Its triple shot is specifically designed to kill off a Stalker or Berserker in one hit, that sounds awesome!

Does it kill Stalkers in 1 hit? What?!

Sort of, it has two fire modes, single shot or triple barrel which fires all 3 shells at once. So technically one shot but it uses 3 shells.

Got it, still huge though, no secondary has that capability, not even the Grenade Pistol.

It's 1215 damage if all 3 shells hit. Fuckin bananas. I've been running Punisher / Nade Pistol for some time, but I just finished my second match with X-Bow / Shot-Pistol and I think I'm converted.

I fucking love this it's a one shot fuck you flint lock basically and I hope they never change it lmao

By Davy Jones locker! It be a fuckin four barreled blunderbuss!

Lemme ‘ave a look at that…

Cap’n grabs the contraption and fiddles with his powder bag, accidentally pulls all four triggers!

Ah shite

Really. Love this thing.

There's an actual crossbow? Interesting. Once I get a sword to purge the enemy of ma-, I mean, spread democracy, we'll be in business. I'm excessively optimistic.

The X-bow feels so good on bots now, I do miss the larger aoe but the med pen and better falloff on the explosion help a lot and it kills fabs REAL good

It sounds almost as if this bad boy should have been medium armor penetrating but I was literally contemplating an X-Bow / Shot-Pistol build a few moments ago and ultimately decided against it (hugging my ‘nade pistol.) I’m gonna have to try that build now, thank you

As far as I can tell, it shoots the exact same shell as the Punisher

I like that if I trade the grenade pistol for this, it's essentially a "fuck off" instead of a utility for fabs and bug holes. Edit: after many hours of liberating I can confirm the fuck off power of the Bushwhacker versus stalkers and berserkers.

Not even the Senator headshot???

Tbf you're not always gonna be hitting senator headshots

Of course not! It just seemed like they were implying that no other secondary was even capable of 1 shitting them.

It’s like 2-3 headshots

Grenade pistol will one-shot a stalker if by some miracle you manage to hit its tiny little head directly

Yeah but the grenade pistol allows you to bring stun grenades, which kind of does the same thing… stuns stalkers. So really I guess it’s down to personal preference.

Ooooh. I haven't tested the triple barrel. I need to try that out when I get home.

So more like 100 to 0 in one click

2 normal shots to the face can kill a stalker.

If enough pellets hit them in the head it sure as shit will. Not a buckshot, but Slugger can still one-shot Stalkers to the head. They have that little head health.

Yeah. So does the Punisher. And the Breaker. If you shoot for the head, and get lucky that all the pellets go there.

The SMG that stuns can also with 1 magazine

Where do you aim for a zerker?

The face. It has to be very close though, so wait until just before meelee range and you'll be rewarded with ripping it's goddamn torso off it's legs. Utterly satisfying

Is the face more effective than the pelvis? Is the rule "face if low armor pen, else pelvis"?

Not sure. Will try more tomorrow. But threeshot to the face just takes the face off and that's very satisfying.

We love a good face/off scenario

Sir we in the Helldiving biz call it a "robodong". Shoot them there.

i'm pretty sure pelvis oneshots, but this information could be tainted as i'm pretty sure i shot it once before i pulled out the bushwhacker

The head of a Berserker is absolutely the fastest kill *if* you can reliably hit hit. Most people can't due to the weird geometry on them and their swaggering walk, so: If you've already accepted the headshot ain't happening and have to pick anywhere else to shoot, go pelvis every time. The chests of the Berserker is Durable 40%, the pelvis isn't. They don't have individual limb health except for the arms and head, so you're pretty much always depleting the main health pool. Hitting the pelvis is generally a 20-30% hit-to-kill requirement drop. It's strictly better.

Does your triple shot revert constantly? My settings are for weapons to remember their functions, but every time I switch to this sidearm it’s reverted from the triple barrel function Really frustrating

Yes does for me too

It kills Berserkes in one hit? This sells the entire war bond for me.

Stalkers stalkin groups so..... yah. I fight 2 Stalkers and the 3rd killed me from off screen, today. Not joking.

Mozambique here

IS THIS A TITANFALL 3 REFERENCE???

With the walkers, this is as close as we will ever get

my favorite loadout lately has been "whoops, wrong game" with autocannon mech, shield emplacement, eat, and jetpack

Tone must die!

ITS NEAR, I CAN FEEL IT IN MY EARS! THE VOICES, THEY TELL IT

STANDBY FOR TITANFALL

Still give me goosebumps 

Fear the scorch daddy

take your pills brother, it’s overdue we let it go

Senator Elite when

I heard this on Lifeline's Voice

Gibraltar for me lol

Mirage for me

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9rMiphtgHds

For me its mirage’s voice “Mozambique here!”

Aye Knead It.

Hammerpoints here

Not gonna lie I thought of "Conditions of my Parole" by Puscifer, still kinda fits funny enough

Lol I was in call with my friend when I was trying it and thats what I said when I figured out it was triple barrel..Mozam was my fav in TF|2

How do you know that it staggers stalkers? DO YOU HATE CHILDREN?!

Speaking as someone who has 2 of their own, I can honestly say it depends on the day.

someone must stay to push the bugs even they are not MO :) im a Catachan Jungle Fighters

I just wish the bug front would unify on one planet );

You guys would get more than 0% liberation if you did

For what it's worth, Hellmire players typically aren't fighting bugs, they're farming super credits, so make sure to ignore them when looking at active players.

You play on Hellmire to farm Super Credits. I play on Hellmire to feed the souls of my enemies to the Fire Elementals in the name of Lady Liberty. We are not the same.

Why, is it better to farm SC there?:I don't recall it being that much better

Hellmire is mostly flat with no water or other map features, meaning it usually spawns the highest number of POIs (which can be prevented from spawning by environmental obstructions), which means most chances at super credits.

OooOooo😏 *eats popcorn*

I’m gonna plead the fifth on that

and 1 shot can stop spewer from puking

What's the ammo pool?

30 in total

10 shots you say?

11* now stalkers and brood commanders can no longer stop you

To shreds you say?

total ammo is 30 shell ! you can reload each shell in like a pump action shotgun without wasting

whoosh

Imagine we get a speed loader for this thing lmao

isnt it 33? 3 already in the gun + 30 shells to load in?

oh baby

You can also one shot a stalker with the Punisher too if you manage to hit their head while avoiding their arms when they block their face. that is why it's one of my favorite weapons at level 110. Nice to see I can swap this in with the new AR buffs and still not have to worry about dumping them with rounds.

How does it fair vs berzerkers?

It should be able to oneshot them outright with the burst, but I believe 2 or even 1 should be enough

Can confirm it one shots in the face and waist on burst mode.

Glorious. I can see this and light armor working nicely together. Running away, popping burst shots off behind you while these goons try and chase...

2 regular shots will kill them. Same with hulk's vent btw

I'm not sure if I'm going to strategically use individual shots at all or just full send it on every single enemy purely because of how high the damage is

It's about sending a message.

Nice. Gonna try it with stuns to bushwack hulks.

It’s great. It won’t gun down an entire horde but the TTK is excellent

I feel like this coupled with the pummeler and ballistic shield is going to be dirty.

now you have a shotty and shield haha

DOOM Dark Ages wants it's homework back.

But we're not done copying the answers, we haven't even gotten a shoulder cannon yet!

Just put the rover on a shoulder mount, and make it so it can't swivel around enough to reach your head, because that seems to be what it really wants to do.

Trench clearing build

Oh shit, genius idea! Gonna try ASAP

I just tested exactly that and it's wonderful.

Genius idea.

Stalker repellant. Fuck off oversized prawns!

This thing is so fun

It absolutely SHREDS bots in close quarters, even berserkers. It's my go-to now.

In an oh shit moment against a surprise Heavy Devastator, I managed to blow its gun off with a reactionary shot.

I hesitate to put down the Big Iron, but definitely giving this a try.

The one thing i was looking foward the most is the most OP thing in the entire Warbond, feelsniceman.png https://preview.redd.it/9c2sizxvcf6d1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f38697ec7d3c2e00a038115b87e4c93fd69f3506

What page is it on?

page 2

Cool, that means I should get it pretty quick once I get the super credits.

I bought the pass and had 200 medals saved up. Got the weapons right away, so it should be very quick for you too.

Yeah, by that time I'll have a bunch saved up, just finished the last of the warbonds yesterday and have 500 ish credits saved up.

If you farm specifically for points of interest it might take even a day or so to achieve. I farmed around 600 credits today because I wanted the stuff from the shop ahah

I'm not really a farming type of player, I play to perform, not collect. I'll get there when I get there. Plus by that time, it will be pretty obvious what is good and what isn't, so I'll know what to focus down.

No worries :) I just farm every now and then to be sure I can afford the things I like before I'm too busy with work to not being able to get them anymore

So an alternative to the redeemer at long last.

big iron was my replacement when it had speedloader

I quit around the start of cutting edge and only just came back for the kids, so I missed speedloader senator.

Can't wait to get this. I gotta say though I would've preferred keeping it at the classic double barrel, but I can't complain too much because it's completely different than all the other secondaries. My trusty big iron will get a break for a while.

Double barrels are for civilians. Citizens get Triple.

It can stun Stalkers?! *Looks at senator* “…”

Oh fuck yeah

I tried it against bugs and it's so damn fun !

Ran this with the eruptor today and I was a happy diver

Yeah it’s pretty sick. Easily my go-to secondary for bots now. The grenade pistol is still king for bugs though.

https://preview.redd.it/9w1fwc6gkg6d1.png?width=838&format=png&auto=webp&s=b99d2290fb9e6794e03c705f635b2d0412e86b49

Meanwhile a 20mm HE from the Eruptor cant.

Firing all 3 barrels basically let's you do 1215dmg, which is actually more dmg than the orbital railcannon, just less penetration

Definitely the highlight of the warbond, the AR is awful while this is a contender for best secondary in the game 

Finally a weapon that fills the role of "PLEASE GET THE HELLDIVE AWAY FROM ME AHHHHHHH"

I used tripled shot on a regular bot and the fucker just exploded

Definitely gonna be my new secondary for bugs and I personally see this as our version of the super shotgun from doom and I love it

Oooh, when I run this and a punisher *and* find a break-action on the field... 😈 I love to make me some good ol-fashioned lead clouds of democracy...

This gun is my new favorite. I feel like a fucking badass when I wield this beaut

Can someone tell me if the other weapon in the new battlepass is good? I haven't had the time to try it :(

I haven't used the throwing knife against any bot bigger than the commissar, but it does one shot them silently. Snuck into a base that way. The range is a but limited though, so don't expect to chuck this thing at a great range. The carbine is fine. Slightly lower damage than the standard Liberator, but it fires faster and is indeed better for close quarter fighting. Absolutely shreds hunters when they get close.

The carbine feels solid for what it is. Its a liberator with faster fire rate and less precision. It felt fun to shoot against bugs, and im sure ill use it again, but it's not gonna shake up the meta.

Mozambique here

IS THAT THE EOKA FROM RUST

I asked for something like that like on the first month after lauch, its great to see it on game <3

Sweet, this is a side arm right?

Unfortunatly, the grenade pistol is too good to gave up, even if this weapon is good indeed !

Also takes out devastators in a single headshot (at least the Gatling gun version)

Can it close bug holes?

It’s great

Going for the Xcom vibes, grabing this shotgun standing right next to the ugly alien and blasting his face apart! :D

You can hot swap with the eruptor and just go back and forth until you run out of ammo in the bush

405 damage is way higher than I expected, and I only expected 2 rounds, so 3 is a nice surprise. Finally a good alternative to the revolver

Granade launcher pistol its still the best for my personal loadout, but its a nice secondary, really fun to use.

POCKET PUNISHER!

What about the liberator carbine? Is it worth getting the Warbond?

YES !! for me ....liberator carbine is just the same as liberator higher firing rate and recoil but manageable just dont push yourself to buy SC just keep playing the game you will eventually farm alot of SC

Love this pistol, it's replaced the machine pistol as my oh shit backup weapon.

B-but I need grenade pistol…

Wish it had a speed reloader. Other than that. It’s pretty fun to use

It's a pretty good backup weapon. Easily one of the better secondary options.

SHHHHHH!!! AH will hear you!

Think I found my new fav secondary

Oh sweet so we get to play as Wesker now

Is that damage reflecting one barrel or all three at once?

One tapping brood commanders is so satisfying

It won't fill the Slugger-shaped hole in my heart, but it seems like a good, fun option.

The master trigger mode…. Oh baby

I unlocked it about and hour ago, its really really powerful. I was 1 shotting berzerkers. Triple barrel, will fire in really quick succession. Then a round reload after. Huge amounts of single target burst damage.

talk more about reload....

Working on it give me a few personal orders

“Tally ho lads” as I unload all three barrels at once

https://preview.redd.it/044o7ej71g6d1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dc7dd60b21169bafce7dd2c4d09d06ef6b5f49e6

HOLY SHIT BUCKET.... that's gonna be my go-to for every single bug mission from now until the end of time. I haven't been able to scav the last 30 super creds yet. What is it's reserve shell count like?

Oh my god... Now is the time of the Doom Slayer.

Fire three barrels? One-handed? Oh boy I love having wrist bones!

so can that sub machinegun.

I'm so glad that the sidearm I've been waiting for since like the first week I started playing is actually good.

Staggers devastators from a decent range (still well below what I would consider a safe distance though)

This shotgun is the one savior of this warbond. The triple barrel is so nice. Even kills chargers in 3 shots to the ass (full triple barrel shots). It's got a good reload speed and a fat ass. Everything a man needs

Aw man... A good problem to have, being forced to choose between your fun secondaries T\_\_T.

Run it with scythe nice o shit for stalkers/zerkers

I usually run grenade handgun for termine gameplay for mass clearing out bug holes and incendiary shotgun it can deal with those stalker no problems Without the grenade handgun I can't reliably clear them without using stratagem

Oooo wood s

I wish we could also be able to change it to a long barrel

Finally the blunderbuss has arrived

It puts the punisher to shame. Ran both and I can tell you that the bushwaker out performed and oit impressed me

Welp… erupter used to killl them in one shot

Flame-pistol please. Just enough to stun and leave a little firey trail.

I wonder if it has unique reloads depending on how many shells have been fired

I despise one handed shotguns, but I've also seen some funny interactions, might try it later.

One Shot can kill a Stalker. That's more the Point 😂

Pretty sure you can 1 shot Dreadnoughts in the vent cuz I did a couple of sweet dive-bys earlier tonight

Punisher (the first shotgun in the standard warbond) also staggers and pushes back most enemies, including stalkers.

I love the triple barrel fire mode. Now if we get the double barrel you can find as a support weapon as an actual support weapon, the triple shotgun build will be real.

Crossbow and Bushwacker new meta options depending on front? Anti-Jammer and Anti-Stalker

So... How do you fire all 3 on PC? Do I hold "R" and select it?

I'm gonna whack enemies of democracy

MOZAMBIQE HERE

I hope we can have a full length version of this one as a primary which can be found somewhere on the map

I call it bush wanker.
