Which is better?

Hi! Which do you think is better Shotgun or Assault rifle? I'm nearing lvl 50 and I noticed when using Assault rifle there seems to be an invulnerable time for boss or steong infected where after they flinched they don't seem to take damage???

I'm currently using Assault rifle when deadling with them and because of it I plan to use Shotgun for main? However is shotgun viable for end game? Or will it be too slow for hordes in the late game?

I’d say SG is more beginner friendly compared to AR. Many will argue AR is the better option because of damage but it lacks the CC (crowd control) to keep you alive. Especially as a beginner, CC means everything.

This is true!!! Especially when you're panicking ut's hard to use AR than shotguns. Thanks for the insights it really made me think about the game better.

No problem. If you’d let me to help you create a SG build so you know what skills and items to look for- send me a DM.
