After you unlock Punisher, there is hardly any Shotgun worth having in Helldivers 2. However, one of the weapons, SG-8S Slugger, is something that you need to unlock if you want to progress through the Warbond Page. If you want to get the SG-8S Slugger in Helldivers 2, this guide will help you with the requirements needed to unlock the Shotgun.
The SG-8S Slugger Shotgun in Helldivers 2 (after NERF)
While it’s not the most powerful piece, there’s a reason why players should unlock this weapon sooner or later. While the SG-8S Slugger has stats that are quite similar to the Punisher, it’s significantly inferior in damage. Still, since this is the shotgun you’re looking for, this guide is all you need.
To get the SG-8S Slugger in Helldivers 2, players will need to purchase it on Warbond Page 8 by spending 60 Medals. There will be numerous items that you will need to purchase first in order to reach Page 8 of Warbond. While many of these items will be worth it, some are simply meant to be purchased to turn the page. While the SG-8S Slugger isn’t the best option among the Shotguns with Punisher, it makes sense to purchase it since you’ll want to turn the Warbond page.
At best, the SG-8S Slugger is a B Tier weapon, given its lower damage output. However, its stats are worth considering if you want to try out one of the easier mission difficulties in the game. There are a few easy ways to farm Warbond Medals, and if you're confused, check out this video below.
