
I like the scattershot in this game. It’s got homing bullets
it probably doesn’t, but I did just watch my son lose out on a couple of kills that really looked like he should have gotten.
it was probably latency.

I find the Scattershot to be completely random at times. I’ve blasted people when my gun was in their mouth just to have them still not die. Yet I’ve killed people with one shot when they were roughly 10-15 ft away ?
They just need to give it a damage buff. not like lawgiver, though. just slightly less than it.

The Scattershot and Loathsome Thing need a buff. Period. I just watched a video of someone put three full shots center mass in an enemy Spartan at melee range and still die to an AR. Fix it already so I can do my commendation. Make it a solid two shot kill weapon at REQ level 3.

This is very accurate. It’s not thats it’s underpowered, it just seems like I can never get any consistency out of it. At times it’s exactly what it should be, and then others it’s just a light show. No damage at all sometimes,
Random chances of getting a kill? Hey sometimes it’s better to be lucky than good (see Spartan 117).
Ha but seriously, it could use a buff but there isn’t one I won’t be upset. I personally haven’t seen any severe inconsistency.
