Scattershot

The Scattershot is one of three ammunition types compatible with the Catapult and is the primary area of effect damage ammunition type for the Catapult siege weapon. Facepunch added this ammunition type into the game with the Primitive Update in February 2025.

The Scattershot ammunition is known for its capacity to eliminate multiple enemy players at once, causing significant AoE damage anywhere it lands. It can be considered the primitive equivalent of High Velocity Rockets, although it cannot damage stone or metal structures.

In the event that the in-use Catapult is destroyed, so too is the raider’s capacity to use this ammunition. On the bright side, it is the cheapest Catapult ammunition type to craft.
