TheHunter: Call of the Wild - Weapon Pack 2 Review (Snydrex)
My Review of Weapon Pack #2:
Out of all the weapon packs so far, even until the emerald coast update, this one certainly may be the best. And for a simple reason: The Drilling rifle is adaptable.
Grelck Drilling Gun-
- Using any 16-gauge shotgun ammo, it already covers every standard needed for a good 2-shot double barrel shotgun.
- The unique single shot 9.3x74R ammo covers classes 5-9, all late prey classes, making it possible to forgo a rifle entirely for a hunting setup.
- The ammo itself isn't very accurate and is affected by bullet drop a little more then dedicated alternatives in the rifle category, but is more then sufficient for any situation with large game. The ammo itself is expensive, $610 and $880 for 10x expansion and penetration bullets respectively.
- Comes with a unique drilling scope you can put on the gun.
Overall: Incredible gun. This weapon alone makes the pack worth it.
Solokhin MN1890-
- 7.62 Ammo is somewhat versatile, having similar penetration and expansion, with one of the only ammo types where there is no choice between two types meant for a specific purpose. Covering classes 3-7, this rifle covers a sizeable amount of animals within the game, just short of being able to hunt moose without harvest check penalty. Relatively cheap at $380, too.
- Normal bolt-action reload timing, not too long or short.
- Compatible with most rifle scopes.
Overall: Decent, feels good to shoot. Handsome and good for any nagant fan.
(Note: I have a glitch where the insides of the firing chamber show potentially broken vertexes when reloading with this gun. I do not know if this is my problem alone, but I do hope it will be fixed.)
Mangiafico 410 revolver:
- .45 Flat nose hard cast bullets priced average at $530, covering classes 2-5, good for all small game.
- The ,410 Birdshot capacity is surprisingly useful, the gun having more capacity then most shotguns in the game, makes it a very good option for downing flocks rapidly. Ammo is cheap, $200.
- Worth mentioning that I wish most guns had the same skin variation that this one does.
Overall: Solid and creative option to current sidearms, and the skins are nice.
Verdict: Get this pack for the Drilling rifle. The nagant is okay, the pistol has a unique gimmick, this makes the weapon pack alone worth the price. I hope that the Nagant glitch I keep seeing is fixed, but it may just be me. I have no friends.
