LOGISTICS ANALYSIS
As a purchased tool, the ROI (Return on Investment) of the Shotgun depends on crew utility. At null credits, it typically requires the successful retrieval of approximately 0 average scrap items to break even. Losing this equipment during a failed run is a meaningful setback for early-game economy.
Standard safety protocols apply to the Shotgun. This item is non-conductive, making it safer to carry during Stormy conditions. This can improve route consistency on maps like Titan or March during thunderstorms, since you can transport it without relying on the "drop-walk" safety cadence. Additionally, because it requires two hands, your interaction speed is reduced: doors, ladders, and quick tool swaps become less reliable while transporting it.
