I gotta agree tbh. Generally at the range you're using shotguns then the Romero is your death on a first shot miss, which is insanely punishing compared to every other shotgun. And, y'know, everyone misses sometimes. I run shotguns most of the time and will never touch one. Great range, cheap, fatal flaw.
he’s trying to make the most money. making multiple videos that people will typically watch all the way through in the background will make him more money than one long video (2 hours) going through all weapons where people will just be more inclined to skip around and find the weapon they like to see where it places.
@@LoLTerminus People watch this? I just came to see if there was a text I can read in 10 seconds and there isn't any. I downvote pointless videos like this.
Far be it from me to think I know more about the game than Whityyy, who has like 12k hours, but yeah I really feel like the D and C tiers should be swapped. Maybe leave vanilla romero in D
Romero is a great budget option, IF you can hit your shot. It has great range and will teach you shotgun discipline. For that reason, it makes sense that it has a mixed ranking. Though, putting it in at least the C or even B tier for it's budget, cost to effectiveness ratio would be worth mentioning.
Romero shines in positional game in compound you know perfectly, but universal usage... yeah, I would prefer to have double barrel in forest fights more for sure
I may haveissed it, but did you explain why you didn't include the shorty shotguns? I find that they are very versatile, esp with traits. E.g., Levering with the shorty Terminus for clearing compounds, or using the shorty Romero with the axe to overcome the one shot reload issue in CQB.
Disappointed that despite all the great balance changes Bolt Thrower still doesn't speed up the Bomblance reload to make it viable in competent matches
Usually that happens when big part of fraction hit headzone. In deathmatch i started practising headshot with romero(no slugs) and rhe result was INSANE, some times i hit the targets so far away from that i was surprised that i knocked him. It works with other shoties too btw, but Romero is insane imo
When i played a year ago, terminus levering flechette was my go to. Even on long range you could hipfire cus of the tiny spread. And it guaranteed a speedy 2 shot at close range. And yet caused incredible pressure for longer fights because of the bleed. Now i want to get back into the game, does this still work?
@@Whityyy I am a purely solo player, vs trios, never played in a team and not interested Thats why the bleed pressure is so usefull too. Gives me time to deal with the teammates.
I'd suggest not playing that way. A lot of people are still new to the map, hardly anyone plays mid to long range. Everyone just pushes like crazy even in 5star games. This is primetime buckshot/pennyshot spam.

ye shotguns kinda stayed the same except the random slugs headshot but also misses haha. I kinda like slugs but I 100% had moments when I got screwed over by rng haha
@@Whityyy I wonder if a future event will finally introduce a brand new shotgun, but I'm not sure what they could add that would be significantly different. I suppose you could introduce a double barrel with full length barrels, essentially splitting the difference between a Romero and a Rival. Slightly slower fire rate and reload than a Rival but better range and tighter spread
@@Hina_Hanta i have seen a 4 barrel shotgun on this one historical gun weapon guy's channel that also does hunt showdown weapon reviews which could be interesting
30m buckshot fulldamage from rival... okay, I am weak player who started to play relatively recently (about 1month ago and got 170 hours) and I am so curious about this analytics My aim is not good and while I am trying to get better - I was skipping the shotguns for large time of my gaming expirience as I though they couldn't teach me good However with slight progression on my confidency in aim I decided to start using them as I like to play agressively and they fits my playstyle I was using the rival and liked it when started to play the game... and when I came back to it... I felt something strange. Like it couldn't kill the enemy in 8m with buckshot and even on 14m 2 shots are usually not enough That was weird... As the iteration of prestige cicle was ending I started to waste money on crown n king and damn...even on match where things were going fine - all kills that I made NEVER were in one shot. its absolute disaster. It kills in 1 shot only the enemy who is standing in 2 meteres infront of you. I have many screenshots how people were not dying in 8-10 meteres even after 2 shots and most lmao moments was when the person was standing still.. I sneaked to it.. and he survived 2 shots. Fire rate is a goat and it helps a lot... but wtf? Then I tryed slate and... And it constantly oneshots everything withing 8-10m. I felt no such issues as with rival and auto. Also terminus is designed to be not as precise so maybe it was more about playstyle that I felt okay with not killing the enemy close to me in 1 shot. however unlike with crown n king usually if you didnt kill the enemy in first shot - enemy dies after the second. ------ so I finally desided to take a look on shooting range to test these weapons. And... well it explained alot. slate shots are landed so close to each other but the spread of rival and auto got significantly bigger spread. And when I've seen that I just understood the point. The thing I dont understand that ... why its not mentioned anywhere and how such significant difference could be not noticed. I understand that its basically related to the movement and aim of good players that makes the situations where actually the damage of all shotguns overal perfroms the same (oneshot). But mentioning that buckshot may oneshot the enemy on the range up to 30m? even on shooting range you could never do such thing. Maybe only you'll be lucky enough to lend a headshot
drop range is bullet drop range not damage drop off edit: after 30 meters the bullets start "dropping" aka gravity kicks in. It has nothing to do with damage
I have no data to explain it but I, too, have the Slate as my go to buckshot-shotgun since its introduction to the game. I like the Crown&King with Slugs but with Buckshot the Slate is the only shotgun that feels kiiinda reliable. It's not perfect and it has let me down often enough, but no nearly as much as the others.
The new update added recoil to shotguns. The Crown kicks like a mule and messes up your view. You can't spam it like in old Hunt unless you want your whole screen to shake. The new Avtomat is more manageable, for reference. Specter and Rival have low recoil with repeat shot-which imo makes the now top meta shotguns. Slate and Terminus have some recoil but not as much as Crown, so spam is somewhat manageable. But not something one should rely on; hence why accuracy, field of view and repeat shot are more important.
Uuhh..uuhh...i love you UwU i havent played suotguns much yet in new patch but they look promising in shooting range, cant wait to check it. Overall im blown away by the bew patch. *Insert obligatory whiney UI comment here*
I sadly feel like it does, not sure if intended but before penny would give me those CRAZY long range 1tap and now it barely 1taps within buckshot range
idk pal check out my recently uploaded vid where I play terminus levering pennyshot. I don't show it in vid but a lot of times after winning a 1v1 I check what the enemy had, and they all have buckshot romero or whatever, buckshot terminus. I just think to myself ''shoulda brought pennyshot pal''. I've even had a moment where I kill up close avtomat with pennyshot levering terminus. Didn't even bother taking that garbo gun. Pennyshot levering terminus is life. Alternative option: Slate. Not sure about best bullet type but buckshot seemed ok on it.
Lol is this bad. The bomb lance - can melee & silently down every boss - can use separate ammo slots - so you can equip pvp steelbolts and pve bombs - you have a deadly melee attack with 1m range, in boss lair fights and stuff this can be even better than a shotgun. - it‘s relatively cheap So basically, bomb lance is a, at least b tier. Wouldn’t give it a s tier tho. Romero is also S, at least A tier. Cheap, deadly, and the reload time of 2 seconds is not that horrible if you think about other pumpguns which have also a shoot delay of a second like specter or terminus (w/o levering)
Romero in d tier is INSANE work
I gotta agree tbh. Generally at the range you're using shotguns then the Romero is your death on a first shot miss, which is insanely punishing compared to every other shotgun. And, y'know, everyone misses sometimes. I run shotguns most of the time and will never touch one.

It was great until slugs came along.

Putting the terminus without levering over the romero is mental. It's almost the same firerate, but much more inconsistent and weak

my favorite shotgun when I played was the caldwell. Romero was a 50/50 joker where you die if you miss and the others were to unreliant.

I will make another video for secondary weapons (single and medium slots) after twitch drops that is why I did not include medium slot version

Use an uppercut P on the side with an Alamo. Hit them with the uppercut then switch and hipfire the Alamo.

Do the individual pellets headshot at any range? Because that could potentially extend their range by proxy
No
no they dont, only slugs. Flechette needs to hit multiple pellets for that to happen
terminus iron eye + slugs can be nasty .

Alamo is huge pooopoo
