How to Get all Unique Pistols in Avowed
In Avowed, pistols are one-handed ranged weapons that fire high-damage, high-Stun projectiles in a straight line at medium range. They need to be aimed manually and have a slow rate of fire since you have to reload after every shot. You can’t block with a pistol on its own, you’ll need either a blocking weapon in your other hand or a shield in your off hand to defend yourself. Pistols can be equipped in either your main hand or off hand, allowing you to dual-wield them with another one-handed weapon or pair them with an off hand item like a shield or grimoire.
