The Assault Shotgun is a Primary weapon introduced in the 12.0.0 update.

Appearance

It has some similarities to a sawed-off shotgun. However, the barrels are silver and have 3 light green stripes at each barrel, a green and brown part between both barrels, a brown grip, a white trigger and a silver and green shoulder stock.

Strategy

Tips

• Use at close range, since it's a shotgun.
• Aim for the head to maximize the damage.
• It has a decent capacity, but it's best rather burst firing in order to save capacity.
• Do not use this at long range.
• Consider its mobility. It has a good mobility, but it is rather best wielding a weapon with a better mobility like the Carrot Sword.
• Use this in close ranged maps like Pool Party.
• This weapon has the ability to kill enemy players in 2 shots (head).

Counters

• Play in long ranged maps often.
• Simply move and strafe to dodge the bullets.
• Pickoff its users from long ranges.
• Jump and move in random patterns. If you do this, the enemy can't really get a clear shot nor aim perfect at you. This can save you from being hit by a headshot.

Supported Maps

Any close ranged map.

Weapon Setups

Equip a long ranged weapon like the Prototype.

• (For levels: 12) This is (was, this is because of it being nerfed in the recent updates) one of the most powerful shotguns in the game, having high damage and a decent fire rate with a relatively good capacity, any shotgun-based player can easily kill anything. However, since this is limited to short range combat, equip a good medium-long ranged weapon. (e.g.: Mercenary paired with a Sniper, such as the Laser Crossbow).

Trivia

• This weapon is based on both the Shotgun from Quake 3 Arena and the Scattergun in Team Fortress 2.
• This could possibly be a hybrid of the Heavy Shotgun and the Dual Shotguns.
