Ok, I got your message you sent me. You were saying buckshots are in a good place while slugs need some help. Slugs are horrible in this game. Not sure if you seen my post about it. I was asking for slugs to have 1.5x upper chest multiplier so accurate shots extended the OHK out to 20m. I started to realize that this might be OP on PC. They should just increase the effective range on them. Their intended range is 30 meters with a 2HK. That’s straight up pathetic in this game. This basically means your going to get outgunned by every class and even some pistols, but that’s a whole different topic. Not sure if you used slugs in BF1, but the 2HK was 55 meters. You would think Dice would be smart enough to keep the same damage model from BF1 with how open and large these maps are in BF5. This is the hardest nerf slugs seen in the whole franchise. Here is the link about slugs I posted [Shotgun slugs are pretty pathetic](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/shotgun-slugs-are-pretty-pathetic/106734)
