It is very effective against hordes of common enemies such as Kleer Skeletons, as the projectiles fired from the Devastator can pierce through several enemies at once.It is best to first fire a fully charged cannonball at the Khnum and then finish it off with the Devastator. The Devastator is somewhat effective against Khnums, as it takes at least 10 shots to kill one.
As ammunition isn't always in abundance, it is best to use the weapon against tougher enemies.It also works very well against Major Bio-mechanoids, Minor Bio-mechanoids and Scrapjacks at long distances. The Devastator is extremely effective against Technopolyp helicopters, as it can take one down in about five hits and its projectiles move fast enough that the helicopter can't dodge.In Serious Sam 4, the Devastator is first obtained in One for the Road. In Serious Sam VR: The Last Hope, the Devastator can be purchased from the weapon menu, along with ammo. In Serious Sam's Bogus Detour, the weapon first appears in Trouble in Troy. In Serious Sam 3 and Serious Sam 3 VR: BFE, the Devastator first appears in Unearthing the Sun, but can be acquired earlier in The Silent Riddler via a secret.

It can carry up to 20 or 25 rounds (depending on the game it appears in), which come in drum magazines. This effect is enhanced by the Autoshotgun's standard cartridges, which contain high-piercing heavy-explosive (HPHE) rounds which are designed to pierce smaller hostiles and deliver an additional burst of fragmentation damage upon impact with larger foes.īeing an automatic shotgun, the Devastator does not need to be pumped each time a round is fired, unlike the 12 Gauge Pump-Action Shotgun.
The state-of-the-art firing mechanism allows for exit velocities great enough to literally punch through many smaller targets.
The original 1972 Maxwell Atchisson design has been heavily modified over the last 150 years, resulting in a compact, fast weapon with a lot of stopping power. The automatic 24-gauge shotgun is often referred to as the 'Devastator' due to the effect that it can have on a crowded battlefield if fired continuously over a prolonged period of time.
