Its damn fun & does the right amount of damage. 2 shots to kill a militia gallente medium frame & 2 shots to kill an amarr (direct hit) & 2 whole magazines to kill adv heavies. The ion pistol..... i got killed with 1 charged shot of it, when i was in my 300 hp gal scout. So.... And... What can they do than an SMG can't do better and easier?
I thought so.

The gun itself once you get beyond its goofy stats is actually pretty decent - 12 decently damaging shots, or the option to charge for a pocket shotgun blast. With sharpshooter 5 and Gal Assault 5? Still not as accurate as the scrambler pistol.
I know, I have it. (Well, IV on both, not V)

Troll B. Idiot C. Didn't use the Ion Pistol/Didn't pay attention to it

The gun itself once you get beyond its goofy stats is actually pretty decent - 12 decently damaging shots, or the option to charge for a pocket shotgun blast. Have you ever actually used an ion pistol and Galassault combo? I would hope you realise how terrible the charge shot is, even once you can start hitting with it. Also, 12 50 damage shots is not sufficient to take out any remotely serious targets. Hell, a lot of scouts can tank entire direct hit clips now. Actually, yes, I have been using the galassault + ion pistol and quite enjoying it. I'm not saying it's perfect or the best weapon ever, but it is underrated - perhaps it would see more use if the sharpshooter skill was removed and weapon accuracy increased by 25% inherently, you'd probably see a lot more people packing it around then. It has terrible DPS, low damage per clip, poor accuracy, **** poor range and to top it all off it's extremely buggy.
I'm sorry but this pistol isn't worth using over literally anything else. Except for arguably the flaylock.
