Dreg Shotgunner[]

An Elite enemy armed with a powerful shotgun. Frequently found leading Dreg Stalker patrols, they are of little threat at long range but can do large amounts of damage to the player at short range. If forced into melee combat they will use their bayonet in an identical fashion to Scab Shooters, unlike Scab Shotgunners who pull out a secondary melee weapon instead.

They can be difficult to approach due to their high damage and knockback. They will not change to melee until a player is at point-blank range, which is quite dangerous at higher difficulties.

The enemy firing cue (flash and audio stinger) are not timed like other shooters. You should not dodge immediately on hearing/seeing the cue but instead immediately after, otherwise you will be shot just after your dodge completes.
