I feel like sidearms are supposed to be... well, sidearms (Destiny)

And for 'close encounters' how do you not get rocked with a shotgun and / or fast charging FRs? And could you not also simultaneously rock your opponent using either?

I don't get rocked when they miss. Thing is, to make them miss, I usually have to move in a way aiming with low RoF guns is pretty damn hard. Any frame I spend lining up a shot is a frame I'm being predictable. That's when forgiving guns favor me, because I can afford to be unpredictable.

Also, when lag hits hard, forgiving guns are better for almost the exact same reason.

EDIT: I don't use Vestian in the Crucible, mind you, but I do use high-RoF shotguns and Bad Juju.
