The DB12 – Backfire, an epic grade weapon from the Shotgun family, is a standout choice with its impressive stats. Boasting a base damage of 49×5, a fire rate of 105, and a magazine capacity of 12, this shotgun is equipped with a unique ability known as "Frost Vortex." This ability generates an AOE area within a 4.5m radius, trapping enemies and dealing 30% Psi Intensity Status Damage per second for 4 seconds. Additionally, the DB12 – Backfire offers multiple passive abilities that activate under specific conditions:

  • Hit the enemy 5 times to trigger Frost Vortex.
  • After hitting enemies inside the Frost Vortex once, the enemy will be Frozen for 3 seconds (with a 4-second cooldown, during which they cannot be frozen again).
  • When hitting Frozen enemies, damage increases by 60%.

For an enhanced gaming experience, consider playing *Once Human* on a larger screen using BlueStacks on your PC or Laptop, along with your keyboard and mouse. This setup can offer smoother gameplay and more precise control, making your survival journey in this post-apocalyptic world even more immersive.
