Smg ammo or Acid rounds?

[Wubbinz]

Which is more worth putting gun powder into in Claire B? I think it would be the Acid rounds because the smg doesn't seem that strong but what do you think?

[John Maylives]

I never had the problem coz I never even picked up my SMG. So I just dumped all that ammo and made pistol ammo instead ;D

SMG can be a very capable gun if its fully upgraded. But Acid rounds is very good against lickers and bosses.

I fully recommend the acid rounds. I didn't use the SMG often enough in my Claire B run to need to make ammo for it.

In my first Claire playthrough acid rounds didn't seem to do much to G4, SMG was much more effective (was saving the minigun for G5 for testing purposes).

I mostly find plenty of ammo in the game anyway. So yeah put those gunpowder towards acid rounds instead.

I've not had to kill a licker yet they're pretty easily avoided tbh.

Without upgrades the SMG is very bad. But with the upgrades is good against crowd control. Since standard SMG has very bad accuracy.

Acid is good against lickers/bosses but terrible against zombies since it doesn't stun them while the SMG is good against zombies and I'd imagine hitting bosses weak-points.

I'd go with acid rounds over peanut shooter (even if for some weird reason flame rounds are more effective than acid against Lickers in this game). If the peanut shooter had at least less spread it would be worth considering.

Feels like a waste to use two white gunpowders to create smg ammo, when acid ammo is even easier to create.

Tried the SMG yesterday for the first time on the second scenario on standard... And gee(hah, get it?)... I know willy aint much trouble, but this thing melted him.

Sorta, but not against regular zombies unless you get 3-4 with one shot.

SMG can be used to take down/de-limb multiple zombies that aren't right next to each other.

So it's more economical against zombies.

Same with Leon's shotgun/magnum, Magnum packs more punch but you can't get multiple zombies with one shot and you get more shotgun shells so you can kill more zombies.

I had to beat him with a knife because I didn't pick up her other weapons first time through the station xD

It's actually easier than you'd think for some reason knifing him staggers him a lot so he rarely gets an attack off.
