Im running around minding my business laying links down when I hear "blap" then my clone dies immediately after. Gko scout dren shotgun. I was at full health 443 shield 112 armor. And i got one shotted... i was an ewar cal logi but enough shield and regen to run away. But wtf one shotted by a std bpo shotgun. My rage consumed me and the I love carpet came out where I just threw res for the rest of the match. Point I'm trying to make is shotguns at lower levels are to ridiculous. If i get killed by a duvolle specialist I'm fine but a dren come on thats over 550 damage with one shot

It's possible he was stacking enough damage mods to compensate along with maxed out core skills and a maxed out shotgun proficiency. I can turn a pair of militia nova knives into wrecking machines if I skill up everything necessary and sacrifice all of my defenses for that extra bit of damage.

Headshot or damage mods by the sound of it.
Proto Shotty deals 475 damage a shot to armor, and 668 to shields in one shot (Assuming all 12 pellets connect)
Running anything less than this on a fit makes you liable to insta-blapping

I know Ishukone Nova Knives, when fully charged on a Scout Mk.0 with all complex damage mods, will instantly OHK almost every heavy in the game. I've even killed a tank with these butter knives.

Shotguns cannot take longer to kill than a rifle. Otherwise why bother?

The real issue is here that an Adv weapon is 5% more damaging then standard, and a proto is 10% more damaging then standard, so while your proto weapon is 20% more damaging, you can reach or exceed this value in maxed prof and damage mods. If it was a proto scout that blapped you, I'm betting he was packing cmods and had maxed prof, especially with that huge amount og PG and CPU he's saving using a basic weapon.

This has been a widely shared complaint. The shotgun especially combined with a well damped scout wreks havoc in this game. I think there are many valid complaints here but, very few reasonable solutions to the problem. That being said, one of my joys I get from this game is using a very cheap suit and killing a very expensive suit. very very satisfying. Is like the poor man giving it to the rich guy. |

I understand your frustration but have you played a fps recently that didn't have any 1 hit kill weapons....especially shottys and sniper rifles?
its a shotgun....how many shots do you think it should take to kill a suit as light as yours? And i am sure you know this but you have chosen to fit your suit in a way that makes this possible.
Since 1.9 dropped i have been killed by shotgun scouts maybe three times max. If you stay mobile the bad hit detection on the shotgun will work in your favor. Listen for the first missed shots and react accordingly. ymmv

Did you stay on the kill screen long enough to see how much damage they did? Did you know there's a glitch where you can fire two shotgun shots at the same time, and it might just be the player using the glitch to gain the surprise alpha boost instead of the shotgun itself being broken? |

I use 3 cx precision enhancers on my logis Plus an Active scanner.
Proximity Most of the times.
Focused in case of gal/cal dampened shotgunners.
Another way to avoid them is sticking with a group of blues, or if you want to go around placing uplinks, use an LAV.

What can we say that has not already been said. It is frustrating to die this way and it is easy mode to run scout + shotgun + cloak.
However, it does seems to happen less frequently since a reasonable delay to firing weapons after uncloaking has been implemented.
That said I wish CCP would just limit scouts to sidearms in order to fix this once and for all but I doubt this will happen. I sometimes run a min scout with nova knifes and a sub-machine gun (in order to maximize the benefits of my complex sidearm damage modifiers) and it is very effective. There is no need for scouts to have light weapons. |

True, but there are two problems with your suggestion.
Minscouts have no bonus to melee and I want all of my victims to drop dead on the first hit. No need to waste time following up with a Falcon Punch if they're already dead.

I had my 400 shield and 400 armor min proto assault melted in one shot by a standard shotgun. Thing is nuts damage wise. Gotta remember though that it has garbage range so it shouldn't be so viable if your team isn't being ******** and spreading out to the entire map, which typically happens causing shotguns to seem unfair. |
