Story mode: Best weapon combination
Yo yo cowpokes

Been wondering ya’ll, what’s the best weapon combination in your opinion? And why?

I maintain the sawed-off shutgun and the Schofield revolver which both are perfect for short range shooting and also works great together when using dual weild as one covers the other pretty decently, Lancaster repeater for mid-range shooting which is a class for such cases- super accurate and firerates are very balanced, and the last will be the legendary Rolling block rifle which I carry only when needed because its weight, but its easly the best sniper in this game.

What about you? What is your prefered arsenal? Write below 😎

i completed my first Story Mode (SP) playthrough with carbine repeater & pump-action shotgun, and cattleman's revolver (since the revolver is so useless - even though ur forced to use it at times)

And then i kept getting frustrated when the game would auto-set my loadout for certain missions
Me: "Oh - please - do give my a bow and arrow instead of the repeater i had in that slot"

Second playthrough i used the Lancaster whenever i could - strictly for the ammo capacity & range.

Third playthrough i relied more on my revolvers without aiming (or deadeye) for their fire rate (better than pistols) - more "roleplaying" style. Cattleman's and Schofield was my preferred loadout. Calloway's is good, but you only get it at end-game which is very sad.

Problem with hand-guns is how many shots it takes to drop someone without a headshot (and reloading time - but again "for roleplaying").

Midnight's pistol has a nice high fire rate, but damage was even lower than revolver low so i skipped it.

Sounds rough but understandable roleplaying-wise.

I actually got my Calloway’s on Chapter 2 so.. maybe you missed it? On stranger mission “The Noblest of Men, and a Woman”, loot from Jim Calloway.

And yeah same - second playthrough and Lancaster is rolling.
