Just out of curiosity as I dont remember this weapon being in-game from the last time I played, but there's a WoC Pistol that is not the xbow? says its req is 100 p-c.

Also, is it hard to get? or is it just weak and nobody uses it?

This is tests on a maxxed stats modded pistol without an ultimamod.
The ammo is just silly, you need to kill a 100+ levle mob to get one pack of ammo.

Dammage and skill required to cap are so outrageous that the weapon wouldn't even be used if it was something you could buy at an archer and wesson store.

In all fairness, one ammo clip is a clip of 80 and the gun holds what.... 20? So you would get 3 reloads out of one clip.

As for the capping, it can be capped if you are pure lowtech. Ditch the T-C and you should have enough for the extra P-C needed, especially spies. If you have all INT into WEP (like a rifle user setup) this will help too.

Having said that, it would be nice if Larent pistol barrels dropped again from the Larent hoverbots ;) *hint hint*

OK but show me any spy/pe that has woc 1 and would ditch their TC so they could cap the ceres pistol and NOT be able to use the xbow.

I'm sure there are some... hidden away in a mental asylum, yet connected to the internet.

i think they are the ones who started the rumor that xbow is way overpowered and can be capped with a moveon/ppr setup and 166 pc skill aswell. :rolleyes:

By the amount of PEOPLE who actuley do use them :rolleyes: and by the amount of ppl trying to sell them ... thats how. (the ceres guns are just reskined guns with higher tl and higher req to cap them)


If i eventuly do decide to go for woc (Which in all honesty is a waste of RL time) then i certenly WONT waste my skill set up on them peices of crap. I would join the hoards of FOTM's useing xbows.
