Description: Overall statistics this is a very average combat shotgun. As a 'shugthrower' it may even be considered primitive. The company was confident there was still a place for such weapons though. They filled a few roles blasters failed at. Primarily penetrating energy shields and their effectiveness against Force Users. The weapons stopping power is also immaculate. Taking down charging enemies outside of heavy armor with little worry of them making it to the user. Using such power in close quarters fighting is where this weapon excels at.
Where the Eliminator falls short is in long range combat. Which it is rendered mostly useless. Though specialty ammunition can increase the effective range a few meters. Heavily armored foes also prove problematic with increasing range. With more and more specialty metals like Beskar and Phrik being worn by combatants. Regular shells won't cut it. Which is why DSA will introduce specialty shells for this model to help tough enemies.
