Striker: Docs vs. Rustlers

[Mister Torgue Flexington]

this particular shotgun is one of my favorites in the game, next to the Conference Call, and to an extent, the Flakker (for the iconic Flakker/Ahab exploit).

but which of the 2 prefixes do you prefer more, the "Doc's" for the 130% Critical Bonus Damage, or the "Rustler's" for the one extra pellet that gives it a slight increase in Base Damage?

I personally use "Vertical Grip" on any shotgun that consumes 1 ammo per shot, and "Tech 2 " on any shotgun that consumes 2 or more ammo per shot.

The 2 extra pellets from the vertical grip will make little difference on high pellet counts and will make the accuracy slightly worse, making it more reasonable to use Tech2 since it increases accuracy a little bit (tightening the spread), while also giving the crit bonus for better DPS.

thought so. I only asked, is because i'm planning on doing a gun-based Zer0 build, and the Striker shotgun will be one of the said weapons that's going to be used. and because his skill "Precisi0n" makes any weapon more accurate (including the famous "InfiniBee" combo [aka "Infinity + Bee + Leg. Sniper COM"]), I wanted to know which prefix would suit him better.
