Devs: Piercing" Bullets instead of Ricochet?
engis had piercing pistol and now its gone. and were talking about the class with the most buffs from this patch so dont expect to get it on thief
What’s the purity of pistols?
“Pew pew pew pew….. Oh I need a head shot? Do I have the initiative? No? Oh well pew pew pew pew.”
I’m probably in the minority here when I say that I think that its nice to get piercing bullets and it makes WAY more sense. I’m just worried about the range buff that ricochet provided and whether we have another way to get it. I want p/p to be a viable set SO bad.

There still seems to be too much RNG – Like what if there is or isn’t a guy behind your target?
It will still be too hard to balance – When there is a guy or two behind your target you’re dealing double/triple damage! OP
And it still taking away from the purity of the weapon set – it gives it something useful.
Yeah slightly salty about the removal of ricochet.
“When you successfully interrupt a skill while wielding Pistol in your main hand, your next attack doesn’t spend Initiative. When you attack a foe that’s under the effect of Vulnerability, your shots pierce.”
Skillful play, better pressure damage when playing skillfully, Body Shot being situationally useful instead of bad. Also, increase #1 damage by 25%.
And even then Pistol would still be weak, but maybe not the most useless weapon set in the entire game.
I could get behind changes like that.
