I support a Scimitar buff. I love how it feels and enjoy using it on my asari vanguard on silver, but without ammo powers it's like tickling the enemy with a feather on gold, and that's with headshots at point blank after a charge.

I don't think it should be super powerful since it's just an uncommon, but imo it should at least do the job it was intended for better than it does.

Make it have at least 45% of the Piranha's DPS at X

I can relate OP! This was one of my favorite guns also. I got experienced very similar feelings when I first got it. Same goes for the locust.

I almost tried the Scimitar but then realized I only have it at Rank I while all my other shotguns are more than that (my Piranha is at Rank II).

yes.
Yes I have.
And it still fires slower than the Piranha without ROF bonuses.

The scimitar blows, simple as.
Tried it yesterday for the shotgun challenge on silver and felt like facepalming several times. It feels about as powerful as a slap in the face.

Chris said he's advocating a Scimitar buff in the office place, since it's his favorite shotgun. Sission Muccess?

To get shotgun mastery I just solo'd a few bronze matches with the Scimitar (which I hadn't used since the demo) Overall I really like the feel of the gun, I just wish it was more effective on higher difficulties.

This is a terrible gun. I wonder of it's any better in ME2.

It was godlike in ME2. 
Suited Vanguards Perfectly, and was just overall a Monster.

Never really used shotguns in ME2. I do miss the Phalanx's cool blue laster pointer though.

IMO in ME2, the standard shotguns (Katana, Scimitar, Eviscerator and Geth Plasma Shotugn) were fairly balanced.

Makes what happened to the Scimitar in ME3 really sad ...

I really hope they buff it good (along with a few other shottys) and lower its weight a bit as well ...

After seeing them buff the disciple I could see a scimitar buff in the future. I really like the scimitar and would love a buff for it.

Overall the weapon balance was good in ME2, with a couple of exceptions.  Like Mattock under time dilation, or possibly Incisor on squad members.

But all in all you could make a case for any gun.  Largely people would ignore some of the starter weapons, and assume that after they maxed the upgrades that the higher tier were so much better.   They were largely different, not vastly superior.  SMG's were a good example of this.  Shuriken was maligned by many, but it is an excellent weapon in ME2, esepcially when it gets a couple upgrades.  You just have to use it in the correct role.

ME3 has a more difficult task though, so it is understandable that the weapon balance isn't as good.  There are a whole lot more weapons to balance.

I think the Scimitar, Katana, and Avenger could all use a good 15% damage buff, and I think both the Katana and Scimitar could use a weight reduction as well.
