Combat Shotgun/Chapter 6

Functionality[]

The Combat Shotgun is a fully automatic shotgun, with a fast fire rate and tight spread. It is designed for longer ranged engagements than other shotguns, with its maximum damage taking longer to fall-off. The Combat Shotgun reloads 2 shells at a time.

The Combat Shotgun is a Hitscan weapon that fires a spread of 10 pellets when both aiming down sights and hipfiring. Aiming down sights tightens the spread of pellets.

Damage falloff:

• Damage falloff begins at 13 meters (2.6 tiles).
• Damage steadily decreases down to 68% of its maximum at 20 meters (4 tiles).
• Damage decreases down to 52% of its maximum at 30 meters (6 tiles)
• It deals damage until 60 meters (12 tiles).

Strategy Guide[]

	This section outlines a strategy.
	Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic.

• The Combat Shotgun comes prefixed with a Suppressor and Vertical Foregrip, making it a very rewarding shotgun for accurate and stealthy players, as it allows you to hit higher damage shots at longer ranges than average with a shotgun, while also staying off of enemy players compasses.
• The Combat Shotgun is unique in that it reloads 2 shells at a time, making this gun very good for sticky situations in which you need to reload in a close-range fight, as you can reload 2 shots quickly, and then rapidly fire them at an opponent back to back. This is best paired with a fast firing weapon such as the Striker AR or Machine SMG to finish off said opponent.

Counters[]

• The Combat Shotgun, in exchange for it's tight spread and fast fire rate, has a lower than average damage per shot compared to the rest of the Shotgun category. Using a Shotgun with a higher damage or even faster fire rate, such as the Gatekeeper Shotgun or Thunder Shotgun can be advantageous against an opponent with a Combat Shotgun.

Weapon ID[]
