    Increase the range to that of smg, but do half damage at max range.

    buffing means talents etc, there was only this can scaling up the DPS of weapon in the game, i played TD1 , i know how many way or possible way Ubisoft would get weapon more "powerful" . i can said, it wouldn't be happen, even a 3yrs life of TD1 didn't happen( only adding exotics weapon or adjustment in that periods), how can it happen in TD2!!!!

    whatever, it's, if u is talking about DPS, it wouldn't change in TD i sure, only new talents would possibly be added if there was such things, or u want any adjustment on weapon DPS etc wouldn't be happen.

    I'm not saying anything about shotguns themselves. Just China's light. It's extremely difficult to find decent gear and the fact you need 2 pieces of China's light for shotgun damage is unnecessary. Especially compared to every other weapon damage bonus on the brands not including yaahl and providence.

    Suggestions

    I totaly agree with every word, plus I have something addition:
    - while carrying a bulwark shield ( that one with pistol) in front of you (aiming or not, it doesnt matter) when I want to use primary or secondary weapon it should be done automaticaly without necessary to hide shield first. Same goes to "get behind cover";
    - second of all, its just my personal taste based experience with fantasy MMO. there are 4 specialization (so far) and 4 places in party so there should be 4 build available. A party need healer, tank, dps, dmg. furthermore , challenges should be difficult enough tfor party to must have a tanker/healer. Healer in The DIvision has very important work to do and that is how it should be. The Division 2 has nice mechanics but it seems like you dont give a freak about balnce in game.
    anyway... I dont like Raid cuz its boring. Everyone mostly are running with Assalut Rifle or LMG(I dont like LMG the most). Its good that you made a challenge that paople must have coordinated behivior but..... bring back tanker and healer build;
    Before that 100%+ skill haste-something came up , Hive worked pretty nice and was useful.
    - oh, and please add shotgun to Clutch talent in gloves;

    I'm more or less ok with the effective range because it's a shotgun so i don't expect to snipe with it. But my biggest problems with shotguns has always been the spread being too big, which i have stated in multiple threads.

    do u know , short gun should aim to the body( or heart around), not the head, u can test it in shooting range. , yes, head shot is more damage, but short gun would get more "powerful" if u aim to body not the head, esp high damage to NPC 's shield

    Regarding TU6, i imagine the bonuses will change and hopefully for the better. If the bonuses remain the same at least there will be more options on what i can equip to get the bonuses. Because as of right now there is pretty much no reason to wear any kneepads other than Gila.

    do u have "premeditated " talent on shotgun, it's fairly enough for boosting power/DPS of any shotgun, however, i didn't know which type of shotgun u is favor or usually using, u should add a talent that is well suit to shot gun.

    premeditated is so well suit for shot gun which have small ammo and reload one by one bullet each time.

    it can boost up to 50% DPS from fully reload !!!!! plus u add 15% boost from special class, it's a god like talent to shotgun

    Premeditated is what makes shotguns worth using. Like unhinged for lmg's. I use an 870. But like i said originally, it's kind of absurd needing 2 China's light for more damage when the majority of weapons get bonuses on 1 brand piece or awesome bonuses overall. See original post for specifics.
