Finally made a pistol and you can't aim them??? No ADS??

Is this for real? It jump/dodges instead what the actual F? Dude some choices these guys made is so weird.. like seriously.

ads is primarily used for rifles, yes.

pistols have extremely poor range, you wont generally want to be outside of close range to use them unless you have specific charms.

umm have you used a pistol? I have and every-time I have fired it I have aimed.. lol This is literally the only game I can think of that I have ever played where you can not ADS your pistol what are you on about? It's not a shotgun..

In the real world, yes. This isn't the real world. In the GAME, the range of the pistols is terrible. Other than the crosshairs being hard to see at times, they work fine. Maybe they'll change it in the future if enough people actually put something about it on their official bug/suggestions forums instead of complaining in a steam forum. File a report and wait to see if they fix it to your liking.

Later you will find out that cannot hit AF. Bullets just hitting the ground behind mobs texture/hit box.

You dont ADS a pistol in this game because you are gonna be using the EVADE button with that pistol and thats alot more fun than ADS for the pistol.

ADS would be much more boring also slow and useless for that gun in this game.

It is the way it is because of how it is meant to function as a weapon so your best bet is to try to understand the game play better and then maybe see why its that way.

Get into some actual fights with your pistol and you'll likely agree that giving up ADS for a dash is worth it. Best solution they could offer is having both and maybe moving the dash skill to V and dropping the multishot option--but dashing around with a ranged weapon and your umbrella is extremely nice.

Rt mouse button to aim or just use your eye and be aware of the trajectory. Pistols don't have long range unless you build for it. I will probably eventually go back to sling bow as so far guns aren't that great and from what I read aiming the long barrel guns isn't very good. Ahh well. And V for multishot. The most aggravating thing is game tells you to reload when there is still a shot left. WTF these devs thinking? When it says reload, I reload and always a dumb shot at same time. I know, but Pavlov, follow orders.
