This is the best spread LBG, which also means it's the strongest LBG for normal usage.
It's got some pros and cons over HBG. The cons are huge, it is obviously less damage potential because LBG has only 4 mod slots vs 5 for HBG, it has a 4 round magazine with slow reload (with 3 levels of ammo up), when HBG has a much larger magazine, a scope for +30% more damage, more mod slots, and normal reload speed. So, it's not even close.
However, if you're just gonna slap 3 shields on a HBG, and not use the scope, you might find that this LBG is more mobile, and more to your liking due to the faster movement speed, and a roll that's quicker to recover. More importantly, you can use the Spread LBG and not look like a total bottom dwelling scrub for running no scope spread-shield. The spread LBG works very good with Impact and Evasion mantles, and also you can get evade window 5 as a free skill, and still get all your damage skills with the fatalis armor set, so it's pretty comfy, and easy to dodge or iframe attacks with. With the evasion mantle attack buff, you can easily hit mid 50s on spread ticks, or somewhere in the range of 375-400 per shot in some fights, which is still pretty good damage. You can take a huge dump on fights like Teostra/Lunastra/Kushala/Velkana/Kirin/Ruiner with spread LBG.

I use this as a spread LBG and wow does it feel nice to be able to move around while firing a shotgun.
The fatalis killer.
