Helena's unique shotgun is designed specifically for close-range combat, dealing massive damage up close while dealing paltry damage from a distance, making it useless. The weapon is also aimed from the hip, further worsening the accuracy from mid-range. The Hydra also features the fastest firing speed among all the shotguns in-game, being able to shoot as fast as you can pull the trigger. This weapon also utilizes the longer 10-Gauge Shells instead of 12-Gauge Shells. Given that this weapon is exclusive to Helena in campaign, only she can pick the ammo for it. The downsides for this weapon are its low capacity compared to the other two shotguns and also the rarity of its ammunition.
