*One of the most dominating weapons in the Halo Trilogy, the Shotgun shows its most effective side in [[The Library (Level)|The Library]] in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' and in ''[[Sacred Icon (Level)|Sacred Icon]]'' in ''Halo 2'', where equipping one allows the user to plow through hordes of Flood forms. | *One of the most dominating weapons in the Halo Trilogy, the Shotgun shows its most effective side in [[The Library (Level)|The Library]] in ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' and in ''[[Sacred Icon (Level)|Sacred Icon]]'' in ''Halo 2'', where equipping one allows the user to plow through hordes of Flood forms. | ||

After each time | *In ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'', the user can perform what players call the "speed pump", or a "slam fire" to use the real-world term. In this method, the player must reload the shotgun almost instantly after firing each shot. After each time they repeats this procedure, the shotgun will be reloaded faster than the normal rate. As a result, the shotgun will inflict a seemingly unstoppable barrage of projectiles until there are no longer any shells left to spare. This method is extremely useful in the level, [[The Library (Level)|The Library]], as well as the remainder of the levels after it. | ||
*This weapon is easily the best choice in the game for taking out powerful enemies such as groups of [[Flood Combat Forms]], [[Elites]], and [[Brutes]]. Even on ''Halo: Combat Evolved'' [[Heroic]] difficulty, it is possible to take out shielded Elites with as few as two rounds, and only on [[Legendary]] do the Flood become capable of surviving a direct hit from the shotgun. | *This weapon is easily the best choice in the game for taking out powerful enemies such as groups of [[Flood Combat Forms]], [[Elites]], and [[Brutes]].

*Brutes, [[Councilor]]s and [[Ultra Elites]] are the only enemy that can survive a point blank shotgun blast on Normal difficulty in ''Halo 2''. Hunters can be killed by shooting directly into the exposed orange [[Lekgolo]]. However, on Legendary difficulty, any rank higher than a [[Minor Elite]]'s shielding and health can withstand a point blank shotgun blast. Beware, for the [[Flood]] can wield shotguns to devastating effect, since they have an extremely long jumping range. | *Brutes, [[Councilor]]s and [[Ultra Elites]] are the only enemy that can survive a point blank shotgun blast on Normal difficulty in ''Halo 2''.
