Odd parings.. Gotta be my stalker shottie!!
Stalker with Shotguns, Yes!
I think of shotgun type of damage in two ways. Damage Over Time (DOT) and Area Of Effect (AOE). If you would like a visual of what 25'' looks like, then pop the Guardian Shutdown Ablility. Hey, thats another beloved favorite of mine was my Guardian Shottie! As Guardian, I would pop the shutdown wave, shutting down my target. then I'd say 'the shotgun damage are going the same way' and so it came to pass.
Put Shotguns on a Stalker for a good time and party favors. I hope you like group kills because that's what youre going to see a lot of. Skulls, skulls and more skulls. Youre healing yourself on every kill using a stalker so keep that in mind when youre getting a monster kill from wiping the entire party in 1-2 pumps, and then be full HP before they respawn -WOW-
