What's with Frag Shotgun?

(1/3) > >>

Nick:
Will you do something with it? Bump from unique 7d3 to exotic 8d3, turn into Dum-Dum shotgun ( http://forum.chaosforge.org/index.php/topic,6111.150.html ), something else?

LuckyDee:
I've had a look through the thread you're referring to, regarding the dum-dum rifle, and although I'm in no position to offer an official statement on this, I think it's safe to say that with the arrival of Jupiter Hell, you're going to have to be a little more patient.

What I did do was have another look at the Wiki for the Frag Shotgun - I found it for the very first time in one of last month's runs and had forgotten all about your earlier comments on it - and found this:


--- Quote ---Comments/special:    This weapon is overnerfed because of it's "beta" nature.
--- End quote ---

If I understand the rather shaky UI correctly, it was you who made this contribution. Is that correct, and if so, what prompted you to do so please?

Nick:
Yeah, these things are strongly correlated. As far as I remember, in one of the short discussions (not in my big thread) someone asked "why it's so weak" and the answer was sorta "because it's a weapon of ,,what-if`` concept, not a ripe fruit". So I've mentioned that in the wiki comments; and than, all of sudden, I've got a good idea. Why guessing if I can just come here and ask: are you really still going to do something with it? Or maybe I should remove my comment? So I've asked.
Ahem... maybe I should ask BEFORE I fill the "comment" field... Sprytne pomysły są zawsze późno.

I wish to have such a thing IRL someday O_o

Although I can't say whether this is wrong or right, I would say that the wiki comments are no place for statements like this, especially since it's neither a solid fact (like the Fire Angel trait not working in 0996) nor an official stance (like the support of the Dragon Slayer secrecty).

You are of course more than welcome to debate the matter over here.

I hadn't any guidelines clear enough to figure out where the exact limit is. Even though they're still questionable, I don't see any reason to keep this comment opened another tab, removed the comment from the wiki.
Something else?

BTW wonder if it's spread will work with Demolition Ammo without engine bugs...
