    I'm guessing that it's slightly more powerful and quieter, so attracts the attention of any surrounding guards less - giving you a better chance during assasinations where you want to get in and out with as little fuss as possible.

    Doesnt help much. They seem to "know" you killed one of theirs. They all come running when you get near them anyway.

    yeah thats why I was confused.. I tried using it to kill stuff quitely and it doesn't seem like there is any difference...

    oh well.. was just curious.. making sure I wasn't crazy and missing the obvious.

    Thanks

    Welcome to forum quamper. Hushed pistol sucks I played as gunslinger thrice and I can assure you it does. Lower damage and, as you noticed it's not a good weapon for assassin.

    On a sidenote this should be in hint&tips section :)

    Jinxed, is um...not with us. Interpret that as you will ;).

    The point of the hushed pistol is that it's slower, does less damage, but only has a sound radius of two. Which means no one can hear it unless you are next to them. Unfortunately, the shouts of their comrades alerts them anyway. If a few things had been implemented better in Arcanum, it could have been oh so much better.

    What does that mean? Did Jinxed leave? Is he dead?

    I think something different was written in between the lines. I wonder who'll be the first one to bring up someone's _ _ _ _ _ in this thread.

    On a related note, remember Fallout 2? Exact opposite problem... I killed the president with an overdose of superstimpacks, and the guy never said a word to his guard. You'd think he'd be suspicious of a complete stranger walking up and sticking needles into him, no?

    Sorry. Forgot this...

    Welcome Quamper! :wavey:


    BTW, do you mean Cassidy? (or was it Vic?) It's funny if you give him buffout - blood everywhere! MwuHaHaaHaaaa!!

    [EDIT]
    Happy now? Sorry for mispelling.

    BTW, one of your party members has a heart condition, so if you give him stimulants, he dies horribly!
