i have been playing around with the hek now for some time and i have to say, it IS the best weapon in game, although not by far.

it's long range accuracy is kinda op for a SHOTGUN, grineer, corpus and infested all dies in 1 shot, even at ranges above mid range.

yes, it only has 4 (6 with + mag capacity at rank 3) shots per clip but it reloads faster then the strun. the hek also "kicks" enemies away if they are killed, preventing the infested guys from exploding and makes ancients stagger almost every time they get hit (no stun mod equipped). it's easier to land all pellets onto one target and it's firing speed is pretty decent without mods.

another advantage (goes for strun and hek, havent tried the boar), it is VERY difficult to run out of ammo since almost every enemy drops shotgun ammo and you can't pump out your ammo as fast.
