Some even want Respawn to nerf them already. For the longest time, Apex Legends players looked at the Mozambique with pure disdain. The small shotgun wouldn\u2019t even be picked up by some fans, even if they had no other options. Respawn has played into this at times, creating an April Fool\u2019s mode around the Mozam being all-powerful. However, they took things up a few levels in Season 22. Now, the shotgun is able to be dual-wielded, allowing players to get off rapid-fire shots at close range. Naturally, many players have gravitated towards the brand-new feature, especially in competitive games. With ALGS Year 4 Split 2 getting underway, the Akimbo shotguns have started dominating, and players aren\u2019t happy. The stats from day one of competitive play showed that the dual-wield Mozambique registered over 95,000 in damage. That is more than 14,000 more damage than the second-place Hemlok AR. \u201cGet the mozams nerfed please,\u201d one fan said. \u201cNo skill expression, just hold down the mouse or trigger and profit. At least take away the automatic and hammers.\u201d Some players harped on the fact that you can use Hammerpoint rounds with the Akimbo mod too, calling it \u201cnot fair\u201d right now. \u201cAkimbo is fine, hammerpoint on top of Akimbo isn\u2019t. You gotta choose one or the other,\u201d one said. \u201cI feel bad for the pros. They have to use it because it\u2019s so much more powerful than anything. Respawn should be embarrassed,\u201d commented another. \u201cI do not understand the thought process of Akimbo, it\u2019s a nice idea but they\u2019ve implemented it in the worst way possible,\u201d another weighed in. With the Akimbo weapons only being added at the start of the new season, it\u2019ll be a while before any serious changes are made. Yet, players are clearly annoyed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends players call for akimbo Mozambique nerf as \u2018unfair\u2019 guns dominate ALGS Respawn\/EAThe dual-wield Mozambique shotguns have started dominating in ALGS and Apex Legends players have had enough.
