Thread: FWG5?
Many of the pistoleers i have talked to, and read about, are mostly using the fwg5...
Did i miss something? Why is the fwg5 best for pistoleer right now, or is?
Help would be greatly appreciated

FWG5 is popular because of it's high damage numbers. It also has decent accuracy for a pistol. Personally, I have a crazy-fast (1.2 sec) FWG, and I like to use it to spam stopping shot with when I'm hepped on on tatooine sunburn.
Disadvantages are heat damage (which many mobs are armored against) and relatively high HAM cost. Also slighly higher speed than a really fast gun like a scout.
But Gundam is right, you need to carry multiple pistols, and change them depending on the target.
definitely depends on resists and remember armor piercing is dx2, and it makesa BIG difference vs armored opponents.
reason i like fwg best if it is a viable choice is my gun: 1.8 speed 78-286 damage
yes it is a custom, yes it uses dragon parts to make, yes it was all great experiments (except one meiocre one), yes it used great materials. I have only seen ONE better fwg5 ever. I can hit for over 2k no problem with stopping shot.
DX2, fwg, scout are all on my toolbar
use /examine
if armor exists dx2 is the gun, otherwise use what has the least resist.
