High-powered but low magazine capacity

High power but low magazine capacity

The Sawed-Off Shotgun can only fire 2 rounds but possesses very high power. It requires quick reloading but the magazine capacity cannot be upgraded. A good tactic is to aim carefully, shoot, and take time to reload while the enemy is staggered.

How to Obtain the Shotgun

Obtained at the general store in Cauldron Lake

Saga can obtain the Shotgun by opening a locked box at the Cauldron Lake General Store. The lock can be opened with the code 739.

How to solve the lock number

Hint 1 Hint 2
Lock_Hint 1 Lock_Hint 2

The hint for the lock number is on a Post-it placed next to the cash register counter. The first hint is the previous number, and the second hint is the last two digits of the upcoming lottery number.

Since there is a cross on 723, the next number after 23 is 39, so the correct answer is 739.
