Yeah, well BB can afford to use iron cartridges and still deal more damage than bow or musket lmao. Musket really cannot “afford” to choose anything lower than oric cartridges unless you want to hit like a wet noodle?
BB at 500 GS has more thrust damage than a 625 Musket if you check the stats lmao
So the delta between Starmetal at 1.15 and Ori at 1.20 is the difference between solid damage and a wet noodle? I said nothing about the free ammo in the comment you replied to.
They should just remove ammo, period. It has a place in a survival game, but that’s not New World anymore.
If ammo has to stay, it should be a one-off craft that has durability, so you can repair it instead of needing to buy more ammo.
I’m saying Blunderbuss hits way harder than Bow or Musket regardless of ammo usage. It’s an overtuned weapon that’s capable of killing people in literally 2 shots (1 azoth shrapnel blast and 1 left click after)
Maybe - if you’re 50 con with no resists (crit resists don’t matter since BB’s crit modifier if so low) and wearing light…and even then, I call BS. Even if all 9 pellets from Blast hit you in the face, the bomb goes off in your face, and the left click all hits you in the face you’re not being 2-shotted.
I actually have done something like this to a 50 con musket. I used (venturing) claw shot, shrapnel blast, and a left click. I did have keenly empower activated as well
And that’s a 3-shot combo not a Blast/left click. 
Yes, it’s a potent weapon against glass cannons…and they were due for one to arrive on the scene that didn’t require the glass cannon to be in the middle of the death ball.
It’s an assassin weapon that plays like it was specifically made to counter those builds (spec’d to do that) in PvP.
2-3 Shot combo, killing players with 10k-12k hp (not glasscannon) and my BB is 600GS not even 625 (while running 300 str 100 int 100 con)
To be fair, claw shot itself does very little damage I just use it to proc an empower. Totally agree about glass cannons needing a counter though. The amount of salt that people get in game and on here for using the BB really speaks to the hubris of a lot of the more kiting-inclined players.
I would love to see a video of you doing the 2-shot kills you claim on anyone at 10k. Anyone.
Not 3, just the Blast + Left Click you claim took someone from 10k to 0.
I agree. Since February 12th
People’s argument against getting rid of ammo is that it’s used to level engineering. And I tell you hoo-wOt.
I didn’t make any arrows levelling engineering to 200 and I’m 595-600. Lol
2-3 shots depending on whether they have full resil yes, fyi they CAN get 2-shotted if they have trash gear so you can’t really say it’s not possible. And in OPR there is always that one player that has either no resil or is just wearing some random gear he bought from TP
resil, with BB’s horrid crit modifier, isn’t going to make a critical difference but really, I just want to see you 2-shotting them.
I’ll get you clips in a bit 
Looking forward to it! Even with Brash, Vorpal, and Enchanted on Last Argument and 330 STR I can’t replicate what you’re claiming.
From the clip alone Azoth shrapnel blast has dealt 5,998 damage and an additional 2,136 6-pellet headshot. That’s about 8k HP down in 2 hits with a 600GS blunderbuss (without diamond bonuses being active due to my hp not being full) And the weapon not even using “elemental gems” yet
I would advise you to look into putting stats on INT as well because BB is a split-damage weapon
If you’re assuming you should deal “that much” damage with just 300 strength you’ve very little experience when it comes to split-damage weapons. Just as how a 300 dex no int musket would probably deal 1k per shot white hits lol
Hopefully you can replicate it now 
While we’re at it make healing potions infinite. Mana pots…food. Hell just make it all infinite. Why not?
If you don’t want to pay for or craft your own bonus damage don’t do bonus damage. It’s really simple.
Sure bro, mages and bruisers dont need to pay thousands of gold to deal “decent” damage lmao
