What are Shotguns?

High Damage, High-Impact Close-Ranged Weapons

Shotguns
Shotguns are ranged weapons in Outer Worlds 2, designed to deal massive damage to targets that come to close to you. They are therefore, perfect in close-quarters scenarios and tight spaces, giving you the edge against enemies.

These guns can be further augmented with mods to increase their firepower but shotguns will still lose damage at further ranges. Make sure to equip yourself with another weapon for distance shooting to alleviate this problem.
