I was under the assumption that making special moves like healthshot, bodyshot or whatever cost from the action-bar, but when I do them I also loose almost as much from the health-bar, slowly killing myself as I shoot ... is it suppose to be like that ?


What can be done to lessen this health-bar cost ? Get better gun ? I dont wear any armour ... should I on account of the health-bar costs ?


All comments are welcome,


Thank you for your time and patience,

You weapon lists a H, A and M cost that is the basis for any special. With pistols the A cost is typically the highest. But each special also has a multiplier for each of H, A and M that is applied when that particular special is used. So while Pistols have a higher A by default, some specials can still tax your H bar almost as much.


To reduce your H costs, increase your Strength stat. This directly lowers the amount of H you use when using specials. You could also increase your Constitution stat so that it regenerates faster. You could also shop around for guns that have very low H penalties (Scout Blaster should have 11 or so).
