Flawinter's Lie OP or Nah?
It's hard to toss around the word or abbreviation "OP" properly in a game filled with so many cheap ways to get killed but many think Felwinter's Lie is this super OP shottie/sniper that ruins PVP. I do die by it often but since I prefer to stick with teammates it's rare to see Felwinter's go on a killing spree due to its poor ROF. So I ask: Is Felwinter's lie flawed and overpowered or balanced by its slow ROF? Thoughts?

I'm not in love with it. It's a friggin elephant gun, that's for sure, but if you miss your first shot you're probably dead. I was extremely lucky in last week's nightfall and got a Judgement VI with Luck in the Chamber, Hammer Forged, and Shot Package. It's impact is a smidge lower than FL, but it's twice the shotgun because it fires faster. Honestly, waaaaaay too much has been made of FL's impact and deadliness. As long as your shotty has Shot Package and Hammer Forged it's a beast. Until I got that judgement VI the best shotty I had was the vendor version of Secret Handshake. It was WAAAAY better and deadlier than my FL with shot package.
