TACTICS:
The Ambrose Shotgun performs as a slightly more effective standard shotgun, delivering a powerful impact with high accuracy, enabling it to easily dispatch the infected with one shot. Its level of high performance is limited by its short engagement range, relatively slow attack/reload speed and limited magazine, meaning it is best used as part of a team, supporting and being supported by other operatives.
Recommended gear:
- Ammunition Mods increases the ballistic performance of the weapon.
- Extended Mags increases the staying power of the weapon.
- Ammunition Pouch/Bandoliers decreases the amount of time the weapon's operator will spend reloading.
- Glasses remedies the weapon's short engagement range, with some variants improving the wielder's ability to strike their target.
