Prove me wrong.

For real though the fact that you can instantly switch and shoot with barely any delay makes killing scouts much easier. There's as far as I'm aware no loss of damage in close range vs the shotgun either.

Ok I was misinformed, there's a 20% reduced damage. But still shooting a scout with a decent rocket and following it up with a quick shot should kill it if you hit your shots. Quickly did a test with it just for damage numbers and they're still pretty good imo. Doing around 40 medium range and close range doing up to 107

The increase of pellets make up for the reduced damage in close range. The only time it isn't effective is at long range but you shouldn't be using a shotgun at long range anyways. And with the weapon deploying 50% faster I'd say it's much more reliable than the shotgun when it comes to cleaning up enemies that are near you.

due to the aids spread literally anything but point-blank probably asides from shooting like a heavy does less damage.
either way rocket firing time = 0.8
and to shoot with the panic attack and change back to the rocket launcher is 0.75 (you see what i'm getting at)

shotgun is just more useful though lol

i just tested it and if you stop shooting for the smallest amount of time there's no successive accuracy penalty. how dont they think of these exploits

pretty sure panic attack does more damage at super long range from 3 to 4 or 5 damage because you hit with 2 pellets rather than 1.

Something I think is worth noting is that as a soldier you can now shoot off a rocket and a panic attack shotgun before a scout can shoot 2 scatter gun shots and as you just stated can shoot rockets at a shorter time interval as well.. Before you weren't able to do this even with shotgun. Many people would complain about not being able to do enough damage because you wouldn't be able to fire faster than the scout. I don't know how much of an advantage this is though.
