izzatuw Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 So the shotgun buff listed this: "Death at close to mid range will now toss enemies into a forceful ragdoll." So is there any actual use I'm missing here besides lawl factor or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monsterwithin Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 That you feel good about yourself every time to blow away a level 80 gunner with one shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utarious Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Pretty sure it's just giggle factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krak_Nihilus Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 They overbuffed shotguns like x10 times more than needed and possible nerf inc Some shotguns already got nerfed during this buff. Like for example strun wraith with 4.1 reload or boar prime with increased reload, decreased status chance and fire rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OniGanon Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 If you don't mod your shotgun with Punch Through, the ragdoll on death helps you by knocking enemy corpses away so they don't hinder your ability to shoot behind them. If you do mod for Punch Through or the gun already has it (eg: Kohm, Drakgoon) then... it looks cool and is hilarious to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GinKenshin Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 because blowing your enemies face off is always welcomed :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YashiroSora Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Im not sure if it works like on bows, but for bows, enemies that are ragdolled will have momentum and if it collides with an enemy it will be hit with the same damage as the target which is ragdolled.

I dont have any shotgun by myself but friend said his hek has 60k damage and this is kinda... much more than opticore ... which is useless as hell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)OMGITSNUKERXD Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Make it look a bit realistic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tennoninjahunter Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Make it look a bit realistic? basically ^ and besides, i like it, who cares if it dont do anything else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuggetsTheCat Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 Realistic? Pretty sure if you shot someone at point blank range with a shotgun it would just tear them to shreds. It wouldn't send them flying 100m away. I like it though for the exact opposite reason in that it's entirely unrealistic. As already pointed out though the ragdoll effect is meant to be able to knock other enemies over. I've never noticed it but then I've never really looked out for it.

Question
izzatuw
So the shotgun buff listed this:
"Death at close to mid range will now toss enemies into a forceful ragdoll."
So is there any actual use I'm missing here besides lawl factor or what?
