Pistoleer Archive

Unfortunately you dont get to choose between speed or damage when you get your gun sliced.

I use a scout (dont know the stats exactly) because most animals have high resistance to FWG5s. I havent used the DH17s though.

My DH17 does 91-137dmg @ 1.8 speed

This gun is the whole reason I dropped rifle and started working pistol xp.

I think the whole discussion of whatthe better pistol is fine as long, as you guys remember it is in relative terms. A lot of testing is starting to uncover the effectiveness (or lack of it) with certian weapons. The FWG5 will work well on animals with heat vulnerabilities. Example, a energy blast doesn't do **edit** to mite creatures, so don't use it. That have extra protection aganist energy with their armor (at least from exp. this seems true, I don't have Hunt 4 yet to confirm.)

It's all case by case. But the thing we should be most concerned about, if you PvP, is that I don't think there is a pistol out there we can use that has an AR above zero....please correct me if I am wrong.

My main issue with the DH17 has been that it uses the carbine animations, not the pistol ones. When I use my DH17, it seems that I can't move when I start combat or when I finish a creature off. Makes things a little aggravating when I'm floating around trying to kite a mass of slow creatures; they keep catching up to me when my current target dies as I stand there like a moron.
