I have been playing for many years and my main task now is not to get bored, so I try to use unusuall weapon+attachments combination. For example shotgun+slug ammo+4x scope. It is the great combo if you hit the head And it can be used at much greater distances than no-slug shotguns. For VS I use Thanatos but all the shotguns have afwul bullet drop and sway. Has anyone tried the same weird combos ? Share your user experience on live servers (not VR) !!! What shotgun do you recommend as the most accurate? Any faction specific or NS models (baron for example) are welcome !
Thanatos sniper shotty used to be very popular. Back when it still had 3x headshot multiplier. I remember swarms of my beloved VS light assault going over walls with Sniper Shotty. I can still taste the salt from the tears of the NC and TR slain. Eventually the headshot multiplier was nerfed (to 1.5x i think), and people started dropping turrets to hit us at the walls. And so the great Sniper Shotty was killed off. I'm pretty sure I got my first 160 kills with the Thanatos by doing this. Good times
If you're going to use a pump-action stick to the Gen 1 variants. No difference in damage for slugs and the Gen 1 shotties fire faster. VS slugs also used to have no bullet drop which was another reason Thanatos was so popular. Slugs probably got hit a little too hard with the nerf bat to be honest.
