Shotgun

Shotgun (Pathologic 2)=

The Shotgun is a ranged Weapon in Pathologic 2. It shoots Shotgun Ammo, and can hold up to 2 shots. While it becomes almost useless at medium to long range, it is devastating at close distances, and excels indoors. Because of its small ammo capacity, it is not recommended for use against multiple opponents at once.

A Shotgun at 66% durability can be bought from Bad Grief starting on Day 5 for 12920 coins. The Haruspex can also receive it as a reward from Bad Grief for killing Barley the Barber and his men as part of a quest available during as of Day 8, after Bad Grief relocates to the Cathedral. Should he not want to get involved, the Haruspex can also purchase a shotgun from Barley instead. Shotguns can be sold to all stores and traded to Militia.

The Shotgun fires 5 pellets within each round: If all 5 connect, they collectively deal 110 damage per bodyshot and 165 damage per headshot. Each shot decreases durability by 5%. The chance of jamming is (1 - durability)2.

Quote
"A fearsome makeshift weapon, possibly made from a double-barreled hunting gun. The smooth barrels are cut short. Fires 16 gauge shotgun rounds. Deadly in close quarters, but ineffective at long distances. The trigger system allows to fire two shots in a row."
