A first for me (my first grade 5 personal weapon)

After much on and off playing of elite... and the generally bad launch of oddesy early access...
I finally have my first ever grade 5 personal weapon!
Just need audio masking and it will be complete!

And its all thanks to the little care packages given to me by Daddy Patreus!
(Honestly... even if they moved all the power play modules out of power play and into a tech broker... I'd still participate in power play for the care packages and the selection of on foot and ship engineering bits.)

Special mention to the citizens of a Sirius Corp controlled system who all died horrifically yesterday... after I landed and then... hmmm... checks the access logs their site manager logged into the settlement alarms and switched it off... preventing them from calling for help... on 4 different settlements!
See now this is why you can't trust Sirius corp... people go crazy and start disabling alarms and turrets...
((I do kinda wish they would make the kinetic weapons have a silencer on visually))

But don't worry! Now I can stop those crazy site managers with my new grade 5 pistol! I'll be able to cough (pillage) cough SAVE the galaxy!
((not that I need to... I've actually managed fine with a grade 3 plasma rifle and a grade 3 kinetic pistol and a grade 3 engineer suit for a while, this just makes infiltrating and slaughtering settlements easier now that its all nearly grade 5.))

Consider stability; I call the P-15 'Jumpy' because it's stability without a mod is pretty terrible.

I was actually thinking about this initially.
But over time its actually become an incredibly useless idea.

I tend to use the P-15 like one would in real life.
Its not some sharp shooting toy. A silenced pistol that is pulled out in a flash and you unload 8 shots into a person within spitting distance to silence them fast. The recoil, drift, scatter and such doesn't matter when they are that close.

I'm not sniping people. I'm shooting people who are unaware with their shields down. Or using it to quickly finish off a guy who lost their shields to my plasma gun.

It needs to kill fast, before someone can scream for help as I make my way to switch off the settlement alarms. Hence why i have the P-15 and not the plasma pistol... the plasma pistol is suprisingly terrible at killing people quietly and quickly. With them frequently dodging out the way of the plasma bolt even at short range.

If anything quick handling might be what I need.

I might get stability for my plasma AR. But otherwise... not needed for the pistol.

Double silenced, hip firing, extra ammo, shotgun.
Now that's what l call a wep on foot.
G5 of course.

Sadly as much as I'd love to use the plasma shotgun it just doesn't perform under the situations I am in. Maybe one day we get a kinetic shotgun styled like the Armstel Riot Shotgun that could work...

Yeah it's fundamentally an npc wacker. Point blank range i just bounce about using a pimped maverick suit an descend upon the unfortunate victim normally from above hehe. Or just plain rush em. Once im within 10 yards it's game over for em shielded or not. That 3rd shot and quick reload is everything. And no noise inside & out means a stealth aspect. It's a shame we can't pick up and conceal the corpses hehe.
I also have a sidearm same build. Just in case.

Not a problem I'm having, and the Tormentor has been my sidearm since Oddesey was released. And it works well as a long range (in Oddesey terms) sniper too.
But in the end it's all preferences. It's good that all the weapons are being used.

I have a G5 fully engineered 3-shot silenced Intimidator and for a sidearm, I have the Tormentor, because I engineered it to be a mini sniper rifle. Each bullet from the Intimidator has its own damage. so you can take out someones' shield and cause HP loss from one hit at close range
