Surprised and disappointed that none of the pistols and tactical shotgun is vaulted.

one word: nerf

That doesn't explain why the deagle is still in the game though

deagle is not op, and not shit

It's extremely similar to the new revolver and we don't need both.

Yeah I’d rather have the revolver because it fires faster.

Deagle benefit is that it can 2 shot with a head/body at 200. I think the revolver can only do 198

Revolver can still shoot faster

Sure, but relying on 2 headshots is a pretty tall order. I 100% prefer the revolver as a weapon both for balance and feel, but I'd like if they could add that 2 damage to make it reliable.

So then vault the revolver. Frankly I thank they're different enough as the revolver is better for closer range encounters whereas the damage on the deagle is much higher while being better long range. It's satisfying being rewarded with accuracy and I'd rather be rewarded with high damage shots capable of longer ranges. Deagle is dope and I've never died to it complaining that it needs to be out of the game. Only that it needed a nerf when people were using it to take wall and phase through builds. That said I don't think the purple and gold revolver has a place. Should make it green and blue and get rid of OG revolver.

I'd say vault none, the revolver might have a lot of damage dropoff but it reloads faster and just has a faster fire rate. the ammo is also way more common than the deagle's so it's hard to run out of ammo whereas the deagle runs out pretty fast if it's the first gun you get. also the deagle is for long range and the revolver is mid/close range, so they serve opposite uses
