Close Encounters is a Crucible Medal: defeat two opponents at close range with a Shotgun without switching weapons or reloading.
How to complete
- Equip a Shotgun and get two final blows in a row, with no reload and no weapon swap between them.
- Both kills must be close range. A lightweight-frame shotgun in regular Control keeps its kill range within the requirement, whereas slug shotguns or very high damage modes (e.g. Momentum Control) can kill beyond the range threshold.
- It is among the easier weapon medals.
It is also tied to Shotgun Mastery.
