What perks affect shotguns in Fallout 4?
Shotguns in Fallout 4 can become super powerful with the right perks. The key perks to focus on are Rifleman, which increases the damage of non-automatic rifles and shotguns, Bloody Mess for that extra damage across the board and a chance to make your enemies explode into a gory red paste, and Gun Nut for upgrading your shotgun to its max potential. Don't forget to aim for those criticals for massive damage!

Rifleman perk, hands down. It not only boosts your damage but makes those shotguns even more deadly at range. Who needs a sniper when you have a shotgun with Rifleman, am I right?
Honestly, just get Gun Nut and mod your shotgun to oblivion. The other perks are nice, but a well-modded shotgun can carry you through the whole game.
