| Do people care about scopes on their shotguns, im finding very similar shotguns, often with minor differences but 1 has a scope, for example:
SG1200 Hunters Striker Damage: 201x7 Accuracy: 72.9 Fire Rate: 0.5 Clip size: 12 Zoom 3.6x
ZPR31 Hunters Striker Damage: 212x7 Accuracy: 72.9 Fire rate: 0.7 Clip Size: 6 Zoom: N/A +150% melee damage
As you can see, they are extremely similar and at the same time very very different, should i view this as 2 seperate shotguns or should i take 1 value over the other, IE Scope > Melee damage, Clip size > fire rate, etc etc.
How do you guys decide what is a keeper and what gets chucked? | |

| People generally dislike scopes on their shotguns (I know I do). Soldiers however might like scopes because on high acc shotguns like the maliwan crux, scattershot can actually turn it into a long distance gun | |

| the way i play, and you can ask others here on the forum-im in your fuckin face at all times, so i prefer no scopes-before i made my new character, i actually pulled all my shotguns that i used into willowtree and ripped the scopes off of them
thats just me though
and actually as far as iron sights go, the 1.5x iron sights are badass
i AM the shotgun king | |

| yeah see scattershot definitely comes into play when you rock a soldier, and shottys with 70 acc and up would most likely turn into a skullmasher in shotgun form
like my scoped 72.2 acc 2 shot 350x7 hunters shotty
yeah thatd be disgusting | |

^ this. I use my 80 ACC/1.9 FR Crimson Death as a sniper and my 72 ACC/2.4 FR Crimson Brute is my version of a burst fire CR. | |

| badass.
yeah i luckily picked up a non scoped version of that hunters found by cass and those guys, and even though its a 2 shot its got a 60% reload plus, so its definitely a very usable 2 shot-for me a definite in your damn face weapon
its funny-when you pick up a crimson lance power core, it one shots badass engineers | |

| Nice. I found a 350ishx7 (at work can't check exact damage) 2 shot Hunter's Defender last week and it's now my favorite gun at short range...that and my 266x7 Painful Brute with the 2.7 FR. | |

| Nice. Scoped or not that much damage is just money. I found my first Detonating Hammer on my last run last night, still haven't used it but it looks like a good time...damn I want to go shoot something. | |

| i have a really good 266x7 blast hammer-everyone seems to be finding the exact one as of late
but yeah its beast, especially since mine was blessed with no scope---as was my fatal crux
zombie island is HILARIOUS with a blast hammer or a fatal crux
and at jess-i found that exact one, the only down side is the recoil is HORRIBLE-but you know how i place
in your face at all times | |

| accuracy doesnt matter on a weapon that shoots a pattern-ive got a blast hammer that has 6 acc lol but no scope and its a near clone of the 266 one, but it shoots a pattern so acc is pointless | |

| Same with the Angry/Fatal Crux, but rapid fire + explosive = awesome | |

| I'd go with the Scoped, it's a Striker. The Strikers are made for ACC so a scope would be helpful. Most other shotguns, no scope kicks ass. | |

| I'm not really an expert with shottys, but I do like my TV screen scope on my Butcher as it has high accuracy being a Hyperion, and I could see using a scope for a Striker, but no scope would be good for most of the time. | |

| I still prefer shotties with scopes on my soldier, the only ones I use without scopes are bulldogs. My allrounder, with maxxed scattershot this is as accurate as a good assault rifle, kills the Lance in no time: This is my preferred bulldog with fast fire rate and the badass ironsights;: | |

| I have a similar brute and Bulldog and use them pretty much the same way. One of my new favorites is my Hunters Defender 367x7 with 72 Acc, no scope. A two shot (3 with Overload) but a beast at medium to short range. I'm also enjoying my new Terrible Matador with 230x12, 30 Acc, 1.3 RoF and 13 round mag. Never a Matador fan before but this shotty is tits for Run n Gun action.
Edit: it's a Pearl Matador | |

| A shotgun should never have a scope. I understand these high accuracy shotguns but a scope still looks retarded on them. | |
