Pistoleer Archive

I just achvied Novice Pistoleer. Thank you Thank you.

Though I've beed useing the same 46-103, 2.3 speed Scout Blaster forever.

So as a newb Pistoleer whats the best gun and/or damage i should expect to find when shopping for a new gun. Thanks and please post anything else you think i should know

DX2, FWG5, and Scouts are all good. Reldan sells them all and is in stock a lot.

I would recommend having a Scout, FWG5, and DX2 on you at all times and purchase them in that order. Swap in the correct gun based on the target'sresistances. On my server at this time, the FWG5 is still the best of the 3. But there are no small number of mobs with 100% heat resistance, so you need more than just an FWG5.

Which pistol is good for what mob\armor type?

Scout best for?

FW best for?

DX2 best for?

Scout uses energy

FWG uses heat

DX2 uses acid

Use your best DPS weapon against mobs that have 0% resist to it. If all types are resisted some then you might have to do some math, or just pick the gun that matches the least resisted.

Also of note, the SR Combat pistol is rumored tobe armor piercing1 which means it does twice as much as the other pistols to targets with armor rating (AR) 1 or higher. And it does 25% more totargets withAR 0. You can check mob armor rating and resists in the examine window if you have sufficient Creature Knowledge skill.Weapon armor rating will be visible in the examine window after the mega patch next week.

scout and fw5 are right on par with each other, u should carry one of each.
