Yeah, I completely agree. The riot is the best for shields and what not, but I still stick with my sniper (can’t wait for that vid) and the SG-09. I never really played with the striker. I think I got it for the achievement honestly! Great vid as always! Hoping you’re feeling better!
The riot gun has been one of the best shotguns ever since the OG RE 4; it's also the highest DMG output in RE as well so I imagine if they remake 5 the riot gun will likely be the most powerful in the shotgun class
OG Sticker because of DITMAN glitch for insane movement, knife, firing and reload speed for any weapon Remake Riot because it’s an absolute powerhouse and you get it much easier in the remake than in the OG
@@MaxxD86👆🏻 Exactly because of the Ditman glitch, which is like an exclusive “upglitch” for the Striker in OG RE4; that’s why the Striker charm exists that pays homage with its player speed boost in the remake. 🏃🏼💨
I love watching people on youtube who innovate crafty methods of beating this game using the sg09, bolt action, knives, stealth. But im on console and, since the game was released, I cannot handle the blum when aiming with the bolt action. The sg09 I can handle decently but without the lazer sight the blum can be hell (and i always save those spinels for a ticket anyway). I think aiming the bolt action with the controller AND the blum makes shotguns MUCH more necessary in the overall game.
Haven't played Resident Evil for over a decade, but I went on Xbox pass and saw this game on sale for $29.99 complete with all the DLC. So I couldn't pass it up. A little late to the party , but nevertheless i'm here.
Thank you, sir. Currently making my way through the castle on my first play through, not trying to get any special rankings at this time.Just simply trying to beat the game lol
Correction, Sniper Rifles aren't the strongest weapons in the game (excluded Rocket Launchers of course) Springfield: 10.6 base damage (fully maxed out + x2 exclusive multiplier) and 31.8 damage on weak points. Rifle critical hits multiplies the damage by x1.5 which brings it to 47.7 total power. Broken Butterfly: 40.5 base damage (again, full upgrade + x1.5 exclusive) with a x2 multiplier when critical strike meaning 81 total power. Killer 7: 28 base damage, add the x2 critical multiplier and this bad boy does 56 damage 30% of the time. Magnums should be only used on: - Garradors (not recommended but that's fine) - Leader Zealots (Red Robe) - Dogs with Plaga (Only because of how easily you can lose HP and how rare they are, meaning a Magnum shot usually won't ammo starve you and it'll probably save you an Herb) - Verdugo (Hands down #1 reason to have a Magnum, you can't have a fair fight with him and using a Rocket Launcher is out of the question imo) - Double El Gigante - Salazar - Brutes (Both types) - Iron Maidens (When he starts "screaming" and leaning forward, one bullet in the brain and bye bye) - Krauser - Saddler If you use it correctly you should NEVER run out of Magnum ammo and it makes it a whooole lot easier on your Rifle ammo management. This isn't an answer to anything btw I just felt like sharing. :D When it comes to the shotgun it's only my opinion but I only see it as a "free get out of jail" card you can quickly and effectively use in desperate moments, this is an amazing tool for an instant stun + big damage which could save you a Herb or two. Maybe that's what the devs also had in mind hence the lack of ammo throughout the game. :P Also it might be very nitpicky but a point blank body shot (or groin) with a shotgun could be more effective than a headshot because the Ganado can get ripped in half or lose a leg meaning it can't spawn a plaga. Though it can be debatable as I'm not sure if you can dismember a guaranteed plaga ganados. Also there is nothing wrong with headshots lol
As good as the Riot Gun is if you are playing VR and have the Skull Shaker it’s the best in my opinion due to the fact you can one hand flip it even though its just a worse Riotgun the cool factor well justifies it
Just finished the game today in the morning and got an S+ on professional because of your guide ! SO I THANK YOU MY FRIEND ❤
❤️
Riotgun is the most accurate shotgun because the weapon actually gives you longer range!
the best and my favorite gun in the game!
Riotgun deserves this video. I was really surprised how much better it was than the W-870 in Professional. Thanks Neon!
Yay

That short cut you were trying to do with the flash grenade got patched I think.

I love the W-870, the pump action is just so satisfying. Riot gun is easily the best though imo
OG Striker.
Remake Riot Gun.
Explain
@NeonSlice explain what? In OG RE4 the best is the striker and in the remake is the riot gun as you say

Welcome! Lots of good videos and full guides here

Enjoy! It's a wonderful game 😊
We already knew this though. From Day 1 the Riotgun has been the known best shotgun, and one of the best guns overall in the game; extremely OP
How much to finish playing "The Evil within 2"?
150
@NeonSlice if nobody else does the donation we would do it before or after the month ends.
