The '''Shotgun''' is the primary weapon for the [[Engineer]], and the secondary weapon for the [[Soldier]], [[Pyro]], and [[Heavy]]. It is listed in the loadout menu for all of them as a Level 1 Shotgun. It fires fairly rapidly, 10 pellets at a time, every 0.6 seconds, and can deliver high damage at close range but has a high damage falloff.  As the Engineer's most powerful weapon, he uses it primarily for defending his [[Dispenser]] or [[Teleporter]], for engaging an enemy attempting to exploit a weakness in his [[Sentry Gun]], and for helping a low-leveled Sentry Gun finish off a kill. The Pyro uses the Shotgun for engaging targets unreachable by his [[Flamethrower]] while the Soldier may rely on the Shotgun if he's out of Rockets, needs a weapon that won't cause damage to himself (as Rockets do) or if Rockets simply won't work in a specific situation. On the other hand, the Heavy may use the Shotgun to take down an enemy if he doesn't have the time to rev up his own [[Minigun]].  For more information on Shotgun tactics, see the [[Shotgun#See also|Shotgun strategy links]] at the bottom of the page. Like the [[Scattergun]] and the [[Force-A-Nature]], the Shotgun's first shell will fire at least one pellet straight down the crosshair before 'bullet spread' takes effect.

The '''Shotgun''' is the default secondary weapon for the [[Soldier]], [[Pyro]], and [[Heavy]], and the default [[Weapons#engieprimary|primary weapon]] for the [[Engineer]]. It is a pump-action, sawed-off {{botignore|shotgun}}.

Medium range is defined as the length from the main resupply door to the opposite wall on the upper level of 2Fort. Long range is defined as the length from 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 Shotgun'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 spread in a fixed three-by-three grid pattern, with two pellets overlapping in the center of the grid.

== Trivia ==
 
== Trivia ==
−
*Unlike other classes, the Pyro pumps the Shotgun after switching to it, which also serves as a visual indicator of the one second delay before you are able to fire.
+
* As with most {{botignore|shotguns}} in the game, the Shotgun is a left-handed model (as shown by the ejection port being visible on the left hand side of the gun), despite all classes holding it right-handed. A right-handed Shotgun has the ejection port on its right side to prevent ejected shells from striking the user.
−
*The Heavy holds the Shotgun in a different position than the other classes, presumably due to his large hands (he holds the grip between his index finger and thumb).
 
−
*The Engineer can reload his Shotgun faster than the Pyro and the Soldier and at the same rate as the Heavy. ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkMIi4SgTlY Proof])
 
−
*The Shotgun has [[Developer weapon]] variants.
 
−
*The Shotgun appears to be based heavily off of the [[Wikipedia:Remington_870|Remington 870]] and the [[Wikipedia:Ithaca_37|Ithaca 37]].
 
−
**[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ul1QDc19veM YouTube video of the Remington 870].
 
−
*After the [[WAR! Update]], the Soldier's Shotgun taunt changed. Before, the Soldier would juggle explosives (this is now the [[Buff Banner]]'s taunt). Now, he does a 21 Gun Salute, with a portion of Taps[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taps] playing in the background. When it is used, the Shotgun appears to fire, but does not use ammo, hurt enemies, nor has a muzzleflash, suggesting he is firing blanks.
 
−
* The Shotgun, [[Pistol]], and [[Pain Train]] are the only weapons in the game to be used by more than one class.
 
−
*The Engineer obtained his Shotgun from the Sentry kit he designed in collaboration with TF Industries. The Soldier probably obtained his Shotgun during World War II and was one of the many weapons he learned to load and fire by himself. It is unknown where the Heavy and Pyro got their shotguns, although because of both of their love for weapons, it is possible they acquired them independently or simply bought one from TF Industries.
 
−
*Although it cannot physically be seen by the player in-game, use of the Source SDK model viewer reveals that the Engineer taps the pump of his Shotgun whilst it is not in use.
 
−
*A server console command can be used to disable random bullet spread for the Shotgun, along with other pellet weapons like the [[Scattergun]]. When activated, any shots with these weapons will fire their 9 pellets in a perfect 3x3 square.

Latest revision as of 16:42, 24 September 2024

This article is about the stock primary or secondary weapon shared by the Soldier, Pyro, Heavy, and Engineer. For other shotguns, see Shotgun (disambiguation).
“ ”

The Shotgun is the default secondary weapon for the Soldier, Pyro, and Heavy, and the default primary weapon for the Engineer. It is a pump-action, sawed-off shotgun.

The Shotgun deals high damage at close range. However, its damage falloff at range and low accuracy makes it weak in long-ranged firefights.

The Shotgun'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 spread in a fixed three-by-three grid pattern, with two pellets overlapping in the center of the grid.

Taunting as Pyro with the Shotgun equipped results in the Hadouken kill taunt.

Bugs

  • Sometimes the player gets stuck in the reloading animation in world view while playing as a Soldier. This can be fixed by switching weapons.
  • The stock variant of the Shotgun has a different viewmodel position compared to non-stock variants of the weapon.

Trivia

  • As with most shotguns in the game, the Shotgun is a left-handed model (as shown by the ejection port being visible on the left hand side of the gun), despite all classes holding it right-handed. A right-handed Shotgun has the ejection port on its right side to prevent ejected shells from striking the user.
