Strategy
The shotgun is best used at close quarters to cripple Elite Bots and instantly kill enemies with low to high armor.

With even more damage-resistant armor being added to the store, players are able to withstand a bullet of this deadly weapon if proper precautions are taken. However, his health will be drastically reduced such that your next shot, if aimed correctly, will ensure his death. If used further away,the effectiveness of this weapon is reduced by 25%. Apart from damage, agility is also an advantage of this weapon, so use it to sneak up on enemies quickly and, if spotted, evade the bullets that come your way. It's poor range and accuracy forces you to go in for the kill, but do not underestimate this weapon. Just like it's relatives, it has the abilty to RIP APART enemies at close range.Although it's reloading takes time, you can shoot while reloading, allowing you to defend yourself if your enemies decide to take advantage of your reloading. Overall, it is a deadly weapon that should not be underestimated.
