The Striker is a versatile shotgun archetype designed to push the boundaries of traditional close-quarters combat. Available on the Echo 12, this build prioritizes accuracy and range to remain competitive at distances where other shotguns fail.
The Heavy Metal archetype is designed for players who want to dominate long-distance lanes through sustained suppression and precision. By improving recoil and bullet velocity on platforms like the MK.78 and XM325, this class excels at controlling the battlefield from a distance.
The Recon archetype is a specialized long-range configuration designed for holding strategic positions and winning distant gunfights. It optimizes assault rifles with enhanced stability, optics, and magazine capacity to dominate mid-to-long range lanes.
The Lockdown archetype is a defensive-focused configuration for the Sokol 545 designed to anchor positions. It balances the typical weight of an LMG with improved handling stats and stealth capabilities to dominate fixed lanes.
To maximize the Striker's potential, players should consistently aim down sights to tighten the pellet spread for more reliable one-shot potential. Utilize the improved strafe speed to remain a difficult target while engaging enemies from the edge of the shotgun's effective range.
