Division 2 SIX12: Chase The Mop, or Farm a Shotgun That Ranks?

Only if you want The Mop’s Armor on Kill. SIX12 is the named bullpup shotgun (Title Update 11), not an exotic. The named variant is The Mop: +10% Armor on Kill (Division wiki, scraped Aug 30). The exotic shotgun in the same slot is Scorpio — that is the S-tier close-range control gun on our exotic tier list.

Grindout’s weapons list (updated 26 August 2026, scraped Aug 30) puts shotgun S on Scorpio and Rock n’ Roll, A on Sheriff / Lefty / ACS-12 / M870. SIX12 and The Mop are not on that list — their rule is unmentioned = D. Year 8 Season 2 Into the Dark went live 15 June 2026 (Ubisoft). So: farm the named drop if AoK is the hole in a live build. Do not farm it as “the shotgun” — that is Scorpio or Rock n’ Roll.

Google Search Console (WEB, 2026-08-01..2026-08-28, get_advanced_search_analytics dimensions=[page,query]): this head already has 153 impressions at position 9.6 against the offer URL, not a how-to. That is why this page exists.

Farm if you already run Countdown or Summit: set shotgun as targeted loot (enemies / vendors / chests / Sealed Caches). Wiki farm path (scraped Aug 30): targeted loot, then the blueprint from Projects, Summit Challenges, or Control Points at Alert 3+. The Mop blueprint is a separate drop — NSA Tech Reconstructed Caches. Official drop percent = missing-evidence — do not reprint a shop “2%”.

Chase / pay if you want the named gun tonight and you are not going to sit shotgun targeted loot. Live checkout /division-2/six12-named-shotgun is type=basic $45 (opened Aug 30, 2026). That is a guaranteed named SIX12, not a random cache from Danny Weaver. St. Elmo’s is a different slot (AR, $35 basic) — do not substitute it. Scorpio stays the exotic shotgun; this SKU is the named chase.
