Tips

Burst2

Burst Shotgun in action.

  • A +5 shotgun at medium range (if you're lucky) can one-shot a target.
  • Shotguns and Revolvers have knockback effect if the majority of bullets fired connect. This is sometimes incredibly useful on defense.
  • The knockback mentioned above is also particularly frustrating for Chasers when they are under fire from many directions at once.
  • Burst Shotgun may be effectively used to spray at fairly distant targets with very little health to finish the target off.
