Strategy
Double-Barrel is a powerful tool in support specialist's arsenal. Sporting great 250 base damage if all 10 pellets hit. With this weapon you can efficiently kite a Fleshpound. When Fleshpound is about to hit you move backwards jump and press alt-fire, recoil from the gun will push you out of the hit range and you will escape unscratched while dealing significant damage to Fleshpound.
Double-Barrelled Boomstick also has enough damage to kill Husk or Siren with a double-shot. This is a risky strategy since you need to get close to execute it.
Significant kick - will knock player backwards when fired, (or upwards if aiming down and jumping).
Trivia
- Can deal up to 12000 damage with full ammo (48) capacity as off-perk weapon.
- When firing both barrels, assuming all pellets connect, it will do 500 (560 if fully upgraded) damage to the target.
