This mod makes the M90A Shotgun accurate to how I remember it from my several playthroughs of Halo 3: ODST. Its shells now chew through medium armor just like they're supposed to, it carries ammo on par with other shotguns in Helldivers 2 and possesses the wide, extreme close-range spread the M90 is infamous for.

- Armor penetration increased from Light to Medium (direct, slight angle and large angle hits; extreme angle stays unarmored)
- Spread increased from 120/100 to 260/260
- Spare shells increased from 44 to 60 (supply drops refill all 60)
- Starting shells increased from 24 to 40

It now holds a total combat load of 66 shells.

This one is actually still a little off, as noted by Maxwellian01, so I'm changing the title to reflect that. I've released an update with a better version, although it is technically a downgrade from this one, so I'm leaving this one up.

Made with great help from my friend Claude.

Actually to be fully lore accurate while remaining balanced, I recommend an alternate version: medium pen, 15 pellets per shell, 41 damage per pellet, 21 durable damage per pellet, 30 starting shells, 48 shells reserve maximum capacity. this makes it distinct from the sweeper and double freedom without stepping on either weapon's toes and it also makes the shells have the correct number of pellets which is 15, not the 11 in the version Arrowhead made.

i like your mods as they arent unbalanced and are perfect fix AH should have made long ago.

could you also take a look at defoliation tool, and breach hammer ? (more damage for the first, and more ammo for the latter)

any way you could change it so that it actually reflects the pen/stat changes in game?

You're right, I completely forgot about the pellet count. I'll publish a separate version.

lore accurate m6c next pls, good work on the mods bro
There is a mod that makes it AP4, and in my opinion that is accurate enough, unless there's something I'm missing.
