{{Quotation|'''The Scout'''|Yeah, come get some, ya frickin' wuss!|sound=Scout_taunts06.wav}}
 
−
The '''Scattergun''' is the stock [[primary]] weapon for the [[Scout]] class. It is a short, double-barreled lever-action Shotgun.
 
  
−
Delivering ten pellets per shot, this weapon has a wide cone of fire and high damage falloff. While deadly at close range, requiring only two shots to take down most classes, the Scattergun becomes mediocre at medium range and near useless at a distance. This forces players to move close to enemies and deal sufficient damage while utilising the class's distinct speed to avoid retaliation.
+
{{Quotation|'''The Scout'''|Yeah, come get some, ya frickin' wuss!|sound=Scout taunts06.wav}}
  
−
Other than a slightly increased damage and wider spread, the Scattergun is equal to the standard [[Shotgun]] in all regards. If fired from a position close to a target, the attack is capable of causing [[knockback]]. The Scattergun's first shell will fire at least one pellet straight down the crosshair before 'bullet-spread' takes effect. When random spread is disabled the pellets will land forming a three by three grid pattern.  
+
The '''Scattergun''' is the default [[Weapons#scoutprimary|primary weapon]] for the [[Scout]]. It is a short, [[w:Double-barreled shotgun|double-barreled]], lever-action {{botignore|shotgun}} with a wooden handle and foregrip.
  
−
==Damage==
+
The Scattergun is extremely similar to the [[Shotgun]] available to other classes, possessing the same base damage per pellet, number of pellets fired per shot, and [[ammo]] capacity. However, the Scattergun has increased [[Damage#Distance modifier|damage ramp-up]] at distances of under 512 [[Hammer unit]]s, allowing it to deal more damage than the Shotgun at close range.

The Scattergun's shells always fire at least one pellet straight down the [[Heads-up display|crosshair]], while the other bullets are spread out. Random bullet spread, enabled in [[Casual Mode]], causes the bullets to spread out in a random pattern. When random bullet spread is disabled, the pellets instead disperse in a fixed three-by-three grid pattern, with two pellets overlapping in the center of the grid.

Medium range is defined as the main resupply door to the opposite wall on the upper level of [[2Fort]].  Long range is defined as battlement to battlement on [[2Fort]]. Base damage is the damage done at 512 units before damage variance or bullet spread. Ramp up maxes out at 0 units. Fall off maxes out at 1024 units. Damages are approximate and determined by community testing.

The Scattergun is the default primary weapon for the Scout. It is a short, double-barreled, lever-action shotgun with a wooden handle and foregrip.

The Scattergun is extremely similar to the Shotgun available to other classes, possessing the same base damage per pellet, number of pellets fired per shot, and ammo capacity. However, the Scattergun has increased damage ramp-up at distances of under 512 Hammer units, allowing it to deal more damage than the Shotgun at close range.

The Scattergun's shells always fire at least one pellet straight down the crosshair, while the other bullets are spread out. Random bullet spread, enabled in Casual Mode, causes the bullets to spread out in a random pattern. When random bullet spread is disabled, the pellets instead disperse in a fixed three-by-three grid pattern, with two pellets overlapping in the center of the grid.
