This weapon's signature ability is "Thunderer", which grants full auto-fire right of the bat without needing to upgrade the weapon. However, it has a limited ammo capacity of 5 rounds until it can later be upgraded with "Return to Sender", which allows kills to replenish ammo directly to its magazine.<ref>[http://db.destinytracker.com/inventory/item/2344494718 '''DestinyTracker''' : ''The 4th Horseman'']</ref> The rate of fire is average, but Thunderer allows for high speed fire. However, this combo can empty the clip quickly. Combined with the low range, this shotgun takes work to master.
This weapon's signature ability is "Thunderer", which grants full auto-fire right of the bat without needing to upgrade the weapon. It is the fastest firing shotgun in the game, outpacing even [[Invective]], which also is fully automatic. This blindingly fast fire rate allows the player to deal massive damage in a short period of time. However, its limited magazine of 5 rounds hinders its burst damage capabilities until it can later be upgraded with "Return to Sender", which allows kills to replenish ammo directly to its magazine.<ref>[http://db.destinytracker.com/inventory/item/2344494718 '''DestinyTracker''' : ''The 4th Horseman'']</ref> Combined with the low range and slow reload speed, this shotgun takes work to master. But, if the wielder is fast enough to rush into close range and unleash all 5 shots in rapid succession, then this weapon will take down enemies very quickly.
