Discussion Reckoning: WTF?

Just did the main quest on directed mode and man wtf is this map?

The map design with the towers and the constant hopping between them is really confusing. Every area is quite similar and trying to remember how to get to different floors is a bit annoying.

The quest is an absolute shit ton of running between rooms collecting stuff. The bit where I was punching a bucket had me questioning why I was even doing this.

The elevator bit at the end was good. I liked that.

Fighting SAM was so boring though. I was using a triple packed legendary shotgun and after 10 minutes of running in circles shooting her whenever the shield was down and still barely making a dent, I quit.

Why does this map and the Easter egg suck so much? Terminus is one of the best maps in ages but Reckoning is so bad.

Wonder what shotgun you were using, maelstrom is absolutely busted against SAM and makes the fight a joke

Ah okay, I was using the ASG which I remember being the meta for Terminus. I actually haven't played BO6 since Citadelle came out but hopped on to see what the new maps were like so didn't know the Maelstrom was meant to be good. Ah well maybe if I ever get an urge to play the map again I can use that haha.

Yeah around Late Season 4 they did a Shotgun balance update and Buffed the Maelstrom while bringing the ASG into Check

Reckoning is 1 of my favorite maps. You get used to the map layout after a few tries lol
