duplet or auto shotgun, which does more damage?

[mattig]

Simple enough, I'm wondering whether the double barrel shotgun does more damage then the full auto shotgun you get off of burbon (or buy in the station). This is shot for shot mind you.

See, I'm guessing that they do about the same amount of damage. But I'm not sure, hence why I asked

well I think this game is not much about weapon damage, I think it's more about using your weapon and stealth ^^
for example:
you can 1 shot nearly anything normal enemies (even on higher difficulties) and boss enemies can go down pretty quick with duplet but it's VERY VERY dangerous when using duplet to those enemies because they simply never go alone and the reloading time for duplet is not that fast (that assumes you can hit them with every shot and that's a VERY BIG assumtion)

About auto shotgun, we have a powerful melee attack from 1 of the upgrade, we have bigger room for miss shot, we have more ammo for fighting horde but the downside is the reloading time is VERY SLOW and damage per shot is not that impressive

to answer your question, I think duplet is stronger PER SHOT, because it can shoot from all its barrel at once

[mattig]

so...because of the fact that you can fire both barrels at once, its a better single shot weapon?

Has anyone had alot of success with the auto shotgun compared to the duplet?

Firing both barrels at once the duplet is much stronger but that being said you will then have to reload. the auto shotgun is slightly weaker but packs 5 or 6 and always has the backup melee attack. I prefer the duplet but if using the melee attack you can buy time to reload one shell.

Thanks all.

I asked because I was going to sell my first volt driver, then put the money towards filters. Turns out, theres a max limit on how many filters you can carry, so that was a waste of money. But it is what it is, I used the auto shotgun for a bit, and its an alright gun.

I just wish I could iron sight aim with it.

Just get the heavy automatic shotgun, its way better than both of them..

I have the best success is the duplet shotgun, just personal preferance, though.
