Hey, I've sunk some hours into Underrail, but I'm no expert. Can anyone tell me if buliding pistoleer is way harder, and worse than an SMG guy?
-
Pistol is probably the worst build aside from throwing-only, but it's not really meant to be a build of it's own, I think. You can do it, but understand you're choosing a harder path. SMG's are pretty good.
-
Pistols don't have skill requirements, so anyone that has enough Dex can take Gunslinger to get a significant initiative boost. You can also use them to execute opponents you've CC'd with other stuff, so you can conserve Psi or grenades or whatnot.
-
Pistols builds can be pretty strong in certain situations, but they are less consistent than other builds. This is because the only pistol worth its shit is the hammerer, which has a massive damage range and high AP cost, giving you a limited number of potentially devastating attacks.

Unless you are using chem or energy pistols
