Minos |
Shotgun | Special | Overly slow with her shield, sadly, but the shield value is high | The beef-loving cowgirl from a very weird show. She has a shield, but it takes way too long to pop up before it's useful in most cases, as it only pops up with her reload cycle. On the other hand, it's a huge shield, but in many cases you're better off with other shield SGs. She's not the worst SG though I guess, so run her if you don't have anything better. |
LTLX7000 |
Shotgun | ★★★★★ | Competes with SAT8 for the best shotgun to use your True Core Mask on | OBEY. Made from a less-lethal shotgun meant to give police forces more options to put down people without killing them. In G&K's case, however, she certainly helps with takedowns. Incredibly good stats for a shotgun, good formation buffs, and her skill has the unique ability to cancel enemy buffs. These buffs include ENEMY SHIELDS (including Patroller shields) and stat buffs (including bullshit enemy evasion buffs). Her mechanics are unique, so she actually ignores normal knockback immunity. Oh, and her armor buff stacks are multiplicative. Unfortunately, the Minotaur's damage reduction is a weird thing that can't be removed, but regardless, you get so much utility from her. Even if you don't need her skill, her stats are just that good. If you don't have her, get her from a True Core Mask or something. She's just too useful in things like later Theater events. |
Mossberg M500 Mod |
Shotgun | ★★★★ | For if you want shields very badly and SAT8 isn't enough | She has Python-like activation requirements to pop open free shields, which can be useful for some situations. YMMV overall. |
Liberator |
Shotgun | ★★★★ | Managed to forget the most important part of being a shotgun | 21 Armour and her HP isnt high enough to make up for it at a mere 231 per dummy link (compare 275 for SPAS-12!). Her skill doesn't help her tank, and while her skill kinda helps a little for mass knockback, her ammo count is awful, so you can't rely on it. She's better than nothing, but you already get SPAS-12 for free. |
CAWS |
Shotgun | ★★★★★ | Gimmicky; base stats are cool. | G&K's equal opportunity things means even penguins are accepted, I guess. She has a finnicky, slow, and generally not reliable shield. On the other hand, her gimmick relies on having shields. She relies quite heavily on outside shields if you want to use her gimmick, so stuff like SAT8 and LWMMG mod will come in handy if you want to do so. However, while she has good armour, her HP is the worst of the 5 star shotguns, and she doesn't have particularly good tanking gimmicks. She's usable, but probably wont be your first choice unless you want to use her gimmick that badly for whatever fucking reason |
DP-12 |
Shotgun | ★★★★★ | Pretty good defensive/utility shotgun | Even if she sucked, most of you degens would go after her anyway. Thankfully, she's actually pretty good. Not quite in the same vein as SAT8, as she only shields herself, but the damage reduction effect allows her and allies to tank a bit harder against shots that exceed her armour value, and yes, that applies to shots that ignore armour outright. So basically if she's on the forward center, then positions 4, 5, and 6 benefit from the DR, and so on. Because of her passive and the 3 second ICD on her skill, she actually has really good uptime overall (similar to but slightly worse than SAT8), and yes, she can be made to pop her shield more often via shooting faster and going into reload faster (though this can produce an odd gap in uptime past the 13s mark). |
Six12 |
Shotgun | ★★★ | It's a free shotgun I guess? | ....Serviceable if you have a complete lack of shotguns. Seriously, just pick up a SAT8 next time an event rolls around. |
Triela |
Shotgun | Special | Meme Shotgun Goes Stab | On one hand, she's actually not bad in melee. On the other, she suffers from dumb mechanics (like not being able to switch to melee while reloading, which WOULD HAVE BEEN REALLY NICE). She's not terrible at the role of "melee shotgun" (she's actually quite good at it), but the number of situations where you'd actually want a melee shotgun are quite limited. |
Winchester M1897 Trench Model |
Shotgun | ★★★ | Serviceable, but nowhere as good as her Rep says she is | I want to say good things about this doll. I really do. It's an iconic shotgun with a hella rep and even got accused of being a warcrime. The rep is exaggerated, but not entirely undeserved. Her design is... blah. Trench Broom apparently = shitty maid. But are her stats ok? ...Eh, they're alright. Like the real thing they're serviceable. The tiles are passable (not great, but its 50% acc on a shotgun which helps some MGs) and she has passable HP. Her armour is a little low due to her 3 star nature, at 21. Not the worst thing ever, but far far from your first choice. Mae would probably not take her into battle. |
Winchester Model 1887 Shotgun |
Shotgun | ★★★★★ | Usable | Aka M1887. She's a shotgun, so she will do shotgun things shotgun-y (read: facetank with her armour), but is not particularly impressive at it. Her stats are okay (but worse than most other 5* shotguns), her tile buffs are the weakest of all 5* shotties (and most 4*!)… and her skill is downright useless, because it has a ridiculously long 15 second cooldown and if you can use it appropriately, well shotguns aren't what you want to use for that fight. As far as free SGs are concerned, a minor upgrade over 97S if you don't consider 97s's mod. |
Elphelt |
Shotgun | Special | Usable | She has good stats. But shotgun powercreep is real. Also if you have her, you've been playing a long time. Why don't you have a better shotgun? Huh? Waifu? No, she's shit. Get over it. On top of that she has a nuke skill that... honestly doesnt usually come up, but when it does, it's pretty much the biggest nuke on a shotgun you get (2 hits for 8x vs primary, 12x area around primary). As a bonus, if the first shot kills the primary, the secondary BOOM changes targets (uses standard grenade targeting). Note that due to her ammo and reload speeds, if you want to fire the first nuke immediately, you will likely need to reload cancel her. |
Daewoo USAS-12 |
Shotgun | ★★★★ | Usable | Unlike the other shotguns, she's focused on firepower instead, with her skill basically making her go DAKKADAKKADAKKA. You would want an Acc scope on her so she can actually hit anything. Sometimes used in 1SG/1HG/3MG formations to provide MAXIMUM FIREPOWER. Tiles are a little eh for that though. Armour is average. |
FABARM SAT-8 |
Shotgun | ★★★★★ | Usable | She's still usable and good enough to deal with older content just fine, but the new shotguns currently available just blow her out of the water so hard. Sad day to be a pizzalion. That skill happens to be giving your entire front row a 35HP shield, that takes armour into account first. It also has 5/8 uptime. Basically, if your SGs took scratch damage before? They should take literally nil now, unless its a really major fight or you were silly enough to go fight anti-armour enemies. |
KS-23 |
Shotgun | ★★★ | Usable | AKA, SHARK-CHAN. Shitty aura shape, workable buff. Has surprisingly high HP for a 3 star shotty, and surprisingly ok damage, otherwise average tanking ability. With the release of better SGs, you'll want better if you can, but all shotguns are at least usable if you lack anything better. Her unique makes her slightly better offensively, but still far away from being actually good at it, and 90% of the time you want your shotguns to tank. |
TsKIB RMB-93 |
Shotgun | ★★★ | Usable has good mod. | A really shitty aura, average armor for a shotty. Prolly the worst shotgun currently available on EN except shotguns are wanted for their tanking ability or else you'd have picked literally anything else. With the release of SAT8 & company, she's even less useful, but hey, if you don't have anything else, she'll still do Her mod, which makes her not dogshit, can be found in this article |
