[HOT] : Mass Effect: What are the best weapon mods for shotguns? Part one

Hunting rifles in Mass Effect 3 are extremely effective at close range. The best Shotgun mods improve accuracy, melee damage, and weight.

To fight the toughest Reaper enemies like the Banshees and Harvesters that appear in Mass Effect 3, Shepard and his team will need to get better gear. Mass Effect: Legendary Edition removes class restrictions on weapons, meaning players have access to more options than ever before. In Mass Effect 3, all weapons have mods that can be purchased or found during missions. These weapon mods improve or increase a weapon’s stability, accuracy, magazine cartridges, and damage dealt. Hunting rifles are particularly lethal at close range, making them an ideal choice for classes like the Soldier, Engineer, and Vanguard who tend to get close to their enemies. Players can make them much more powerful with upgrades and mods.

Each weapon in Mass Effect 3 supports two mods, although some mods cannot be combined. Players can change their mods for any weapon before any mission and on the weapon banks. While there aren’t objectively better mods for shotguns, as every Shepard build and playstyle might require something different, players should generally consider using mods to improve the accuracy of the shotgun. hunting, damage power, weight, and melee damage. Here are some of the best mods for shotguns in Mass Effect 3 and where to find them.

How to choose shotgun mods in Mass Effect 3

Typically, the best shotgun mods in Mass Effect 3 will improve accuracy, weapon and melee damage, and carry weight. The optimal mods to choose from include:

Shotgun Smart Choke: Increases accuracy by 30% or more Shotgun Omni-Blade: Adds a visible Omni-Blade to the shotgun for 30% or more melee damage High Speed Shotgun Cannon: Increases damage by 15% or more, piercing damage 50% or more, and ignores enemy defenses by 25% or more per shot Ultralight Shotgun Materials: Reduces weapon weight by 8% or more.

It is not possible to combine Shotgun Smart Choke and Ultralight Materials, so players will have to choose one or the other depending on their combat situation and playstyle. High speed increases weapon weight by 50%, so it may be better to choose either one to avoid cluttering up and receiving a power reload penalty. This will be especially important when building a Vanguard Shepard. While not as powerful, players can also swap these mods for the high caliber blade attachment and barrel, which have similar benefits without the added weight. Some players may prefer not to have to reload as often with their shotgun, so the spare shotgun thermal clip could come in handy in these situations, although most players don’t struggle with ammo issues. until the final fight.

Each mod can be found or purchased up to five times. Every time Shepard gets a duplicate of the mod, it will increase the level and effectiveness of the mod. For example, finding or purchasing a second Shotgun Smart Choke will increase the accuracy of any weapon it is equipped with by 35% or more, and a third will increase that to 40%. It is also possible to increase damage dealt and reduce the weight of any weapon by upgrading weapons at the Normandy Shuttle Bay Upgrade Terminal. This can extend the potency of a mod further than it would otherwise on a lower level weapon.

Typically, Shepard will encounter certain mods during Mass Effect 3 missions. Other times, they will need to purchase the mod from vendors to receive the full mod upgrade. The missions and vendors where players can find the four best Shotgun mods in Mass Effect 3 appear below:

Smart Choke shotgun: Tuchanka: turian platoon; Priority: Tuchanka; Priority: Geth Dreadnought; Arms of the Batarian State; Elkoss Combine Arsenal Supplies (2) Shotgun Omni-Blade: Omega: Talon Territory; Omega: The Mines; Omega: The Assault on the Hereafter; Harrot’s Emporium (3) High Speed Shotgun Cannon: Omega: The Omega Invasion; Omega: Talon Territory; Omega: The Assault on the Hereafter; Harrot’s Emporium (3) Ultralight Shotgun Materials: Citadel Archives: Escape; Quays of the Citadel: Take back Normandy; Reach the highest score on Relay Defense in Castle Arcade; Aegohr ammunition; Specter Requests (2)

Whenever Shepard fails to collect a mod from a Mission, it can also become available through the Spectrum Request Terminal in the Presidium Embassies on the Citadel.

Mass Effect : Legendary Edition est disponible sur PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One et Xbox Series X/S.

What is the best assault rifle in Mass Effect LE?

Mass Effect Legendary Edition offers three games with their own unique weapon set to choose from.

There is a plethora of assault rifles in the games, however, there is one rifle that is simply a cut above the rest in two of the three games.

Mass Effect

For those who are fanatics of the series, the first game has a simple answer as to what the best assault rifle is, or rather what is the best weapon set to get: the Spectre – Ensemble Master Gear.

The set has a full arsenal of weapons for players to choose from that aren’t limited to assault rifles. His pistol, shotgun, and sniper rifle from the set are undeniably overpowered and will allow you to mow down any enemy to make the game easier.

The caveat to all of this is that it’s not necessarily the easiest set to acquire.

For his assault rifle, there are only two levels to get the weapon, VII and X (although you can access other levels with hints). To obtain the level VII rifle, the achievement “Rich” must be unlocked by having over a million credits in the game. To obtain his level X rifle, money must be saved throughout the game. as it will cost an arm and a leg to buy it, and on top of that, Shepard will need to be level 50.
