The shot gun pistol....what am I missing? My normal sort of game design intuition would tell me that the jist of a two shot super-close range pistol shotgun would be to get in really close and unload both clips into the head for a quick kill that requires extreme close range and good aim. But...testing in the firing range, it doesn't kill a dummy even if you pop both shots right in his noggin.What am I missing? What makes this gun not terrible?Or are there some guns that are terrible by design as part of the randomness of the whole things, like getting stuck with one of those is a bad thing that can happen?

@Jimithyashford So basically speaking, the mozambique is a switch out weapon, just how pistols behave in COD. However like stated you MUST have a hammerpoint hop up on it to be viable. I don't know your level of game knowledge so a hammerpoint hop up basically doubles damage to flesh for the Mozambique and p2020. P2020 is the preferred variant by most due to the extra range, rate of fire and magazine capacity however the bique can hit up to 100 at close range with the hop up.So basically shield break with main weapon, then switch to bique for the flesh kill.

That is a perfect explanation, thank you.

@DrenMadre @Jimithyashford 😱🤣

@SpyrosFPS As somebody who loves the bique....that right there was game goals, i'm going to be trying this for fun. 😛 Although i think that guys smurfing. Basically every enemies in default skins, his lifeline looks default and those biques were default. 😛@Koochi-Q i feel like you'll enjoy that clip. 😛

MEME gun with only exception on April 1st or hammer point.

Newbie: I don't understand the Mozambique

@Jimithyashford Its worst gun in game, but if you get hammerpoint, it can be very good if you have good aim

@Jimithyashford On a side note, if you haven't given it much thought i would look into learning recoil control on some of your preferred weapons. It's a really important step for progressing as a player in this game. 😛
There's a few good tutorial videos on youtube if you need an explanation.

Early game the Mozam can be pretty powerful in the right hands. It has a much better range and spread compared to the PK and Eva, so it can quickly take down a naked player with 3 shots or a player with a level 1 shield with a couple more shots. If you play it like a normal shotgun by popping in and out of cover you should be able to outplay a newish player. Trust me, it's possible.
Late game, and yes you'll need a hammerpoint, but damn you won't regret having that in your loadout. A HP Mozam can take down a fully shielded enemy if you can land all three shots, (2 to crack them, the last to finish) or just to switch to finish them off.
Want a really fun loadout? Run a Sentinal with plenty of batteries and a HP Mozam.

@Extremejinks Sounds pretty flawed that loadout lol, you aint gonna be sniping CQC as a new player lmao, and if you're sniping mid range the enemy has enough time to recharge their shield while you close in.
R301 is probably the most viable combo for a HP bique, as it gives you a mid to short range efficiency. 😛

@MandatoryIDtag Heck no my dude. I'll always run the Sentinel with a close/mid-range scope and use it as a shield cracker before switching to a fully loaded AR. I'll sometimes keep an 8x in my inventory if a long range battle occurs.
