The thing is, in singleplayer, one gun suffices. But what if there are multiple? The flintlock offers other players a firearm without having to break more orbs, and summoning the boss. A .5 gold price reduction wouldn't harm though.
well you dont unlock the arms dealer by breaking a shadow orb you get him by aquiring a gun, basically the same as demolitionist but with guns. anyways its even MORE useless if you consider that you got something like the boomstick from the jungle because it does like 4x damage for the same ammo cost
Good video, its true. Its should be buffed by either doing more damage (since the undertaker is literally a better version of the weapon), or maybe putting it into golden chests. Otherwise I don't really see the point in this item being in the game.
It incentivizes you to play well and not repeatedly die. If it was cheap and you could afford to buy it every time you die, it would defeat the purpose of Mediumcore. If you can't afford it, you can still risk your life in the Corruption and try your luck with the remaining Shadow Orbs, if there's any. In the other difficulties I agree that it's practically useless and outclassed by every other gun.
Honestly they should buff Flintlock's damage, give it better use speed and make it a pirates event drop. if we can autoswing anything now anyway its a good alternative to others like it, kinda like a weaker venus magnum if applied. I play modded with scaling to give such weapons a shot and they're fun to use, flintlock has served my "pirate-only" playthrough very well as an early game starter. I get why it's easily looked over, you might as well use undertaker over it. The whole requirements to get arms dealer are crap anyway, the stuff he sells (minus minishark) are all worse than the other crap you would have at that point. Boomstick outdamages most of them already and undertaker and musket are legit as good if not better than flintlock and other pistols. Something tells me RELOGIC didn't think it's use through enough, as I proposed it should be a pirates drop and get a buff or make it obtainable earlier than boomstick or undertaker. make a shipwreck or something and have it in a chest within or something
Bro in multiplayer open servers this is a life saver it take only 5 gold and its almost the only long range teliable wepon at that point in master mode large world getting into world evil type hear or orb is near impossible with starter gear
In multiplayer open servers, there's gotta be at least a chestful of ranged weapons that are 100 times better than this, which you can just yoink for free.

Why tho? Just give em a bow, it's free, and similar dps.

ruler (the weapon)
One use the Flintlock Pistol has is being an easily acquirable gun if you die as a Mediumcore character and lose your only Musket.
That doesn't justify the 5 gold price tho.

How to make a multibiome cavern creatures farm in terraria please 🙏🙏🙏
How toh make a multibiome cavern creatures farm in terraria please 🙏🙏🙏
is having to destroy a shadow orb required? cuz i think the arms dealer can move in even if you get the boomstick from the jungle
No it's not a requirement, you only need a gun, but you get my point.
the boomsticks even better though right?
@@frostbitedragon9 absolutely.
Nice video, but holy shit the music is so loud
Really? Oh shit, my bad.
Unlucky views
