The best guns in the game

My favorite caracter vas the technologist, and I chose the gunsmith and electrical, but I hadn't found any interesting schematics, witch is the best gun

 

The Sharpshooter's Pistol, which must be stolen, haggled, or gambled away from it's owner. The Hand Cannon, Bronwicks Gun, the Looking Glass Rifle, & the Charged Accelerator Gun. For ST 12, the Mechanized Gun (expensive to run), the Grenade Launcher, the Blade Launcher & the Flamethrower. The best handgun, hands down, is Duroch's warbringer, a late game peice. The sniper might look at the Long Range Pistol as well.

The rest run from useful (the Fine Revolver), through utter crap like the Acid Gun.

 

Don't forget the Tesla gun! With gunsmithy+ electrical, he just has to get the Tesla gun. Besides, its probably the easiest schematics to get, of all good guns.

 

How could I forget the Tesla Gun? :blush:

 

You dont need to steal the Long Range Pistol, you can find the schematic for it..... its kinda rare though...... Elephant Gun is one of the best to IMHO.

Ooops...... didnt read some one's post right. Gah. never mind.

 

I don't like the tesla. The min/max damage difference is too high, it eats 4 batteries per shot, but worst of all, if your target is far away and not running at you or standing still (in other words, it's not aware of you yet ), the projectile is slow enough to miss. HATE THAT. Not to mention that, in order to build it, you have to put points into electrical, which, aside from Charged Rings, is IMO pretty worthless.

 

I suppose using turn-based combat is out of the question then, eh?

 

Nah, just stick with the Crude Flintlock Pistol throughout the game :lol: . Hehe, facing down *spoiler* at the end alone with a flintlock. Hmm, wonder how that would turn out :lol:

 

Yes, actually. Turn-based makes everything far too easy; I prefer RTB by far, and I use it exclusively.

 

My gun of choice is the Looking Glass Rifle. It's accurate, reliable, and does a good amount of damage. The Elephant Gun runs a close second, though.

On a different note, has anyone ever found/used a Levered Machine Gun? If so, is it any good?

 

I dont believe there is a "levered machinegun" in the Arcanum Main game.
On another note: I dont find the electrical college useless. You can make Chapaus (sp?) for your fallowers wich is one of the best head pieces. You can wear the regenerative jacket wich is great for gunslingers. And the flow specktromiter is great for spotting traps.

 

Hehe

Silenced pistol. It's the perfect weapon for the distinguishing technological assassin. Of couse, any real assassin would benifit much more from magic, as it enables invisibility. Assassin is a funny word. The origin, I mean. Call me a fatalist or paranoid, but I think some words seem to be made up solely for their subliminal connotations. Ooh. Gotta go. THEY'RE OUT TO GET ME!

 

Has anyone ever played with the "Rifled Cannon"? I've found the scematic for it in a previous game, but one if it's components was the charged accelerator gun which in turn I could not find the scematic for, so I couldn't make it.

However, in a twist of fate, I currently have a constructed CAG, and now need the scematic for the RC. Where is it, and is the actual gun any good.

Oh yeah, the acid gun IS a piece of crap.

So is the rifled cannon. If I remember it right, it has the speed of 6 or 7, damage 10-50 and uses 5 bullets per shot. Not worth it, when you have guns like the blade launcher or a Tesla gun.

 

The Rifled Cannon claims to be armor pericing. I suppose my 1/2 Ogre gunslinger will try it out on the Dark Palidin or Garic Stout. MSR 12, IIRC.

 

I never tried the blade launcher; MSR 15 is too high for most gunslingers.

 

My personal favorite is the Mechanized Gun.

Sure, 1-30 damage might no tbe that much, and 6 rounds/shot is a lot, but after dealing 25 shots every round with it and still have the 4000+ rounds that Sogg carries for me it feels good to slaughter a whole bunch of enemy every round.

 

One of the most powerful guns in the game. 30-60 damage, speed 6 MSR 16 I think
