It is more potent than pre nerf felwinters, it has the highest handling stat making it easier to use than any other agressive frame, it has its own spread pattern which is better than any other, can kill literally anything in one shot and the list goes on
It is not healthy for the crucible, look at the usage and kill stats. It needs to be reigned in whether that is bring its handling down to the lowest possible (so it kill still be a super killer but not as easy to use), turn it into a rapid fire (with the effects landing all pellets would still deal more than an agressive frame but punished for not not landing them), ban it from PvP (no pve nerf just roots out the problem)
Any other suggestions are good but it DOES need tuning and that cannot be denied
Look at the stats before trying to defend the weapon in PvP

I understand it’s really hard to not panic when someone pushes you with a shotgun but conditional users are just as easy to counter as any other shotgun. The range stat is not great, so you have ample time. Regardless, the bungie PvP sandbox [b]depends[/b] on conditional finality at the moment to balance content. We have no other well/bubble counter (which are heavily used in Trials), so we have no choice but to depend on this weapon.
