Sooooo, in other words, you want a shotgun meta to return.
If snipers are touched more than they already have been, it's gonna to push a shotgun meta.
Look at 2.0's patch notes on snipers. Not to mention a few patches ago pushed out sniper changes as well. They've been nerfed twice since TTK.
There's a fine line when balance comes to play, snipers are on that line already. Reducing AA isn't going to solve ANY problems either. There's still several people that use snipers with low AA. I can go between a Hidden Hand 1k and a Longbow with Ambush and the difference is hardly noticeable while the AA values are very different.
You know what entirely solves the problem ? Buffing primaries.
Bring back pre nerf AR's, HC's, and PR's. However, of course people complained about primaries to the point where secondaries like shotguns and snipers are becoming extremely over used.
It's either we have strong primaries or we have strong secondaries.

No we'll be back to the fusion rifle meta of vanilla destiny. The worst in my opinion.

It can't encourage a shotgun meta though, IMO, because shotguns got neutered. Anyone who wants to shotgun has to sit in Titan melee range to shotgun someone. That means that quite clearly both specials would be on equal playing ground. If snipers got nerfed snipers would be on an even playing field. This is all theory and it would depend largely on the type of sniper nerf but still.

I can show you multiple clips within the last couple of days that shows shotguns are still EXTREMELY viable....

Were any of them not using universal remote?

I use UR, PC, and CT-D. Why does that even matter ? You're going to bring up the fact that other shotguns aren't viable ? If that's the case, matador, PC, and Felwinter ruled over all shotguns and if you weren't using them you were at an extreme disadvantage. Shotguns are not anywhere close to as bad as what people think. If you can close gaps between the person you're engaging, you will have no problem. You cannot use shotguns at 20+ feet of range anymore, it doesn't work like that. That is the only difference.
-
I never said anything about having those problems but at this point even using a long range archetype, which is the only type of shotgun you use, doesn't have the same range as blink strike shoulder charge or warlock melee, and with that being the case how can shotguns rule again if one class can double melee and stop them before they get the ohk.
