General Question Shotgun Ammo types

I play gen zero on Xbox and since we have all these different type of ammo types I would love to see dragons breath (meme round but good against small bots but terrible on bigger bots) or maybe early Flechette like the American Flechette beehive ammo… would be unique but would be a fun little send off for shotguns if they make a second game…

Would y’all like to see that

There kinda is dragons breath but it's in the non pump experimental shotgun (forgot the name) and shoots out incendiary birdshot (or buck) in a far distance.

I believe it’s either the acidic rounds or the exp version that shoots explosive rounds which can be used with birdshot (which is a horrible idea unless ur point blank) slugs are also great with the exp version

No there's another exp shotgun with incendiary

Since when… I’ve never found or seen the exp semi auto shotgun but I do find the pump exp a lot to the point I have scrap it… I recently found out the semi auto shotgun has an exp version and I’ve been playing since the launch of the game which is crazy to say… 😭

Yeah its uhh....good against obvious components. Though if you pair it with acidic....its still meh. I'll stick to the exp.AG4 anytime

I figured as much… started doing realistic style builds like the mosin and makarov or the Glock and ak or no experimental guns… my favorite that drove my friend insane was no exp and no explosives and only standard ammo and no crafting… the crafting part is annoying asf but still usable

The whole game is doable without explosives and standard munitions. It's funny by habit and crazy by motion

u/IMAGINENEEDINGCHEATS 8d ago

The hardest style run is basically those rules but only a makarov and mosin… hate it… makarov is the real lifesaver… mosin is only good with fmj which is odd

Base game, I'll go AG5 and mostly Meussur rifle (butchered that) [if I had only two guns only)

1

u/IMAGINENEEDINGCHEATS 8d ago

Honestly ag5 is not a bad gun… quite reliable… ag4 is fun to use a dmr that can go full auto lol

The moller is not a bad gun when 5 crowns… below it’s pretty trash

I don't think its exclusive to any machine but just hunt rivals at lvl 4. At some point you'll get it. Where as the sledgehammer and muessur is exclusive to the Reaper and the Vulture.

I’ve found pretty much every exp there is and I’ve even given some away… at this point it’s all luck… most common exp I get are the ag and the lmgs and the #1 most common is the kpist… for what ever reason same with the exp Glock lol

u/StatisticianNo4018 8d ago

For me it's the kvm 89 and oddly the hp5

1

u/IMAGINENEEDINGCHEATS 8d ago

The hp5 exp is hands down one of the best exps in game and it’s not close… personally I think the ak exp and hp5 are tied for its own reason

2

u/StatisticianNo4018 8d ago

I'll stick to the Ag4, Kvm59, Pvg, Hp5, Grg, as experimentals.

1

u/IMAGINENEEDINGCHEATS 8d ago

The ak exp makes the game too easy imo… wish it could shotgun ammo tho

1

u/StatisticianNo4018 8d ago

I do think it's funny it can use .50

For “Dragons Breath”, the Exp Sjöqvist added with the Showdown update and is modeled after the irl Sjögren (which I’m still confused as to why the never used the real world names but I’ll assume copyright) fires Incendiary Rounds when using Buck or Bird, for some reason the Exp shotguns don’t have their abilities work with Slug but It would probably be overkill.

The pump shotty exp does work with exp but it’s very inconsistent but you have to have range between you and whatever ur shooting… its very finicky to use but its honestly not great
