📋 About This Mod
You ever realize how ass the base shotgun is in this game? It can't even take out zombies and imps in one hit without being right in their faces, and isn't really even consistent at staggering them. An absolute bastardization of its classic Doom counterpart, one of the most reliable and iconic weapons of the game which held its niche against the Super Shotgun with its higher rate of fire and effective range. This mod aims to restore some of its former glory.
Decreased horizontal spread on primary fire
Slightly increased vertical spread on primary fire
Reduced rate of damage falloff
Increased damage against various fodder enemies
Reduced rate of damage falloff
The Combat Shotgun is now effective from a much greater range and should be able to 1-shot any fodder enemies (besides the Mecha Zombies, those guys are tough!) as long as they fully overlap with the reticle, or stagger them consistently if you shoot at their feet. It's still outclassed by the SSG in raw firepower, but should now be better at serving its niche and feel much less dissapointing to use.
Revitalized Shotgun is a weapon mod for Doom that improves the Combat Shotgun's performance, making it closer to its classic counterpart, and also tweaks the Full Auto weapon. With 17 endorsements and 361 downloads, it's a small but focused balance mod for players who want a more traditional shotgun feel.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Directly addresses a common complaint about the Combat Shotgun's effectiveness
- Also tweaks Full Auto, adding extra value for players who use that weapon
- Lightweight mod with a clear purpose — no bloat, just balance changes
⚠️ Cons
- Low endorsement count (17) suggests it's not widely tested or community-vetted
