This article is about the Renaissance Army shotgun. For the Fringe Settlers assault rifle, see Vepr.

The Vepr-12 is a shotgun that appears in Survarium.

Bakground

Early versions of the Vepr-12 were originally developed by the Izhmash Plant but production moved to the Molot-Weapons factory where the weapon went on to be redesigned and mass-produced. Like many other Molot products, the Vepr-12 is based on the RPK-74 and built around its heavy receiver. It was designed as a direct competitor to the popular Saiga-12 shotgun but more focused towards sport shooting and security purposes.

Overview

The Vepr-12 is one of the top-tier shotguns, available from the Renaissance Army at the seventh rank, "Captain". Its best aspect is its rate of fire, which is the highest in the shotgun category and affords it a tremendous damage per second output. In addition it has better than average accuracy (second only to the Saiga-12), good damage and a large magazine size. It features no significant downsides.

Vepr-12 Molot

The Vepr-12 Molot is a unique variant only available by purchasing it from the shop for 2,000. It differs from the Vepr-12 in that it is two levels lower (10) and has better accuracy (0.8) but has a slower aiming speed (0.3) and greater weight (3.5kg).

Like all premium weapons it also possesses bonus stats in the form of +10% silver received, +15% reload speed and +25% reliability. It features a spot-style camouflage pattern on the receiver, magazine and barrel in a dark brown and light green colour scheme. Interestingly the barrel is also significantly longer on this version, possibly as explanation for its greater accuracy.

Trivia

• In 0.28a, the Vepr-12 was changed to use a unique smallshot type which deals increased damage but costs more. This ammo type has a green shell casing in the lobby menu.
