id like a range buff on the frog. its like an fbw and .45 put together

Its a 45 til 11m, and an fbw up to like 23m.... seems fine to me.

[Bellenettiel 232]

i honestly like the .45 just for the way it feels, even though i likely work best with an fbw

[Nitronik 348]

I'm bad at the game so FBW

Otherwise .45 all day

[Amaineko 20]

fbw sd.

.45 is a 50/50 hitreg for me

[Chinook 144]

It's a tricky question.

 

It depends.

 

If I'm feelin' confident and on top of my game, then .45 is the obvious choice...

 

However, more often than not you'll find yourself not feeling that conficence (or not getting the results you want) and thus feel strangely drawn into FBW...

 

In simple terms, I'd put it this way: if .45 isn't workin' for you at the moment, there's always the FallBackWeapon. So even if your instinct is to prefer .45, you're likely to cling onto the FBW unless you can be precise as a gosh darn with the .45...

 

Before range limitations were introduced to APB, I was approaching maining FBW and using CCG as my secondary...

As an OBIR player, 1 burst + .45 = Mmmmmmmm. ^^

Imo you're better off with the fbw as a sidearm for the OBIR since you'll require +3 hits with either pistol for a kill iirc.

 

Overall I'd clearly have to go for the .45, though. I switch to fbw when my .45 aim decides to not exist.

I like the idea, but I have like the sensation if they just add  something like +10/15m (the actual range for damage drop off is 10m) it will be a little OP.. but in my weak opinion It will be widely more competitive or meta if it's range is 13/15 m...

 

If u want use a secondary that is something close to OVERPOWERED from 0-7m, this BEAST has never let me disappointed    https://apbdb.com/items/Weapon_Pistol_NFA9_PR1/

No.

1 burst will allow either pistol to kill in 3 shots, but the FBW barely breaks 1k damage and the .45 is more forgiving against CA3. Besides, the damn thing was like $40 or something when it came out for account wide, lol.

No for what excatly?

 

In my (little) opinion, after several years the main  reason the fr0g isnt excatly a meta gun in game, it's for the range matter.

 

If u want a good secondary very good at close range, the choose list is close on something like nfa9 or showstopper

I personally don't switch to my secondary beyond the fbw's drop off range, you're better off doing at least 2 bursts with the OBIR unless up close. I guess that's personal preference, but I'm pretty certain for most players obir+fbw will be more rewarding than obir+.45.

 

Also the .45 was attainable for free through the refer-a-friend system if I'm not wrong, I think that's when I got it.

[ExoticZ 131]

I prefer the FBW in most scenarios. It's alot more forgiving and handles quite easily.

Sometimes its fun to pull out the .45 though.

Ya, I'm talking like 5-15 meters where you won't be able to do 2 bursts. ^^

 

That's awesome, mine was like 4k G1C or something insane!

I personally love the FBW but it looks like shit and has no reskins for whatever god damn reason so the .45 wins it cause its a 1911, even though FBW is more reliable cause Im a trash player  :^)

Roles aren't important at this point, the problem is that Baylan activities do not count, so normal FBW is useless there.
