Warframe Wiki Shotgun Mods

After doing the comprehensive guide on Kitguns and how to build one, this one will focus on the best ones out there. As mentioned in the original article, there are over 256 combinations to choose from, so finding the right one for a beginner is going to be difficult.

Blaze is a nightmare Mod I like, which gives you 60% damage plus 60% heat and thats nice. Chilling reload, another nightmare mod, is worth a look at. It drops from high level nightmare missions, which are tough, but easy to master with a squad. The dual stat mods for shotgun are also pretty decent. Hell's Chamber is a mod that increases the Multishot percentage of Shotguns. Add a photo to this gallery.

This article will cover the best guns for each chamber, the mod configuration and stats altogether. Continue reading to find out.

Here’s an excerpt from the main article

Finding The Right Build

All Kitguns comprises three parts; Chamber, Grip and the Loader. Below are the number of these things available in the game:

  • Chambers: 4
  • Grips: 4
  • Loaders: 16

These things can make up to 256 combinations that you can try, with adjustment of each and everything. From crit to stats, from attack speed to reload speed. Let’s understand what all of these things do to your weapons

  • Chambers: The chamber defines how the weapon fires, or the firing style
  • Grips: Grips affect important stats such as range, rate-of-fire, and damage
  • Loaders: These affect the status chance, crit chance, magazine size and reload speed of a gun.

We’ve already mentioned the best and the right builds that you can go for already in the article below. But if you are looking for configurations, head to this huge kitguns document.

Warframe Wiki Shotgun Mods

Mod Configuration

  • Hornet Strike
  • Primed Pistol Gambit
  • Primed Target Cracker
  • Barrel Diffusion
  • Lethal Torrent
  • Jolt
  • Pistol Pestilence
  • Hydraulic Crosshairs

This weapon deals good damage and also has AOE since it’s an explosive semi-auto. Always shoot someone in/around the crowd so the blasts take a couple of enemies with them.

P.S. Anything that uses Killstream will always have a high critical chance.

I will recommend you to run critical + status builds since those are the best end-game weapons. The ones mentioned in the article should be good enough for almost Level 100+ content. Haze and Rattleguts both can be built as hybrid weapons for all content, including high-tier end-game.
