{{Info|The '''chain shotgun''' is a very short range, multi-shot [[weapon]] which fires 3-shot bursts which deal fairly high damage individually (X3); a slightly shorter delay between each shot; a moderate time between bursts; slightly lower overall accuracy and slightly heavier weight.}}
−
{{info|The chain shotgun is a considerably heavy, 'automatic' firearm in RimWorld which fires 3-shot bursts of high damage rounds, very short range, and very poor accuracy.}}
+
== Acquisition ==
−
Despite these caveats, the chain shotgun is capable of dealing out tremendous amounts of damage when spraying at clustered enemies, or at a single large foe due to the accuracy bonus received from doing so. Due to the fact that it's very short-ranged, the chain shotgun is a great weapon to equip even on people with very poor (<93% post-processed) shooting accuracy - without being penalised too badly.
+
{{Acquisition}}
  
 +
Chain shotguns can be [[Trade|purchased]] from [[outlander]] and orbital combat suppliers, outlander [[faction base]]s, or obtained from the following [[raider#Humanlike|raider]] kinds:
  
−
One scenario where the chain shotgun could prove to be extremely potent is when used in [[Defense structures#Killboxes|killboxes]], where the short distance and bunched up enemies allow this weapon to be unleashed at its full potential - but the improved AI in Alpha 17 could make this tactic somewhat less useful, and not everybody likes building killboxes as they take a lot of challenge out of the game.

== Analysis ==
 +
In terms of pure single-target {{DPS}}, the chain shotgun is the strongest firearm in the game and beat only by [[minigun]] against massed targets. This is counterbalanced by the shortest range of all human usable ranged weapons, equal to that of [[grenades]].
  
−
===Obtaining===
+
It fires a 3-shot burst, with each round as strong as a [[pump shotgun]], but with significantly higher fire rate. Raw damage output is amazing, only being surpassed by the [[minigun]] (before accuracy) and the single-use [[triple rocket launcher]]. In addition, the chain shotgun can stagger pawns as large as a [[centipede]]. The only enemies that cannot be staggered by the chain shotgun are the {{#ask: [[Body Size::>3.0001]]
−
As with most other ranged weapons, the chain shotgun can be purchased from outlander weapon caravans, and from orbital weapon traders - or obtained via incapacitating a chain shotgun-wielding outlander or pirate. Chain shotguns can also be manufactured at a [[machining table]] once the [[research#machining|machining]] research has been completed; for 70 [[steel]], 5 [[component]]s, and 45,000 ticks (750 secs) of work.

 +
While each burst is not particularly accurate, stray shots can occasionally hit surrounding targets, making it a good crowd-control weapon. The minigun has clear superiority for crowd control, but is much more expensive and has unique downsides such as terrible accuracy, a massive warmup/cooldown cycle, and a reduction in wielder [[move speed]].
  
−
===Conclusion & Comparison===
+
The chain shotgun is best suited as a close-quarters offensive weapon, though is an excellent supporting weapon due to its stopping power. It can be used behind melee fighters, and specialized [[killbox]]es take advantage of the shotgun's strength. It is especially good against [[infestation]]s and drop pods due to its stopping power, damage output, and crowd control, combined with the lack of range constraint. Note that even a shotgun won't be fired in melee combat, so keep your shotgun-wielding pawns out of melee, make good use of [[melee block]]ers, and engage chain shotgun-wielding enemies in melee.
  
 +
=== Stats ===
 +
Against an unarmored human, a chain shotgun can kill with 3 hits to the torso, 2 hits to the head or neck, or 1 hit to the brain; cripple or destroy limbs in 2 hits; and destroy eyes and digits with a single hit. It'll generally take around 4 hits (~6.98 seconds average) to incapacitate that human from pain shock.
  
−
The chain shotgun has extremely high damage potential owing to its zero-compromise damage per shot, and triple-burst nature; it is literally the 3-shot burst version of the [[pump shotgun]], and the [[LMG]] of the shotgun world - but its major caveats are its extremely handicapped range and accuracy, for the sake of balance to prevent this weapon from being absolutely insane. Against normal-sized targets, the chain shotgun still has superior damage output to the pump shotgun, but falls behind more accurate weapons such as the [[heavy SMG]].
+
Overall, the chain shotgun is best paired with a careful shooter up to level 6, then with a trigger-happy shooter beyond that point.
  
 +
{{Weapon Stats Table}}
  
−
However, against larger targets where the accuracy gets a positive multiplier, and at higher weapon quality levels, the chain shotgun can even usurp the almighty [[charge rifle]] in terms of having the highest damage output out of any standard ranged weapon in the game - an impressive feat to be sure. As previously mentioned, the chain shotgun can also be used for point-blank crowd control, to make use of the many missed shots that will inevitably occur.

The chain shotgun is a very short range, multi-shot weapon which fires 3-shot bursts which deal fairly high damage individually (X3); a slightly shorter delay between each shot; a moderate time between bursts; slightly lower overall accuracy and slightly heavier weight.

Acquisition[edit]

Chain shotguns can be crafted at a machining table once the gas operation research project has been completed. Each requires Steel 70 Steel, Component 5 Components, 31,000 ticks (8.61 mins) of work modified by the general labor speed of the crafter, and a crafting skill of 6.

Chain shotguns can be purchased from outlander and orbital combat suppliers, outlander faction bases, or obtained from the following raider kinds:

Raider Kind Chance Average Quality Health
Mercenary gunner 12.36% Normal 70-320%
Ancient soldier 11.05% Normal 100%

Analysis[edit]

In terms of pure single-target DPS, the chain shotgun is the strongest firearm in the game and beat only by minigun against massed targets. This is counterbalanced by the shortest range of all human usable ranged weapons, equal to that of grenades.

It fires a 3-shot burst, with each round as strong as a pump shotgun, but with significantly higher fire rate. Raw damage output is amazing, only being surpassed by the minigun (before accuracy) and the single-use triple rocket launcher. In addition, the chain shotgun can stagger pawns as large as a centipede. The only enemies that cannot be staggered by the chain shotgun are the Elephant, Megasloth, Thrumbo, Bulbfreak Content added by the Anomaly DLC, Devourer Content added by the Anomaly DLC, Dreadmeld Content added by the Anomaly DLC, Nociosphere Content added by the Anomaly DLC, Centurion Content added by the Biotech DLC, Diabolus Content added by the Biotech DLC, Tunneler Content added by the Biotech DLC, War queen Content added by the Biotech DLC by virtue of body size as well as the hussarContent added by the Biotech DLC, revenantContent added by the Anomaly DLC and chimeraContent added by the Anomaly DLC when raging, by virtue of stagger immunity.

While each burst is not particularly accurate, stray shots can occasionally hit surrounding targets, making it a good crowd-control weapon. The minigun has clear superiority for crowd control, but is much more expensive and has unique downsides such as terrible accuracy, a massive warmup/cooldown cycle, and a reduction in wielder move speed.

The chain shotgun is best suited as a close-quarters offensive weapon, though is an excellent supporting weapon due to its stopping power. It can be used behind melee fighters, and specialized killboxes take advantage of the shotgun's strength. It is especially good against infestations and drop pods due to its stopping power, damage output, and crowd control, combined with the lack of range constraint. Note that even a shotgun won't be fired in melee combat, so keep your shotgun-wielding pawns out of melee, make good use of melee blockers, and engage chain shotgun-wielding enemies in melee.

Stats[edit]

Against an unarmored human, a chain shotgun can kill with 3 hits to the torso, 2 hits to the head or neck, or 1 hit to the brain; cripple or destroy limbs in 2 hits; and destroy eyes and digits with a single hit. It'll generally take around 4 hits (~6.98 seconds average) to incapacitate that human from pain shock.

Overall, the chain shotgun is best paired with a careful shooter up to level 6, then with a trigger-happy shooter beyond that point.

    Chain shotgun vs. comparable weapons[edit]

    This section goes over how well the chain shotgun fares against comparable weapons (similar value, tech level or similar characteristics) in 1 vs. 1 combat.

    Methodology[edit]

    • All testing is semi-automated which allows for large sample sizes to be gathered per set of results with ease
    • All pawns have skill levels of 14 in ranged and melee
    • No pawns have any traits that affect combat performance
    • All pawns are of at least 18 years of age and completely healthy
    • Pawns are divided by walls to prevent stray shots from skewing results in any way
