Plasma Shotgun

''"The perfect marriage between between a shotgun and an energy-based weapon." ''- User description about Plasma Shotgun.

The Plasma Shotgun is a weapon introduced in the Ghostbusters Event. This gun has 4 ammo and costs. Many players says that its too expensive. Its better to buy Double Barrel Shotgun.

Similar to the Automatic Shotgun, this weapon leaves bullet holes for a few seconds when they hit an object like a wall. This weapon is the third weapon that can do so.

Strategy
Among all the energy weapons, this weapon seems to be the best if used effectively. The Plasma Shotgun deals extraordinary Damage in medium to close range. However, it deals nearly no Damage in long range when the crosshairs are red. The Plasma Shotgun has a small amount of ammo, meaning that it can easily be emptied very quickly due to its automatic firing function. Use 21% Agility for maximum effect. Get as close as you can because of its low Damage output at long range. The Plasma Shotgun is also a powerful energy weapon to take down the Ghost and the Slimer. It also does two times (2x) the Damage to the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man during the Ghostbusters 30th Event.
