I think if you just open fire on the thing from a slight distance SOME of your bullets that fall between targets are going to get double-counted, right?

Yes, this is true. This is probably the best way to go if you are fighting Lvl 100+ Polavohra without solid Lightning armor. Their charge and stomp can be pretty brutal...

So that's a potential 10 shots all at once to a Polavohra/Kamatoze/Kog Nadd/Drua Gohra....very interesting. I may have to pick up a Shotgun again and give this a shot.

I recommend Shotguns for Polavohras, but I would stick with Grenade Launchers for everything else though. The reason for that is Polavohras are the only enemy from that list that isn’t vulnerable to throwback. They can only be flipped with launch. You may be able to get away with Shotguns on a Kog Nadd though. Kog Nadds and Polavohras move at about the same speed and don’t have any particularly lethal attacks. Kamatozes and Drua Gohras, on the other hand, have Dambarta and that triple Foie move respectably. Since you can get stun locked by both of those moves, getting up close and personal can be too dangerous. It’s better to keep them laid out with a Grenade Launcher so the fighters can get down to business without fear of reprisal. Besides, Grenade Launchers still have good DPS and SE3 as a bonus. Of course if you’re a GT none of this matters haha.

Shotguns are good for Polavohras because they are only vulnerable to technic damage.

For Drua Gohra, Kog Nadd and others, use melee weapons =/

i should be more specific,

SE per wep % and damage at that % per lvl of PA, meaning it doesn't tick of damage, but does the additional damage of the SE.

and the SE itself be it freeze( ice) or stun( ground) or megid( dark- wich would remove xtra life per hit with a chance of kill) it would hit and SE immediately

FG's with killer shot, plz admit that it is broken,

It's cracked, but not broken. Unless you are shooting at an enemy with really low STA (bots,) you can almost always kill it faster with opposite element on a high DPS weapons like Xbows or Shotguns. Don't forget that the PP cost is prohibitively high, even for fGs. There's a reason nobody spams it.

rofls

with melee SE, i think that it's a better idea to have the SE dependent on the weapon being used. Like the fuka freezing enemies, or jogiri with causing poison. Melee weapons are meant to be sticks you bash enemies with to do damage. a weapon having SE on it may be beneficial and more reason to hunt the weapon. having SE on everything for no reason would be the definition of broken.

Gunners have SE, techers have support and wide AoE attack techs, and hunters keep mobs busy to allow to help the other two. Every one has a niche and the game is about workign together, not having one class that does everything. If you still want to be a fighter and want SE, then become a fighgunner and spam poison traps.

Also if you look at the "Even more love for gunners thread", down to SE2 will be able to affect large monsters. So it may not be as much damage as SE4, but considdering FF does more damage per hit, applying SE2 should balance the damage that FG gets from SE4 + hit damage.
