    Best Shotgun :D - Makes shotguns actually usable! - Opinions? (video)

    https://youtu.be/MOQpUVW_wQU

    Hey, guys! I honestly believe I finally found a shotgun that's worth using! It's a solid weapon, but remember that my low DPS might taint its true power. Just wait until a buff, it will be a beast! Either way, I hope this helps you have some shotgun fun!

    The shotgun M8 is actually probably the best. It hits like a cannon

    I'd take the SASG-12 any day. Have you tried it? Choke is so tight it essentially extends the optimal range.

    I got the 204 BP for this after the reset. Got one with armor distruciton accuracy and stability. Don't t hink stability really helps shotguns, but the accuracy is what is really making the shot group so tight. The lower your accuracy with shotgun, the wider the bullet spread.

    Even tho its 204, and I got nearly the max damage roll possible, it still lacks in power against the Midas I also keep around. Gonna have to keep rolling until I get one with Accuracy and 2 useful talents.

    This thread reminded me of something that bugs me...Why don't shotguns get barrel mods?

    It's weird. It's not a concession to realism.

    It just means that player shotguns have 8% less critical hit chance than other weapon types.

    Barrel mods would be nice

    The SASG-12 is actually one of the worst shotguns because it has the lowest base damage, poor damage scaling, and is actually has a longer 'short load'.... the Super90 is actually better in almost every way. The only redeeming factor of the shotgun is the fact that it is magazine loaded which means that it benefits from having Extended Magazine mods attached, as with the tube loaded shotguns - adding extended magazine makes the reload longer.
