Energy Shotgun
Weapon · WeaponShotgun0★A shotgun loaded with energy rounds. It cycles fast, and its close-range output is beyond anything conventional.
Energy Shotgun is 19th of 40 shotguns by attack, at 402 against the 1,400 of Prototype Shotgun.
No recipe takes it as an ingredient. Whatever you build is the finished article, so there is no reason to hoard spares.
Details
At 20 weight each it eats carry capacity fast, so bring a mount or park a chest nearby. At 2,061,660 gold it is worth real money to a merchant.

Where to Find Energy Shotgun
Energy Shotgun is not something you find lying around — you craft it, and the recipe is below.
Every Tier of Energy Shotgun
The same piece exists at 5 rarities, and the gap is not cosmetic: attack runs 402 to 482, a 1.2x swing. Which one you end up with is decided by the rarity of the schematic you built from, not by the recipe — so a legendary copy of this is worth more than the next item up built from a common one.
| Rarity | Item | Attack | Durability |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0★ | Energy Shotgun (this one) | 402 | 300 |
| 1★ | Energy Shotgun | 422 | 450 |
| 2★ | Energy Shotgun | 442 | 600 |
| 3★ | Energy Shotgun | 462 | 900 |
| 4★ | Energy Shotgun | 482 | 1200 |
Ammunition Energy Shotgun Uses
Energy Shotgun fires Energy Shotgun Ammo, and nothing else — running dry mid-fight is the usual way this weapon lets you down, so keep the recipe unlocked before you rely on it.
| Ammo | Yield | Craft cost |
|---|---|---|
 Energy Shotgun Ammo | ×10 | Bio Battery ×1, Hexolite ×2 |
Alternatives and Upgrades
Core Eject Shotgun matches it exactly at 402 attack — those two differ in what they resist and what they weigh, not in raw attack, so picking between them is a swap rather than an upgrade. The next real step is Energy Shotgun at 422; below it is Double-Barreled Shotgun at 399.
