    My issue with the pointman is that it's using the silenced muzzle velocity.
    The gun's description says it has a high velocity and it certainly does not.

      This, this is my only issue with it. The standard centy shorty is 540... So why does adding a scope, nerf it's velo, especially as much as a silencer

      @koyomiararagi3018 exactly, there's literally no reasoning for it whatsoever. I'm not as fussed as I've taken to using the Springfield bullseye instead. Or just a full length sniper. But I really wanted it to work so I could pair it with the bow, I just can't justify it's use when it's velo is so bad

      There is a chance that it's only a visual bug and showing the wrong stats. It wouldn't be the first time, that the shop is showing the wrong stats, but the HS range, visible in game, is equal to the silencer version. That makes it unlikely to be just a bug in the store.

    I played this thing like 10 games in a row when I first unlocked it. Seriosuly couldn't find a situation in which I wanted to use it. Marksman scope range is not the same as this bullets reliable range and the nerfs to HV hit this weapon before anyone could play it
    I combo'd the pointman with the shorty drilling to get the most HV ammo possible for it and have a shotgun fallback for pushes... ended up using it as a spare ammo bag for the lil drilling

  • @RoBin-rs4ll
    @RoBin-rs4ll Місяць тому

    I like the pointman. I don't have a real solution to pair it with something good, but if you want to pick shorty silenced then don't use the dumdum ammo. The point of using the silenced is to use it and when you have dumdum ammo you want to save the dumdum ammo because you don't have many with a shorty. I think pair the pointman with the terminus and get levering, or I use a slate if I don't have levering and bulletgrubber.

      Have you tried not getting headshot? I hear that works quite well sometimes. Honestly though if you're having issues with sweats, just go goofy for a while - stop tryna sweat and start trying to have fun. My favorites are double hand crossbow, all dragonsbreath and 1 revive (with a team), and some ammo boxes, Explo Crossbow QM with bornheim match (Fire ammo, but your preference), or just running 4 beetles and goofing off. It really helps bring you back to earth sometimes.
