Question: what is the difference between a shotgun and a scattergun?
Answer: Scattergun has +75% short-range ramp-up, with a maximum damage of 105 (before damage spread). Shotgun only has +50% ramp-up, with a maximum damage of 90 (before damage spread). Shotgun fires slightly faster, but only by like a couple hundredths of a second. Scattergun reloads the initial shell much quicker.
