Shotgun is a handheld weapon in Anthem. They are standard weapons for every javelin.
Shotguns fire several shrapnel using their ammo. These pellets have a spread, making shotguns extremely effective against enemies at very close range. At a far range, they do very minimal damage that depends on the number of shrapnel contacting the target.
Shotguns can be fired at a whim, but holding the trigger for a short duration narrows down the spread of the shrapnel. Each shrapnel can also do damage to enemy weak points.
