Black__Star Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 That isn't the Phage? I'm thinking about forma-ing a shotgun a few times, I'm just not sure which one would be best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bejuizb Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Tigris. Its my favourite. And people say that it sucks because they don't like a challenge. Mod it right and all you will ever need are 2 shots to kill an entire room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black__Star Posted April 19, 2014 Author Share Posted April 19, 2014 I have the Strun Wraith if that makes any difference. I wasn't sure about the Tigris, since it's mostly slashing. Unless that's okay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
immolator1001 Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 (edited) Boar Prime has strictly the highest dps. Bar only the phage. Edited April 19, 2014 by immolator1001 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utarious Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Highest DPS: Boar Prime Best Shotgun: In my opinion, Strun Wraith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)KalGerion_Beast Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Ehh... slashing is alright for some (corpus and infested) and less than ideal for others (grineer and corrupted), but elemental damage is where the bulk of damage is located (for me its around 80%). So while 20% of your damage to that napalm may be reduced to 50% effectiveness, it really doesn't matter when the other 80% damage gets a 75% damage buff (if using radiation).

Sixty5 Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Tigris. The thing hits like a truck full of lead. It will mess up anything you shoot it at. The Two-shot firing thing takes a bit of getting used to, but learn it and it will wreck everything. Corrosive/ice on a slash weapon is also an amazing combo.

taiiat Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Physical Spreads mean nothing, just Physical Total. all Physical Damage exists for is to boost your Elementals. BoarP cannot be touched for BurstDPS though, due to it's asinine RoF. it's potential Damage, though. i'd still much rather use other Shotguns though. Sobek, Drakgoon, and SWraith once in a while if i'm feeling lazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItPutsTheLotion Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Strun Wraith is the Best in my opinion. The Boar Prime runs out of ammo too quickly. Phage is annoying to focus (personal opinion) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laecerelius Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 I think they all actually have their pros and cons. I've heard great things about all of the shotguns so unfortunately you'll probably have to check them all out and see which one you like the most.

Dualstar Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 (edited) The Brakk. Obviously. Though if you want a high-DPS primary shotgun thats not the Phage, then Boar Prime is the only way to go. Good luck finding Shotgun Spazz. Edited April 19, 2014 by Dualstar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dualstar Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Brakk is not a shotgun lol Oh its a shotgun by this games standards. It just happens to use pistol ammo, pistol mods, and be in the secondary slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though if you want a high-DPS primary shotgun thats not the Phage, then Boar Prime is the only way to go. Good luck finding Shotgun Spazz. You're better off with just using accelerated blast. i tried Shotgun Spazz and it kicks like a horse and when it starts to recoil up the pellet count drops to 2- 3 pellets (i dunno if this is a bug). Also, accelerated blast has puncture damage as well and uses the same mod capacity as shot spazz at max rank. that +60% firerate will do wonders for your boar prime, +90% IMO is just wasting a ton of lead on the walls rather than on the enemy. If you combine accelerate blast and shot spazz you'll get this soma hybrid shotgun that peppers anything to powder but you have to aim at your feet because of that damn kick.

TrashSpider Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 I'm going to say SW, but since its an exclusive, I'll go with Boar prime or the Tigris *be probably on par with or even higher if it wasn't for that god awful reload. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zaik_Torek Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Probably the akbronco prime to be honest, but for actual shotgun shotguns probably strun wraith? It's the only one I could ever stand to use, shotgun mods are so terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzaku4489 Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 I've always loved the Hek... It seems I'm alone, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DPS for me isn't everything to a weapon and the hek is my fav shotgun until i got the Boar Pr. The Hek has some Sweeeeet shotgun music to it.

Sebastianx Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Strun Wraith is the Best in my opinion. The Boar Prime runs out of ammo too quickly.

(PSN)Lord_Gremlin Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Tigris. Actually, strictly DPS-wise Boar Prime is best, but it comes at a cost. So Tigris it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
