MoonicusMaximus Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 BUT IF YOU HAVE TO MOD A WEAPON TO MAKE IT GOOD IT'S ACTUALLY TERRIBLE. No but seriously, just level it up enough to start throwing damage mods on it. It pays for itself from that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatalis92 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I just got the HEK shotgun today and I am shooting at the Grineer and when I shoot at their heads all of my shells do 10 damage each (8-9 damage on their armor).(147.0 damage maximum?)........-takes out pistol and does 29 damage each shot to the head- What??? -does 79 damage critical with my Kraken- okay somethings wrong here... Is the best shotgun of the game hands down ( 4 ammo per clip, but you have a kill secured ), take the time to upgrade the mods and level it up. You wont regret the Hek for sure!

SlyBoots Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) uh, if that's unmodded you're looking at 10 * 7 (pellets) which is still more than 29 in my book... but i guess it was just a matter of time until we got a "hek doesn't deal enough damage" thread...

Altale Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I'm guessing you played in an online match, without hosting, because you don't get all the damage numbers popping up if you don't host a match. Play a match solo and you'll see all the crazy numbers flying around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamefreak9149 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 That shotgun is a great gun once you level it up. You can nearly snipe mobs across the map with some practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soathe Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 TBH, I didn't find the Hek to be amazing, until I found and put 'Hells Chamber' into it. Multishot works different for shotguns than they do rifles. It's a mod that's pretty much needed in any shotgun to make it worth while imo.

VieuxPappy Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 lol OP does not know what he's talking about. This is currently the BEST gun (can easily snipe AND one-shoot everything upclose and from afar). It pretty much simply outperforms every other guns that currently exists in warframe. If this weapon needs something, it would need a nerf imo. I'm bored whenever I use it :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

modded Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I just maxed out my strun. 100% multishot 60% damage 60% rof + a bunch of elementals + mag capacity. 10 rounds and OHK grunts and can take down heavies in 2-3 shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CosyPigeon Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Uh, Hek is one of the best primary weapons in the game. Op is crazey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dredj Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 What he's saying is true, he said he got the gun today, so it's low level and unmodded, which means it's a terrible and lacklustre weapon, like all the Shotguns until heavily modded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VieuxPappy Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 if you're crying over Hek (which you should not be), go try the grakata xD you'll see what underpowered is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

f3llyn Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) My hek does well over 700 damage a shot. Put some mods on that bad boy and you'll get there one day. Edited April 24, 2013 by f3llyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zagibu Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 You probably tried Grineer without AP mod. Put lowest level AP mod on and try again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flaicher Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 My hek does well over 700 damage a shot. Put some mods on that bad boy and you'll get there one day. Put enough mods on it and you wont be able to count all the numbers on screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qb3rt Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 (edited) (Hek) Is the best shotgun of the game hands down ( 4 ammo per clip, but you have a kill secured ), take the time to upgrade the mods and level it up. You wont regret the Hek for sure! I prefer the Strun actually, and above every other primary as well. Well modded Strun one-shots pretty much everything, the spread of it's cone spray is WAY over-exaggerated; I've used it plenty to snipe Grineer heads ducking behind cover at medium range! Hek does an unnoticable 5% more base damage ... yet the Strun has 5% higher base crit rate. Also, a max modded Hek clip size = 6 vs. 10 for the Strun.The Hek has slightly better accuracy at range and reloads quicker, but it only reloads 30% quicker while the Strun needs reloading 40% less often. Also Strun's polarity slot gives it an effective 5 more mod points. You probably tried Grineer without AP mod. Put lowest level AP mod on and try again. Can't be repeated enough. Using a shottie vs. Grineer with/without AP mods is night and day. Those 10s will suddenly turn into 50s Edited April 24, 2013 by Qb3rt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
