Tips
- Early on, the PMm and Shotgun are your best bets. The PMm is cheap and reliable for close encounters, while the shotgun can save your hide against groups of weaker mutants or unarmored bandits.
- As you get more cash, consider upgrading to pistols like the Walker P9m or the Kora-919 for better accuracy and handling. They're a good step up from the basic sidearms.
- For mid-range engagements, assault rifles like the AKM 74/2U or the TRs 301 offer a good balance of stopping power and rate of fire. The TRs 301, despite its cost, is a solid all-rounder.
- If you're planning on taking on tougher enemies or want to engage from a distance, look into sniper rifles like the SVDm 2 or SVUmk2. They pack a serious punch but are slow to fire and expensive.
- Don't forget about specialized weapons like the RPG-7u for heavy targets, but be aware of its hefty price tag and weight.
- Always check the weight of a weapon. Carrying too many heavy guns will slow you down, making you an easier target.
