Magnum

Why could i never find ammo for it.

9 Coins for a gun with 1 bullet and i set it off by accident and missed too cause of that.

What a waste of 9 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Coins.

Where can i get ammo?"

[ddp3slow]

Ammo is very scarce, and usually hidden quite well. Some of it is even hidden away as one of the "treasures". I was able to get I think maybeee 7 bullets for it throughout the whole game, and even then the gun ended up being underwhelming, i used all 7 rounds on two enemies. :(

Magnum ammo is apparently very, very scarce. I would recommend not spending coins on that gun, since most of the time you will want to avoid enemies. You will be fine with the cop pistol, shotgun and other weapons which you get normally.

The health/reload speed upgrade are much better options

Btw, there are Magnum bullets in the toilet in the trailer.

I'm not entirely sure if there are more than 10 bullets for the magnum in the entire game (on normal). Much like the classic titles, when you find magnum ammo, it is a monumental deal. 1 or 2 bullets are seriously valuable.

with hundreds of handgun bullets and 50 shotgun shells you can kill anything. Lets not forget laucnher, burner and etc. Game has no place for magnum.
Bosses doesnt have an traditional hp pool. If you deal too much dmg wiht one shot it will be wasted. Look at third Jack battle for example.
Youd better just run around with shotgun and kill everything with 1-2 shots or crafting enchanced handgun ammo. It will neat better results,

the shotgun and M19 was the main weapons used by me.. Flame thrower was usless at some point and the grenade launcher was used as a emergency.

Machine Gun well cause i had so much ammo for it

Ahhh... the long running tradition of RE games and their useless flamethrowers.

Good for killing 4 or 5 specialized creatures in a brief part of the game... throw it in an item box... forget it exists.

You can find a lot of Magnum Ammo for the Game, - by alot i mean below 20 Bullets.
The Magnum is very very powerfull - normally afaik it's used after clearing on Madhouse to unlock unlimited Ammo so can play again obtain the 9 Coins and then take the Magnum wich is unlocked EASY the first time you leave the "Mansion" no matter if Madhouse or not.

So the first Part will use "low" Weapons but then you get the Magnum and can storm through the entire Game.

use the drugs to scout out for hidden items :) better yet use the drugs, doo a sweep, reload the save and collect the items without using the drugs, rince and repeat ^^

The magnum feels like it's one of the weakest in the series. Someties even two body shots doesn't kill a stronger version of molded. I don't remember it being this weak. It's also less accurate. If you are willing to use it. I'd say albert is better. with enchanted ammo it doesn't do that much less damage and it's actually accurate so you can kill things with the crosshairs without stopping to aim.

I feel the Same ToveriJuri, the Headshot is very powerfull, - wich is enough for me cause if - you should always go for the Head.
Also the Firerate is lower but 7Bullets per Magazine is better then 3 even with +Dmg Ammo.
I Like the fact it's not instakill for all Parts of the body wich still adds a amount of "difficulty" to the kills - but it's true - it's weaker then typical.

All in all, after as I've finished the game (don't get confused by my Steam playtime because I've played the game as Steam was in offline mode due to the version I got was an RU key - played the game with 18 hours playtime), the Magnum bullets I've collected were eight bullets. Four of them are parts of a "treasure" in the game.

I found the magnum to be underwhelming. Has potential..but underwhelming. Circular Saw ftw.

Well i was able to collect 11 bullets in first playthrough without any problems by just looking casually around. - Most of them where at the Mines (i didn't include the once from the Treasurepicture at the Toilet)

I guess I'm going to keep looking on my next playthrough. Although the next would be on the Madhouse difficulty, wherein resources are scarcer.

I think there are two spawns for magnum ammo that do not change regardless of difficulty. One is the treasure toilet and the other is a barrel laying on it's side in the salt mines (You have to crouch to see the ammo) But we're talking like...4-6 shots max here..not worth the hassle to be honest.
