In Lethal Company a shotgun is one of the most powerful types of weapons, with which you can easily destroy many monsters in Game. It can be obtained either by examining the complex or by using a special modification. In this guide, we'll show you how to obtain this double-barreled shotgun, use it, and find ammo for it.
How to Find and Use a Shotgun in Lethal Company
At the moment, you cannot buy a double-barreled shotgun in the game without mods. You can only get it in one way - by finding the Nutcracker and killing him. The required weapon drops from it. Next, we will tell you where you can find this monster and how to kill it.
How to kill a nutcracker
You can only encounter this enemy inside the complex, and most often he appears in the mansion, that is, you should look for him on Titan, where the probability of the corresponding location appearing is almost 19%. He looks like a big tin soldier from a fairy tale and is armed with a shotgun.
You can learn about the approach of this enemy by the characteristic clicks and sounds of a wind-up toy. It only reacts to movement, so if you stand still, the nutcracker is likely to pass by you.
However, beware of his eye, which appears when the monster raises its head - if you get into its line of sight, you will immediately become its first target. In this case, he will try to kill you even if you freeze in place.
If the enemy notices you, then try to quickly hide behind some kind of cover, for example, a column or a box, so that the soldier cannot kill you with a shotgun. Then wait until he approaches you and fires two shots. When you hear the sound of reloading, immediately run out of cover, hit the enemy 1-2 times with a shovel or a road sign, and then hide again. Try to hit the nutcracker's open eye. Usually he dies from 4-5 hits with a shovel.
Note that he is affected by flash-bang grenades and stun gun : the first ones blind him, and the second ones paralyze him for a few seconds. Use this weapon to slow down your enemy and give you time to find cover. If there are other players on the team, you can distract him so that your ally can sneak up behind him and quickly destroy his eye.
Note: You can try to steal the shotgun directly from the nutcracker's hands (sneak up to him undetected, and then press the "E" key). However, if successful, the monster will begin to chase the thief everywhere, trying to engage him in close combat. His kick instantly sends the character to the next world. Plus, you won't get extra ammo.
If you don't want to risk trying to kill the nutcracker or steal his double-barreled gun, then you can simply use it by setting it on other monsters. The fact is that the soldier will attack most of the monsters he meets on his way.
When the nutcracker is killed, you just need to take the double-barreled weapon from his hands. You can also pick up two Shotgun Shells for him. The shotgun itself may also contain bullets. As a result, your ammunition supply can range from two to four shells.
How to use a shotgun
To fire a shotgun, you just need to click on the left mouse button. You can fire no more than two shots at a time, after which you need to reload by pressing the “E” key by default. It will be carried out if additional cartridges are available.
You can put the weapon on safety using the "Q" key - this will reduce the risk of you accidentally firing a shot. In addition, without using the safety, the shotgun can fire spontaneously if you throw it on the floor, killing your ally.
The double-barreled shotgun has a small radius of destruction, so you should shoot at enemies from as close a distance as possible (about 2-3 meters). Otherwise, you will only waste shells. But thanks to the large spread, you can kill several enemies at once in one shot if they are close to each other.
If a centipede gets on your head, you can shake it off by simply firing a shotgun. Unfortunately, due to a bug, the first shot may not hit the enemy. If you notice this error, try opening fire on the enemy from a different angle. Let's add that this weapon allows you to kill most of the monsters in the game:
- Nutcracker - dies with 1 shot if hit in the eye.
- Masked - dies with 1 shot.
- Jester - cannot be killed.
- Coil-Head - cannot be killed.
- Snare Flea – dies with 1 shot.
- Ghost Girl - cannot be killed.
- Bracken – dies in 2-3 shots.
- Hygrodere - cannot be killed.
- Spider – dies in 2-3 shots (most likely, he dies in one, but hitting him can sometimes be problematic).
- Forest Keeper - most likely impossible to kill or requires a lot of ammo.
- Blind Dog - most likely cannot be killed or requires a lot of ammo.
- Thumper– dies in 2-3 shots.
- Worm - cannot be killed.
Let's add that double-barreled weapons cost 30-90 credits, so if you fail to complete quota, then you can try to sell it.
How to get ammo
Unfortunately, without mods it is impossible to buy them in the store, so the only way to replenish your ammo is to find and kill nutcrackers, which are guaranteed to drop 2 cartridges. Plus, you can pick up the second double-barreled gun if it has bullets.
Shotgun mods in Lethal Company
