Guns in Shadows of Doubt are everywhere, along with all kinds of oth🐲er weapons and firearms. It won't be long before you're stumbling across smoking rifles, dropped pistols, bloody knives, and even katanas, but you can't use all of these weapons, sorry to say - or at least, while you can use a gun to attack somebody, you can't pull the trigger. Below, we'll explain the rules on what weapons you can and can't use, as well as the best weapon in Shadows of Doubt to date.
How to use weapons in Shadows of Doubt
Shadows of Doubt lets you use weapons and guns - but only as blunt melee objects. You cannot fire guns in Shadows of Doubt, but you can pistol whip people with the🦂m, or just more appropriate melee items like katanas, truncheons and 🤡even syringes. There's even single-use non-lethal explosives that players can throw.
The damage done by melee weapons i🤡sn't the same across the board - swords and katanas do more damage than bats or hitting somebody with a pistol, for example. The sword appears to be the most powerful weapon in the game so far, able to knock down many enemies with a single strike.
However, this means that if you find a gun, it's more likely to be a clue than a weapon for you to use - a murderer must have 🔜a murdꦺer weapon, after all. Examining the body can tell you what kind of weapon was used to kill it, so finding a matching firearm or instrument can help you identify the killer.
More importantly, despite many weapons seeming lethal, none of these will kill NPCs permanently, just knocking them unconscious like your fists do, only faster. If you're not good at the game's stealth, or looked up 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:how to arrest peo﷽ple in Shadows of Doubt and want to take the violent approach, it migh🗹t be worth keeping a m🌸elee weapon on you.
