Does the "AP" Tranq. pistol variant go through armor and helmets?
As the title says. If so, then it will be an amazing weapon against high level FOB's.

Pretty sure its just strong enough to break glass. And that's almost pointless.

you better off using the waterpistol

It's a damn shame because that would be OP as ♥♥♥♥. I never use the tranq pistol anymore now that I have the Tranq rifle with a silencer. The only downside to it is that it won't penetrate armor like it's other rifle variants. I am not even sure any of the tranq weapons can sadly. If there is I don't know about it :Furrowed:

what about the tranq shotgun or machinegun , hard not to hit his face lol

Well that's lame then. Seriously, why even call it "AP" when it penetrates only glass... Getting my hopes up for nothing. Oh well, at least I still have the OP as heck sleeping gas grenades at rank 5.

It penetrates the glass visors on the heavy soldiers wearing riot suits, so being skillfull and shooting them in the visor makes it useful.
personally I would just carry the upgraded wu with infinate suppressor and CQC the guards

This is new. I must try this soon.

shoot them in the groin area! (gap in the armor) takes them down almost as fast as a headshot.

Meh. it's easier to use Hand of Jehuty, once you upgrade the range.

Is that actually their weak spot for riot suits? I've been trying to find one...

No. It just breaks glass (doesn't actually pierce either), so you can use it to break lights. One of the most pointless upgrades.

Juts CQC them. They may be armored like a tank, but get owned by a fist.
Dunno,breaking glass is still better than a laserpointer or a flashlight.
Because thats what you want in a "stealth" game...a flashlight...
