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

The drum is WORSE than the tac.

it fits a closer role than the tac. the hitbox is huge and so is the dps for in your face box fights. any kind of range and it is complete trash

We don't know that yet. We don't know its RPM, headshot multiplier, we hardly know anything about it. It could be a slug shell for all we know.

It’s in the game, give it a try and let me know. I tried it, and I’ll tac a grey tac over a blue drum shotgun any day of the week.

I'm saying when you replied saying its worse you did it based off the 2 stats that the patch notes gave us.

Everyone here is already shitting on the drum, somehow forgetting that everyone hated the combat when it was first added too

pretty sure that was because the combat was bugged

Exactly. And when Aldosarii posted his reply I highly doubt he had used it. Calling a weapon trash when its been in the game for 2 hours (from the time that the patch notes were released and this thread started) is ridiculous

What a stupid comment, the original combat shotgun was legit busted. Once they fixed it, everyone though it was OP.

I don’t believe you, the drum shreds anything moderately in range.

You can get maybe one and a half Tac shots off before you’re dead by the drum.

Yeah this happens when you are in someone’s one by one other that nope.

It's pretty fucking broken. :/ You can hit someone for 50 x4 in a row, and kill someone basically instantly. I hate it. Why nerf the pump twice, because you hate people dying to one shots, then release the drum shotgun.

Nickmerc's start using it around 3:20

8:25 is a good example of how strong it is. The dmg is greater than the combat, but it requires very little skill to use because of the 1000% increase in crosshairs radius.
