Description[]
A 4-barrelled riot shotgun used by the notorius shadow warrior Lo Wang, the Riot Gun is a cumbersome weapon that has several modes of fire. It can fire one shell at a time or four very rapidly. It can also fire Tesla ammunition, turning it into an energy chaingun. There are rumours of other illegal mods to this gun.
Loadout Cost: 0.75K
Location[]
The Riot Gun can be found in Millhaven, in the barracks near the Church. It can also be found in Providence, by retreiving the Cog from the Crypts and then unlocking either the Mine or the Prison storage areas.
Gameplay[]
The Riot Gun is a relatively inaccurate, but decent semi-automatic shotgun that can fire either one shot at a time, or quad-blasts in rapid succession (Note that after the latter however, the gun needs to be cocked). As all shotgun weapons it's ineffective against body armour and heavy armour, but anything else is fair game. This weapon doesn't need to be reloaded. Also, every shot will push you back a little.
The Riot Gun can also take Tesla ammunition, turning it into a some kind of electric minigun. Tesla attacks are useful against both armoured and supernatural targets; although it deals no extra damage it doesn't suffer any damage reduction either. However, you need to spin up the barrels of the gun before you start firing.
Research[]
Finding the Riotgun is one of the requirements towards researching the Riotgun-Minigun.
Trivia[]
This weapon looks and behaves mostly like the same weapon from the classic Shadow Warrior game.
