The M45D Shotgun, according to 343 industries employee Chris King, has ''"a lot longer range now, less damage falloff, and is quite a bit more powerful than say the Reach version overall."'' In terms of relative firepower, the shotgun is a one-shot kill weapon and should be used for close encounters. It is notable for penetrating enemy shields, particularly [[Sangheili|Elites]], and it takes only two shots to kill a [[Promethean Knight]]. <ref name="bulle"/> | The M45D Shotgun, according to 343 industries employee Chris King, has ''"a lot longer range now, less damage falloff, and is quite a bit more powerful than say the Reach version overall."''

The M45D operates similarly to its Halo 4 counterpart, with a few additions; like all weapons in Halo 5, it can be "smart scoped" to increase its accuracy (in this case, tightening its pellet spread with a trade off of increased recoil), and its tactical flashlight (previously just an ascetic part of the weapons design) is continuously on. It is confirmed as the preferred weapon of Kelly-087. | The M45D operates similarly to its Halo 4 counterpart, with a few additions; like all weapons in [[Halo 5]], it can be "smart scoped" to increase its accuracy (in this case, tightening its pellet spread with a trade off of increased recoil), and its tactical flashlight (previously just an ascetic part of the weapons design) is continuously on.
