    That and point blank/ hip fire sniper rifles. I swear.. the number of 100% accuracy point blank headshot snipers / shotgun in this game makes me feel like half the server are pros on vacation from their main gig.

    looks like you got very unlucky, it looks like you were about 8-10m away.
    at that range Bruiser is doing around 800/900 damage,
    meaning it would have took most pellets landing and atleast a few headshots for a oneshot.

    i don't have an issue with shotguns in this game (with exception of flechette and baron),
    they do what they should, wreck people in CQC but get completely outgunned from across a room.
    what i don't like is Wrel's quest to give them more range (as mentioned earlier with flechette and baron)
    wrel took a cqc powerhouse weapon and gave it range for no apparent reason.

    if i could change shotguns i'd increase their dmg a little within 8m,
    increase pellet spread and massively increase damage drop off (and also remove flechette)
