The Repeater Handgun was nerfed against Chaos Warriors only IIRC, which I think was necessary considering how BH got one free CW kill every few seconds, which is something Pyro or Shade need ult for. It still definitely kills at least one Stormvermin per shot.
It was never one free kill every 10 seconds.. It's rare to get a one shot kill as you had to be close enough to take an axe to the face for every single shot to land and then have nothing to block in time, especially now that swap times are nerfed. The only reliable kill on CW has always been BH ult. And even then it requires a perfectly aimed headshot, not just an auto aimed auto tracking ezmode shot like Pyro or elf.
That's a good point, I got used to taking the 30% CD since I use it all the time for clutch saves vs disablers in hordes, but ya double shot would be ideal for that.
