Tips & tricks[]
- Just like most of 12-gauge shotguns, the M870 lacks good range. It is best used during night combat by camouflaged mercs with Sneaky trait and/or Agility at least 80, so they can approach the enemy from behind and exploit the weapon's power.
- Another use is to deploy the Remington against Bloodcats. Since the felines lack a ranged attack, two rested and not encumbered mercs with Remington shotguns have chances of dispatching a single Bloodcat before it comes too close. The main drawback of this tactics is that Bloodcats usually attack in packs, therefore assault rifles with HP ammunition perform better.
