pandapaxxy (PvP / Controller): Recommended MW: Range. Pinpoint Slug() Arc Shotgun Special Ammo. "In PvP you can roll with two different rolls, Threat Detector and Opening Shot are going to be the best perks to look for. Slickdraw makes a return similar to Bite of the Fox for being able to invest entirely into range. Either through Iron Reach and any range boosting mag perk, or Opening Shot. Range Masterwork is helpful but not required. Keep an eye out for this shotgun if you like pinpoint slug shotguns."
