Proposals: Sawed Off & Sheriff Changes.

I'm all for the cuff and S&W changes. I'd prefer to be able to fight people instead of cuffing since it's more enjoyable.

The part where it says something along the lines of “sheriffs are to use cuffs over fighting” should be removed.

 

PUH- LEASE
@Eil make these changes :V
I don't even know how many times me and hitchens argued with you to make some of these changes like

The entire god damn community wants them :VVVV
Also, @SoullessAngel_ as far as reducing the crit damage of the sawed off, what damage would you suggest? I feel like the sawed off is used for the sole reason of its damage. I think a better nerf may be to reduce its magazine to one? That would maybe make it less likely to get two tapped every time you walk through a door xD

 

Or maybe make the time in between shots longer?

 

Nafsu mentioned that they should half the damage but make it shoot faster than the model. I like it because it keeps it in the meta but doesn't instantly kill a player and end a fight.

EDIT: to avoid confusion, the clip size, bullet spray, and everything else about it would stay the same

 

The only thing I would change about cuffing is horse cuffing (Make it impossible to cuff while on a horse). Cuffing is easily avoided; you just shoot one bullet at the sheriff. I think increasing the time in between sawed off shots would make it more balanced, instead of reducing crit damage.

 

That's essentially what my idea is xd Making it a one shot clip would mean you have to reload each time. Perhaps making the reload time longer

 

I know lol I was just trying to make it more convenient in fights while sticking to your nerfing idea; I think it would be more beneficial to the player if they didn’t have to reload as often, but the time in between shots was longer as you stated.

True but I think this could work in most scenarios; it could give you more time to pot in between shot some allowing you to live longer. As for team fights / outnumbers, yes it wouldn’t exactly work, but realistically nothing will unless you need it into the ground. Either way, both ideas benefit sheriffs imo

 

Maybe instead of that, increase the time it takes to use other guns after switching from the sawed off to something else?

 

That seems like a very tedious addition to ww pvp system. I don’t think it’s necessarily a good idea, it changes things too much, were as a sawed nerf doesn’t completely change pvp as a whole.

The sawed is fine. This is why we have peaking, if you can out peak the opponent you should win almost any fight. The fact is sheriffs aren't creative enough to look at the gen blunderbliss, which shoots five pellets, each doing 4 damage to the body. Meaning that it does like 4 less damage than all the sawed pellets hitting vs all blunder pellets hitting. They have no excuse. As for cuffing spam the model and you are good. Except for cuffing on horses that is. Y'all need creativity.

 

You’ve never been sheriff so I assume you don’t know what you’re talking about. Blunderbluss is horrible in fights, it’s hip accuracy (even though it’s a shotgun) is bad compared to sawed, it does less damage and takes up space in your hot bar. If you’re even going to use an extra gun as a sheriff use a carc. We don’t need creativity, but you need experience.

 

It has the same stats as the old model with one shot in it and a faster reload time than the sawed off. Use blunder, then rifle or shotgun. I do have experience. Two years of experience.

Your in a fight. You are fighting an exact clone of you in a peak battle. One has a model, one has a sawed and a model. Who wins? One with sawed.
