It is slightly worse for DPS than the [[autopistol]] at all ranges. But unlike the autopistol, the revolver has a high enough stopping power to stagger advancing [[human]]s or [[Lancer|human-]][[Scyther|sized]] [[mechanoid]]s. It is better than the [[bolt-action rifle]] for close ranged combat - when combat happens < 12 tiles away. |
Despite having a decent range, the revolver isn't particularly suited to medium-range engagements, which is around 15 or more tiles. A [[bolt-action rifle]] or [[greatbow]] are better at range, and even the [[recurve bow]] can keep up. It's best suited as a close-quarters weapon, and can stagger pawns attempting to close distance. As a hunting weapon, the bolt action rifle is better, but a revolver still fairs decent results. | Despite having a decent range, the revolver isn't particularly suited to medium-range engagements, which is around 15 or more tiles.

Against an unarmored human, a revolver can kill with 4 hits to the torso, 3 hits to the head, 2 hits to the neck or 1 hit to the brain; cripple or destroy limbs in 3 hits; and cripple or destroy eyes and digits with a single hit. It'll generally take around 6 hits (~15.5 seconds average) to incapacitate that human from pain shock. | Against an unarmored human, a revolver can kill with 4 hits to the torso, 3 hits to the head, 2 hits to the neck or 1 hit to the brain; cripple or destroy limbs in 3 hits; and cripple or destroy eyes and digits with a single hit.
