How the guide works

We are trying here to share our preferences with you to help you make the right choice when building your arsenal and that is why for each category, the weapons have been sorted from the best one to the least one.

Mastiff Shotgun (legendary weapon)

Apex Legends

Damage

Ammunition

Slot

Headshot: 288
Bodyshot: 144

Unique ammo

-

This semi-auto shotgun outperforms its competitors. Nevertheless it is a legendary weapon very difficult to find (hot zone, or supply). If you have the chance to come across this shotgun that sends 4 bullets per magazine with a striking power of 288 hits in the head, then consider that the victory is close...

Peacekeeper

Apex Legends

Damage

Ammunition

Slot

Headshot: 165
Bodyshot: 110

Shotgun shells

Optic
Mag
Hop-up

This shotgun is by far the most powerful of conventional shotguns, but it requires a great aim to get all the benefits. With only 6 bullets per magazine and a mandatory reload of just over a second before each shot, you won't have any room for error with the Peacekeeper. Nevertheless, a good player armed with this shotgun will do real damage.

EVA-8 Auto

Apex Legends

Damage

Ammunition

Slot

Headshot: 90
Bodyshot: 63

Shotgun shells

Optic
Mag

A great alternative to the previous shotgun, this automatic shotgun holds 8-rounds before reloading, making it easier for you to hit your enemies in a duel situation. If you're not yet very comfortable with your shot or just like to play it like Terry Crews in Expendables, then this weapon is for you.

Mozambique Shotgun

Apex Legends

Damage

Ammunition

Slot

Headshot: 66
Bodyshot: 45

Shotgun shells

Optic
Mag

With only 3 rounds, this hybrid between a shotgun and a pistol has no real argument for positioning itself as a secondary weapon, indeed the Wingman has much more to offer.
