Overview
The R8 Revolver is a high-damage, slow-firing sidearm that's quite different from any other pistol in the game. With its unique trigger-pull firing mechanism, it requires precise timing and aim. While it can deal devastating damage, even to armored opponents, it is less forgiving of mistakes. The R8 Revolver is best suited for players who can confidently predict enemy movement and aim accurately, as its slow rate of fire leaves little room for error.
