“

Fully automatic fast firing Scatter Blaster, similar to an Auto Shotgun in distant galaxies. Deals considerable damage at close range, with moderate heat capacity and faster cool down speed than most auto shotguns

”

— In-Game Description

The BARM-ST12 Scatter Blaster is an Shotgun in Fortnite: Battle Royale that was added in Galactic Battle.

Functionality[]

The BARM-ST12 Scatter Blaster is a low damage, fast firing Shotgun with a bit of range. The weapon has infinite ammo but will overheat after firing a few shots and will need to cool down. The cooldown period can be manually entered by pressing the reload key after shooting for a bit.

The BARM-ST12 Scatter Blaster can continuously fire for 4.14 seconds or 9 shots before it overheats. This can be extended by waiting a bit between each shot.

The BARM-ST12 Scatter Blaster is a hitscan weapon, firing a spread of 5 short ranged bolts when both aiming down sights and hipfiring. Aiming down sights tightens the spread of bolts.

Strategy Guide[]

	This section outlines a strategy.
	Feel free to add tips, tricks and general advice about the topic.

Phasma's Blaster Medallion increases the amount of shots the BARM-ST12 Scatter Blaster can fire continuously and decreases its cooldown time.
The BARM-ST12 Scatter Blaster is best used in a similar manner to the Twinfire Auto Shotgun or Gatekeeper Shotgun, as it is most effective when very close to an opponent. Unlike the Twinfire Auto Shotgun however, the BARM-ST12 Scatter Blaster fires much less pellets per shot (5 compared to the Twinfire's 12), has a slightly slower fire rate, but a decently higher body and headshot damage.
The BARM-ST12 Scatter Blaster, in all rarities, is capable of eliminating an opponent with full shield in 2 headshots when playing Builds, and in Zero Build, is capable of doing so in all rarities above Common.

Counters[]

The slower fire rate and low pellet count of the BARM-ST12 Scatter Blaster can lead to it being somewhat inconsistent, so using a more consistent Shotgun such as the ACP Scatter Blaster or an SMG of sorts can be beneficial when engaging an opponent wielding it.
SMGs are especially effective against players using the BARM-ST12 Scatter Blaster, as it doesn't take many shots before it overheats, and has a somewhat slow cooldown time.
