Teppo weak?

[Gisborne]

Why does teppo feel way worse to use than bow? Not just took me 3 head shots to kill an enemy fromc30%health on expert. Firdt shot always only jsit takes off the hat, meaning you need 2 shots min to kill any enemy at all, has far less ammo than bow and bow can do the instant follow up shot to head with the talent, as well as have the silent arrows to 1 shot even hard enemies. Teppo just feels like utter ♥♥♥♥♥.

For sure, but my biggest problem with the teppo is the reload rate vs the bullet damage. I don't mind weaker weapons but match a weak weapon with a long reload speed and it becomes useless to me.

Seems counter-intuitive to use a weapon like that in an Assassin's Creed game.

I haven't touched it because it's too loud. I hear those shots echoing throughout the forest.

Who in the hell would use that boom cannon other than a crazed maniac.

Give away my position much.

You must have very little armor piercing, then, because I headshot samurai in two hits with a teppo. That is besides the historical fact that that is what helmets were for.

Also, it seems that the reload takes much longer for Yasuke than for the enemy. If you dodge or run while reload it gets cancelled, you still have to reload standing still. Also the enemies seem to do way more damage with it, the bow is really weak compared to previous games. Also, the bow is more for stealth and would fit Naeo better. Yasuke is just not the right person, although he seems to be the 'canon' figure, but his fighting style is just to brutal and takes away the awesome feeling that Naoe gives. Maybe Ubisoft had better done a real Syndicate, with a sister and brother, and maybe add Yasuke as a member of the league.

Erm no? Show me the historical evidence a helmet stopped. Bullets? Today helmets are for shrapnel and back then they were mainly to deflect spears and swords...

Helmets were to prevent fatal blows from weapons, including ranged weapons. That is besides the fact that turning it into a one-shot wonder would moot the gameplay.

As far as I remember, Helmets were never designed to protect the wearer from musket bullets (Usually Lead bullets)
The only type of helmet specifically designed was I think for the French Cavalry (17th or 18th century as far as I remember). And these helmets were designed to protect from flintlock pistols (Pistol bullets had lower momentum than rifles, mostly due to the length of the barrel)

Because Ubisoft is from a country that hates guns. If they made the teppo powerful they would be promoting guns in their gun hating country.

The ♥♥♥♥♥♥ gun took 15-20 shots to kill a single target (All headshots). The same target took 3-4 arrows to die.

You realize the teppo is for Yasuke, right? He has no stealth and he has no position.

No, it does not.
