Shotgun

Close-range upgrade with pellet spread.

An early in-match upgrade with pellet spread, effective at close range against grouped monkeys. Community guides recommend the shotgun as a strong first purchase for dealing with dense clusters before saving for heavier weapons. Damage falls off sharply at range, so positioning matters: stay near chokepoints where monkeys funnel into tight groups for maximum pellet coverage.
