Sawed-Off

-

• The Sawed-Off is in the SHOTGUN gun class , and as such benefits from the Shotgun Affinity synergy. This also means that, according to the rules of how loot is distributed, holding the Sawed-Off makes finding other SHOTGUN type weapons more rare. It may be in the player's best interests to drop the Sawed-Off to increase their chances of finding a different, better shotgun.
• Notably, this makes it the only starting weapon to technically be part of a synergy.

• The animations of the Sawed-Off are physically inconsistent, with empty shells being ejected both on reload and the chambering of each new round.
• The line " No Butts About It " is a pun on the 'butt' or end of the stock of the gun being removed (sawed off in this case). It might also be a play on the phrase "no buts."
• Despite its description implying the only difference between the Sawed-Off and the [Regular Shotgun] is the former has more spread than the latter, they actually have several different stats.
