My biggest advice to everyone doing this quest: take a second shotgun with you, completely unmodified other than with 8 round magazine. When you fully unload the first shotgun, just swap to the second one, people usually expect you to start reloading and running away, and often start aggressively chasing you. Sadly the pistol-slot sawed-off doesn't work for the quest.
I've been shortening my MP-153 shotgun barrels as I lose tiny amounts of recoil reduction and pick up ergo. Because of the idiotic way shotgun patterns and spread are modeled in tarkov, a short barrel vs a long one has no impact on the pattern, just where the "center" of the pattern is based off of accuracy.
I mostly use MP-133. It’s a pump action shotgun but it’s fits my play style. The semi-auto will make me try to hit more and stand ground but the pump restrict me from that. I found myself survived more because I need to take cover and move more to hit from new angle or another position. Higher ergo makes me faster ads even 750mm barrel. 8.5mm buck aim for the throat mostly one shot because 1 of the pallet will hit the eyes or jaw or expose neck in some case. 2 Pallets on any limb will disable the part. The 10 moa is acceptable for buck shot at effective distance. The devastation dmg and high heavy breeding change might kill some from a single point blank leg shot.
I bit the bullet and paid extra for flechette and it absolutely smacked. I killed 5 PMC's in one game today which completed the quest for me. Spend the extra money, forget piranha
FTX with the default zero for buckshot will shoot a little high till about 150, from 150-200 it pretty much is dead on before it falls below the dot, so if you're using the target ring with the 153 you can aim at their chin and you'll pop them in the face for close to mid range.
I kept exclusively to copper slugs this wipe though it does get annoying when someone's back is to you and they have a helmet on so there's no face hitbox. Maybe I should have tried for leg meta more?
I haven’t had good results with piranha at all, I’ve tried 6 raids with it and had 32 hits on one pmc with 9 damage dealt, in 6 raids with close to 200 rounds used I e only killed one pmc. Last wipe using the same ammo I did setup in 5 raids. It’s not working well for me this wipe at all
10:15 shots have really bad base accuracy, but all slugs have big accuracy buffs as part of their stats, some more than others, but accuracy (as in deviation from pount of aim) actually isnt bad on most slugs out of the 153
Come on BSG, give shotguns a real place in the game! Watching them bounce off armour without even stunning the target due to the back face deformation punching them in the chest is… painful. The armor damage effect of piranha and flechette is really nice, and confirmed three/four shot kill times vs. mid tier armour gives them some place. But while I like the new armor changes, shotguns are suffering!
Ik it would be really silly but I’d love to see some gameplay with a 155 with the bipod using ap-20. I don’t want to do it myself so I understand not wanting to do it
Day 3 of wipe I had a full 9 rounds of flechette and hit a guy for 1500 armor and 370 body. Everybody else has been hiding inside bushes or under cars. Setup actually feels worse than last wipe at least people moved and fought smh
my longest shot with a shotgun Sformance hp slug was 158m headshot on a pmc and im gonna be honest if my buddy who got killed by him doesnt check his profile i would still be wondering if he's dead or not
I found that the 153 with 6.5mm express with the rtc choke and a 7 or 8 round tube with a flash light or whatever tac device you like makes it a breeze😮💨
it does count as a shotgun, but the quest description is specifically "MP-series shotguns" (and the wiki confirms this), so you can't use the MP18 for the same reason you can't use a KS23 or a TOZ
@@3211learza ye you cant use KS23 but MP-18 is in the MP series, and game puts it in shotgun category. Wiki is fanmade if I´m correct so that does not rule out the option. I would prefere to some test it out just to make sure
@@Doc_Paradox playing arena made me realize how inconsistent the netcode really is. u just dont notice it as much on EFT where the engagements are far betweeen. So basically anything that aint fully auto is gonna just get u killed.
@@maricorp.449 headshot a player last night, for a brief second absolutely nothing happened, he stood up and just started to run and then fell over dead- the worst I've seen it thus far, easily took a solid 2 seconds for the full client-server-client cycle to complete in that moment
10 pellets vs 8 for fleccete, piranha does more damage per pellet while flec has slightly more pen. Piranha is cheaper and will kill to the face and flesh easier, plus you arent beating anything above class 4 with flec anyway
The nerf to flechette combined with the unrealistic tank armor shows lack of consistency and is not fun. Give me back old 38 pen flechette and 15 kills. Shotguns are fun but with shit ammo

The MP155 with a delta point, ultima hand guard for a tbl blue laser, and the extended 8 shell tube. I used flechette only
I love watching the Tarkov home shopping network
100%agree. The budget builds are so fun
Mp-18 single shot rifle also counts as a shotgun for some reason. Have been using it with lps to get mine done
Wait no shit really? I’ll have to check it out maybe it’s been patched but idk never even tried the quest

Yep, reloading is a bitch so two stock 133 is the way to go. Don't even bother with ring target, embrace the bead
I use flechette for auto shotty and magnum for double barren shotgun aiming for legs
7:33 woah woah woah, sniper shotty build time

9:34 Reminds me of an angry dog.
I enjoy putting an elcan on and running the goat csp rounds and tap heads
i just used a Monstrum x2 scope and Light custom slugs and went for headshots (best at mid range, slugs fall like a stone after like 50m)
Love the videos as always giga thanks man!
Finished setup in 2 raids. Just grab a base 155 and use magnum to click heads.

Shotguns last wipe before they ruined armour to dum it down where so good you could aim at the upper chest and kill
You can actually wait for Jaeger lvl 3 to but Flachette now which is very interesting

Use piranha , more projectiles than flechette

in flechette we trust
thanks for the help👍
Daaamn Guns in this game are heavy 8 millions kg, steve escape minecraft
wait, i thought the mp18 also counted? or am I wrong?
it doesn't, because tarkov devs are LAME!
But it does level up shot gun skills xD
Wish chokes would tighten then spread which is what im pretty is what their irl intended purpose is

Flechette is cheap on flea

Hello, BTW cant you use MP-18, it counts as shotgun for some reason. I cant test it myself, already done the quest.
i'll test it out later tonight

Greeting from moon base LV-19 gigabeef
died around 50 times with 4 kils which 2 took me 8 hours
Shotguns are just garbo this wipe. Flechette be garbo too
Only bc there are no armor gaps anymore. Just aim legs or head and gg

I wish our pmc wouldn’t jerk the gun while pumping, that would make pump shotguns so much better…
why does it feel like piranha eats way better than flechette
10 pellets vs 8 for fleccete, piranha does more damage per pellet while flec has slightly more pen.

@@chronoarms4821 that makes sense thank you daddy
For a class that is meant to be best in close quarters, shotguns really suck even up close
I was pretty lucky. Finished the setup in like 6 raids... It felt much more than that... I hate this task
me still stucking at 3/7 usec kills even tho I'm lv 23 already
Yikes is this your first wipe? I’ve been stuck on jagers s first quest, I can’t find that damn large beef stew for the life of me
@madcat3.0 This is my 6th wipe or so....
@@mysterioushomoguy just bad rng I’m guessing?
@madcat3.0 whatever 🙄 I will continue to send some copper to the enemies.
You can just buy flechette from jaeger
Flechette is only available at Jaeger 3. This video tries to help people mainly with Jaeger 2
The nerf to flechette combined with the unrealistic tank armor shows lack of consistency and is not fun. Give me back old 38 pen flechette and 15 kills. Shotguns are fun but with shit ammo
everybody doing setup these days, good because it is usually grueling
