Making "Pistols Only" an Awesome Loadout | Planetside 2 Gameplay

[@CAMIKAZE78]

It's been possible to run a "Pistols Only" in Planetside 2 for a while now... But now, you can really dial it to an 11 and do some insane stuff! Let's talk about an optimal pistols only build, and see how it plays. If you enjoyed the video backhand that like button! Feedback is always appreciated!

I've been asking for this for soooo long thank you.

[@theonlymann1485]

can you make a guide on how to get A7, Kuwa has entered my vision for an grenedier loadout for the engie and i want to get it, but for obvious reasons i cant- i dont know what even a bounty target is.

[@WitchDoctor87]

@@theonlymann1485 Bounty targets are people who are worth more points because they killed a bunch of people. If you want some battle engi loadouts I can help also.

[@Shadowhawkdark]

I think there are a few more interesting weapons not touched on that probably should have been. NC's shotty pistol, TR's burst pistol with 30 round mag, VS' chargeshot pistol...also, I'd be curious to see if 30% ammo return and swap speed is decent enough for the crossbow thing to turn into a real threat.

[@WitchDoctor87]

@@Shadowhawkdark For sure, I actually like many of the faction based gun more then the ns pistols.

[@VariusMayhem]

If Stalkers could make use of Sidearm primaries, it would be the ASP skill of choice for Stalkers.

[@HangmanSwingset]

It should also be noted that only one round being restocked to a commissioner means the all too common four shot kill for idiots like me who can’t aim stays within short reload territory. Also double Underboob gets pretty tasty with this setup.

[@CAMIKAZE78]

Very true, the Commissioner build requires some serious accuracy to make the most of, hence why the Pilot build is the one I highlighted first.

[@elijahduce5323]

The Over Compensation Loadout Light Assault Class Primary: Bruiser (whatever attachments you want) Secondary: Blitz (or Emissary) with whatever attachments Rocket Rifle Ability Slot: Ambusher Jump Jets Suit Slot: Grenade Bandolier Grenade: Smoke Grenade Utility: Restoration Kits Knife: Carver Implants: Carapace and Infravision The point of this Loadout is to be the alpha male of Auraxis but you have to over compensate to do so. Barge into a choke point or contested room and kill all there is. Give yourself a restoration kit and throw in a smoke grenade and jump in quickly with the ambusher jets and fire off the shotgun for some cheeky kills or use your high capacity SMG or Emissary to rack up a lot of kills before anyone can really react to the absolute chaos you unfold. The Carver is there for the juicy one shot knife kills. This is an expensive loadout but it is well worth it. Keep it spicy!!

[@deslow7411]

Wrong video. This wasn't time to gear up episode.

[@elijahduce5323]

@@deslow7411 I realized that later lol.

[@zdjhjsbfhushx]

Smoke grenades kinda suck. People just spot you. Flash grenade + ocular shield is situational but it can work. Pump shotguns really could use a buff though. They are so inconsistent and not landing a one shot against any good player is a death sentence.

[@superbrain3848]

when the Overwatch player starts the wrong game and didnt notice it for a while.

[@CAMIKAZE78]

What... this isn't overwatch?!

[@AviatorFox]

See, I've been using Scavenger with my SAW and EM6. Get a single finisher kill and avoid the reload for another kill or two with the primary. This is an amazingly inventive way to use the implant though and I love it

[@CAMIKAZE78]

Definitely opens up the opportunity quite a bit, and man has it been fun.

[@joewozniak711]

That ASP if mainly for directive grinders. There are much better ASP things to go into but if you are lacking in the sidearms for directive lines this is the way to go. It's an end game thing to do.

[@tulisotilas]

LA-8 Rebel salesman here! Rebel against the NS monopoly of "good sidearms", and get yourself one of these hidden gems from Liberty Arsenal today. But why you might ask? It can do the famed 2-hit kill while; having super fast reload speed, Bigger magazine Higher fire rate Cheaper and Enemies can survive your power move

[@csos636]

"Felt like i was playing red redemtion 2... in the planetside universe "... thats the best quote for this vid lmao... kami u crazy.

[@CAMIKAZE78]

Thank you, thank you.

[@BSEUNHIR]

Interesting build! Personally, I went with 2x Commi using Vampire + Assimilate as adrenaline HA before. That's UP TO 768 raw HP per kill. Made me feel unstoppable as long as I was able to keep churning out headshots. Felt like a decent way to grind up commi auraxium in bio labs. :)

[@CAMIKAZE78]

Damn, that's some insane potential heal per kill right there... I might need to give this a go; assuming I can hit them headshots.

[@Ignisium]

@@CAMIKAZE78 This pistol build might be downright overpowered on vanu at the moment thanks to their campaign specific infil ability, “Hermes Cloaking”. Basically it gives you adrenaline pump speed so long as you are cloaked; You could use it with this build for a crazy amount of combined speed and killing potential.

[@strikeforce1500]

Not gonna lie, after watching this video, it make me wish the ES pistols were... Better?. Sure, Rebel is great, but there is basically no reason to pick anything but the revolvers

[@raz802]

I like the desperado. And the Mag-Shot? The lil shotgun one, is a fun meme weapon. That said, I've had great fun with NSO pistols, the Lastly specifically. Idk what it is specifically, but it's been quite nice, and sometimes more reliable than other weapons on my loadout.

[@DaxMarko]

If you are bare-minimum skilled at shooting and want to have fun, then you can pick anything else but revolver. Dunno for other factions, but on TR, the Emperor has an amazing time-to-kill potential, needing just 3 headshots, and considering how fast it can shoot. But I would run with T4 AMP and Repeater, just to pack some brrr in TR spirit. Also, NSO's Harbinger is actually better than revolvers in every sense.

[@CAMIKAZE78]

You and me both mate, would love to see a rebalancing of these things in the long run to make them more impactful.

[@scurtus1885]

At the moment I have more kills with the repeater than the revolvers. Likely because I can't aim and going for upper chest and brrt to head works and can be "full auto" in a barrel stuffing match is ok

[@DaxMarko]

I'd argue revolvers need a serious nerf, commissioner basically being a pinpoint hipfire semi-auto bolter is too much. Rest of sidearms seem pretty decent for being a sidearm.

[@rezver7707]

This makes me wish you could dual-wield sidearms. Dual-wield Pilots or Underbosses, good god that would be terrifying.

[@Ignisium]

This is basically duel wielding

[@pkids4142]

I was looking for more effective ways to auraxium some pistols. Thank you Camikaze78 for cracking the code.

[@CAMIKAZE78]

Happy to be of help mate, hope you enjoy it!

[@unnamedplayer6334]

I also made myself a speed/snipe build for the infiltrator with the hermes cloak for the time it’s still useable it’s lots of fun that people just don’t see you and if they do you are faster then their aim

[@rwwalker721]

Honestly, Hunter Explosive + a Commissioner or Pilot would be the be best loadout for Anti-Armor and Anti-Infantry.

[@sergiogrys4925]

I thought they were adding dual pistols. Got my blood pumping there for a second

[@BlackRodger]

Now people will say that I'm playing with Camis loadout :( I've been running Showdown/NS-357 IA with Gunslinger+Scavenger with Ammo belt for a while now. Good fun. Plus, with pistols like Yawara, Pilot, Inquisitor you get enough bullets per kill to kill one more person, very nice during revivefest.

[@theonlymann1485]

how do you get enough A7s to buy one anyway :(

[@BlackRodger]

@@theonlymann1485 Just do missions every time you play. Also, I got lots of A7 before they changed way you get it.

[@theonlymann1485]

@@BlackRodger rip me, i dont know what even a bounty'f enemy is

@@theonlymann1485 Bounty targets are people with target mark on them, easy to spot on mini map. It's people who got 7 kills killsteak.

[@BrianRJames-ou1mo]

@@theonlymann1485 There is an easy Auraximus event mission that grants 250 A7. It's not offered every day though.

[@tungstentaco495]

I always thought it would be interesting to have a dual wield sidearm option for the infiltrators. Basically a mini-MAX. That setup could be way OP so probably hip-fire only and certainly no stalker cloak. Probably would need some other nerfs as well to keep it balanced, but I think it would be really fun to play that way.

[@estolieman]

my nephew has been watching play for some time and like to look at the directive lines. He has mention that he wants me to do the sidearm line, in which I die a little each time. after watching this I now may look into it now

[@JohnFromAccounting]

The Commie-Commie build is my favourite for hipfire headshots.

[@TheOblomoff]

Feels ambidextrous, man.

[@Apticx]

It might sound stupid but play that on a heavy. ive been playing heavy dual pistol setups even before that implant was a thing and its a lot of fun. sometimes the firepower of commissioners is just insane

[@CAMIKAZE78]

Been meaning to give it a go myself mate, cheers for sharing!

[@M_R.b]

the auraxium weapon of nso have 167 dmg max and 143 minimum , its accurate and have 550m/s velocity , and maybe would fit this build

[@tigeralbatros9432]

Used 2x Pistol loadouts back in 2019 to unkock the NSX-A Yawara. Now I can use 2x Yawara loadouts if i feel masochistic enough

[@baronwhite4631]

Wow you fighting ontop or near, the tr sunders (ascent cave), with the pilot(s), is good man, gj.

[@RfLARedBeard]

so those random buffs on the implants were actually useful. always thought they were pointless but turns out the devs knew what they were doin :)

[@raz802]

Literally I wanted to do this the second the Ammo Belt upgrade came out

[@zakadams762]

This should be done with a medic, the benefit is you can spend more time on med tool and be reliable to get bullets on target in the worst situations

[@kamilpeciak1543]

well after watching your video now I have a dilemma. What pistol should I buy for my infiltrator build? ns45 pilot or commisioner? They both seem to have their own pros and cons but which of these would be better in CQC build with stalker cloak? I don't have any pistol besides the default one and I play as a TR infiltrator. I'd greatly appreciate your advice

[@Einxeld]

Revolvers have no silencers, so imo you need to choose between Blackhand (sniper pistol, 2 headshot kill) or pilot (fast burst, but close range). Also Blackhand has no bullet drop on medium distances, so if you aim just in head, it makes easy kills.

[@mikaelh4743]

I got a funny one for you @CAMIKAZE78! I call it Matrix Gonzalez! Infiltrator with Hermes Cloaking, Springstep, Assimilate and Adrenaline Pump to start off. Main Weapon: NSX Tomeo w/ Suppressor Secondary: NSX Yawarra w/ Suppressor Grenade: EMP Utility: Auxiliary Shield You will go so fast you will literary dodge bullets and topping off your shield and cloak while killing! Enjoy!

I legit went to equip Stalker Cloak out of the gate and then immediately thought to myself... Oh, that's right.

[@N0ullify]

Love youre Vids, also could u do a updated best weapon for every class vid?

Can you use stalker cloaking with two sidearms? Or does the primary slot get disabled?

[@voidra5590]

I don't know if it's me but every time I watch one PC and it's a PS4 player I see the cross hair from hipfire and I'm just like; why is it so small and ours is the just "big." But that would be cool I got to say.

[@PhilipAndresen]

Ah so, my impression was that the reload speed buff from gunslinger did not stack with the bandolier reload speed buff. Do they actually stack?

[@perianudan-claudiu2495]

Switching weapon speed is not that important with pistols. I'm using this build on LA and I'm not using Gunslinger anymore. Cerberus and Manticore from VS, Scavenger works good for them. It's a cheeky build, but for an Infil a SMG is better.

[@arksin11]

All the theorycrafting was nice, but gameplay example in video hardly show any single clip where this worked out to half of its theoretical potential, which in best case is still far inferior to primary/secondary. I can see the fun aspect, which is more or less just a difficulty challenge which make it interesting in the first place, that alone points out that loadout is not all that great at all even when fully stacked and certed.

[@CAMIKAZE78]

It's also worth noting that I am not a top tier player, and while there's a lot of theorycrafting in the video and such, I've seen some incredible players go on rampages with this stuff; people with much better gameplay than myself. The point is, you can do stuff that you wouldn't normally be able to do with this stuff. :)

[@sixten7920]

to me trying out quirky and fun play styles is what helps keep this game fresh instead of just running the absolute meta for everything. There are people who play almost entirely the same loadout for the past 6-8-10 years because they can't handle seeing their stat sheet numbers go down too much.

[@geomotrix]

Been pistol primary-ing the emperor to unlock the president, I hate myself for making this decision. It has become my highest IvI scored gun on fisu, so I guess not many other people are as stupid as I am.

[@LordPsychocutioner]

Does anyone know if the Automatic Pistol is any good? I like to use it with the laser sights as they mix with that sight and make it easier to use. Is this any good in Bf4? It's awesome with the G11 in Battlefield 4 for instance

[@jeffreyhoon]

So would this mean this is the... Pilot loadout?

[@AviatorFox]

Oh my god how did double Commissioner never occur to me...?

Okay this is cool and all but why are you running hunter cloak instead of stalker? O.o

[@violenceandpoetry]

You can do ASP again for more points? ... Why is this not more prominently stated in the launcher?

[@augustusirl]

Seems more like high risk low reward to me -- at the end of the day you're using an inferior weapon that (in the case of the pilot) already reloads very quickly.
