I have 5 operation and 2 proficiency but I cant seem to shoot anything thats more than 2m in front of me but I am getting whacked by other shotgunners when I am more than 2m away. Am I missing something? Let me in on the secret please

haha but the real pros have chased me down with a shotgun and killed me, usually a militia shotgun in an advanced or proto Gallente

Hit detection and lag is why I dropped the weapon but now I can kill everyone but heavies with just a sidearm. I am actually now good, its high time I become immortal haha

I have fired numerous clips and couldnt seem to kill someone at point blank range so I gave up on the weapon, I hear its hit detection. I would really love to be able to kill when in the open chasing down almost dead enemies. Aim for the head. I will take that advance. I scrapped all my Ewar modules apart from precision enhancer, going with 3 enhanced repairs and loving it. I can duck and return with almost full eHP and finish 3 enemies at a go, very much fun haha

K den.
Too many conflicting advice
I am at level 5 operation and I think level 2 proficiency. Whenever I got killed by the shotgun its always been at a longer range than I can shoot. I dont know if increasing proficiency will change much. I had to default to a breach scrambler pistol when all else failed. I even used a breach shotgun when I was fed up of almost killing enemies. I do think that the shotgun does give me overconfidence as I chase down 5 enemies when I am with it. I was more careful when I used only sidearms

Am I missing something? Let me in on the secret please Dude you have to be aggressive. You shoot the merc once and back up I bet. Shoot him in his face then shoot him behind his face.
Sadly with my Amarr I cant do jumping jacks like all the Galente and Minamatar Scouts I have come across.
I gave up on the breach scrambler pistol too
Now I use a combat rifle and a flaylock: increase to blast radius is very enticing to make me skill it up.
I have remotes and cloak in my equipment slot but my other fitting has uplinks instead of remotes and I just see a heavy and just stand still and die since I cant do much

I m guessing red bottle is kin cats. I have to admit that its getting harder, with all the protos, I needed 2 complex damps to not get scanned. If I met KB/M users its useless with single shot weapons if I dont finish them before they see me, thats why I am using the flaylock. Strafing is one thing but moving around in semi circles or circles and shooting perfectly is another story

I have killed a lot of scouts with my breach scrambler it works like a shotgun, but with lag its useless, flaylock works wonders with lag as I dont have to aim. With all the skills I spent on the scrambler, the target HUD or whatever its called is so small that its very easy to miss, especially during freeze frames and circle strafing. I am in no way a new player though. I guess automatic weapons do make up for the lag and other frame rate issues. My preferred weapons are
Light slot : Breach scrambler pistol
sidearm slot: Bolt pistol
but lag and hit detection issues makes using it a chore
