From the early days, Warzone has had it\u2019s fair share of issues with broken weapons, pieces of equipment, and so on. No one will be forgetting the DMR or Mac-10 days of Verdansk in a hurry \u2013 especially as Urzkistan has had its own run-in with a DMR-esque weapon. However, that hasn\u2019t been the only one reeking havoc on the new Warzone map. Players have forced the devs to roll out an emergency fix for the \u201cbusted\u201d TYR Snakeshot pistols, but they\u2019ve got nothing on the Lockwood 300. The shotgun \u2013 specifically the Doom bundle version of it \u2013 ran absolute roughshod over the final days of Al-Mazrah, prompting some players to quit the battle royale until it was nerfed. Well, despite being hit with changes a few weeks ago, the MW2 beast is back in a big way. Lockwood 300 is wrecking Warzone again A number of Warzone gurus, including ModernWarzone and WhosImmortal, have highlighted the Lockwood again over recent days, noting that it is \u201cbetter than ever\u201d in Modern Warfare 3. And even though there has been some concern about the power of MW2 weapons, you don\u2019t have to alter the setup for the Lockwood too much from the previous game. As, yes, the Dual Trigger is the key component to making it so powerful. \u201cThis thing dominates any close-range gunfight right now \u2013 if you\u2019re late game and you run into this, you\u2019re going to be spectating in the Gulag, simple as that,\u201d WhosImmortal said. \u201cDefinitely needs a nerf, but it is the newest one-shot gun out there right now. Muzzle: XTen V1.3 Choke &#8211; Barrel: Matuzek 812 Barrel &#8211; Laser: VLK LZR 7mw &#8211; Stock: Heist Stock Mod &#8211; Trigger Action: Maelstrom Dual Trigger &#8211; Given how many headaches the Lockwood caused last time, some players have naturally called for it to be nerfed again. \u201cGet it out of here,\u201d tweeted one player. As powerful as the shotgun is, there is a balance to using it. The Dual Trigger means that once you shoot, you\u2019re going to be reloading instantly, so miss your shot and you\u2019ll be a sitting duck. But, hit it, and you might just get a loud message over proximity chat. It\u2019s also unclear just how the Lockwood has gotten back to it\u2019s old self. Some players have speculated that TYR nerf has caused a knock-on effect for the shotgun, but that\u2019s unclear. Hopefully the devs iron things out sooner rather than later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Warzone\u2019s Doom shotgun is \u201cbetter than ever\u201d as nerf apparently reverted ActivisionOne of Warzone\u2019s most broken weapons is back and causing havoc across the battle royale, as the one-shot Lockwood 300 is \u201coverpowered\u201d yet again.
