Description[ | ]
The Super Shotgun is a break-action double-barreled shotgun. It is one of the most powerful weapons in the game.
The Super Shotgun has a slow rate of fire (in fact, it is the slowest weapon in the game), but will kill most foes in 2 point-blank shots or less (only the bosses and Cowgirls can survive for more). Alongside the Crossbow, it is one of the two only weapons in Dusk that are actually reloaded after each shot.
The Super Shotgun uses the same Shell ammunition type as the normal Shotguns, thus it has the same capacity of 50 shells as the normal Shotguns, but (obviously) uses 2 Shells per shot. The shotgun weapons are the only weapon types in Dusk that share their ammo pool.
There is no alternate fire, only a nominal zoom function.
The Super Shotgun deals up to 600 damage spread across 20 pellets, with each pellet dealing 30 damage. In result, compared to the Shotgun, the Super Shotgun achieves quadruple damage per blast while using only twice the ammo.
In summary, the Super Shotgun is the strongest ranged weapon in the game, and overall its damage potential is only outpaced by the special charged thrust attack of the Sword. However, the Super Shotgun features a very wide spread pattern to its shots, far bigger than the one offered by the regular Shotguns. For this reason, whereas most of the arsenal stays equally reliable and effective at any distance, this weapon requires to be used practically within melee range or against large crowds of enemies to achieve optimal killing power, which is an especially precarious (yet rewarding) tactic against the melee-oriented or tougher enemies. Lastly, while the Super Shotgun offers the highest immediate damage amount, other weapons such as the Crossbow, the Mortar, and especially the Riveter can still prove to be more destructive against groups of enemies.
