Door Knocker (Double-Barrel Shotgun)
*“When you really, really want the door open.”*

Overview[edit]

The Door Knocker is a double-barrel shotgun designed for extreme close-range carnage. With only two shells before reloading, it punishes careless aim, but each shot delivers devastating damage. It’s a favourite for players who enjoy risky, in-your-face gameplay.

Beast Upgrades[edit]

  • House Flipper – More pellets per blast and faster reload speed.
  • Neighbour Eraser – Stronger shots with wider damage potential; still brutally short-ranged.
  • Open-Plan Conversion – Final form; ludicrous pellet count and damage, capable of vaporising whole groups in one pull of the trigger.

Tips[edit]

  • Perfect for camping doorways and chokepoints.
  • Reload discipline is critical.
  • Devestating to individual targets at close range. Effective against hordes at long range.

Trivia[edit]

  • Playtesters often paired it with a reliable SMG or AR to cover mid-range weaknesses.
  • The Beast upgrade names were taken from running gags about home renovation shows.
