You don't need an underbarrel shotgun anyway. You basically have one of the best CQC weapons in the game, maybe even one of the best Planetside 2 weapons of ALL TIME.
so basically SOE screwed up "again" yeah but you have to admit a CQC beast weapon with a shotgun attachment would be cool
You are thinking of the Gauss Rifle S The GR-22 is the best CQB AR anyway, it's practically a high RoF Carbine. Fit it with Advanced Laser and hipfire people down and you won't miss the Shotgun.
Yeah it's good enough in close quarters that even after trying the shotgun in VR I had already decided I wasn't going to waste certs on the shotgun.
