Cons Of Dual Wielding?
What are the benefits of using a single revolver over akimboing two of them? I heard singlew revolver one handedly fans the hammer faster then hipfiring two but are there any other benefits to not using two revolvers at once?

No, I think he means quickdrawing by pressing the right and left mouse buttons in quick succesion to pull and fire a single handgun.

yes, there's a term for it tho. dual wield prevent you from doing this because well, your left hand is also holding a gun. unless you use double action or semi auto pistol. it wont be a problem, but automatic guns have less damage and accuracy than single action

It's called "fanning" cause you're waving the hammer to fire in quick succession to fire faster.

But yes dual wielding essentially can allow for long engagements due to no reloads, but has a decrease in accuracy and fire rate (unless) you use dead-eye and can fire all 15-20 rounds in about 2 seconds lol.

The Mauser semi-auto pistol for example fires like a machine gun in dead-eye.

Honestly I only use a single revolver for the most part, I would dual wield but hate the placement of the offhand holster right infront of the pc.

yeah me too, and it just looks goofy and impractical, like, whole game goes for this realism thing but in reality dual wielding guns wouldn't be very practical except in very close quaters with many things to shot a bunch of time. and fanning the hammer is just so setisfying to give that up. feel like a dejango when I blast through 3 guys with 6 rapid left click clicks in 2 seconds.

What I can't figure out despite the animations being in the game is how we ♥♥♥♥ volcanic pistols between shots one handed.

Same, the offhand hides the tools on my collector belt online.
