Buckshot (Also known as standard buckshot, or full-power buckshot) is a type of load for 12 gauge shotgun shells, and one of the most common. It is called "full-power" as a contrast to the lower-powered and lower-recoiling Tactical buckshot.
Mazeworld overview
| Type | LDV | Unarm | Light | Hardskin | Kevlar-2 | Kevlar-3 | Kevlar-4 | HEV |
| Bullet | +0 | 40% | 38% | 32% | 21% | 9% | 3% | 1% |
The above chart applies for ONE pellet, and may be multiplied by the amount of pellets that hit the target (up to 9).
| Dice score | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 |
| Pellets hitting | Always 0 | 3d3-3 | 3d3-3 | 3d3-2 | 3d3-1 | 3d3 | 3d3+1 | 3d3+1 | 3d3+2 | 3d3+2 | Always 9 |

Usage notes
Buckshot is a multiple-projectile type of ammunition. The amount of projectiles hitting the target is variable, and is also influenced by the failure threshold; lower scores mean less chances to hit, and higher scores mean higher chances to hit.
- It must be noted that failure threshold modifiers work differently with multiple-projectile ammunition than with single-projectile ammunition. For every increased accuracy (FT-1) occurrence, add 1 to the dice score. Likewise, for every decreased accuracy (FT+1) occurrence, subtract 1 to the dice score.
- Should the modified result ends up being 12 or greater, it counts as a critical hit of a natural 12. Likewise, if the modified result ends up being 2 or less, it counts as a critical failure of a natural 2.
