Thats funny, I almost exclusively use shotguns. I find the assault rifles to weak. I really liked the sniper rifle but it's just too weak for when things get in close. I've started using the quasar as a support weapon so that forces me to rely heavily on my primary as I have to wait so long for it to fire and "reload".

What do you usually fight with the shotguns? I really want to like the shotguns, but every time it leads to more deaths. The only support gun that seems to kill things easily for me is the Scythe.

Incendiary breaker puts in a ton of work against bugs

Personally I like the Punisher's stagger effect, especially on berserkers. I've heard people use it to stop hunters and spewers too. But I've never played on higher difficulty levels.
