So, I’ve been looking for a way to get Plasma Pistol kills and have yet to find a decent strategy. Obviously the plasma pistol is really hard to get kills with so its not like anyone is getting tons of kills with it…but I was just curious if any has found a decent strategy to maybe get a couple kills per match with it?
The best way I have so far is Charge shot -> hide while cool down -> spam fire plasma pistol at the person without shields and hope you get the kill.
Melee them or remove the shields with another weapon and spam the hell out of the PP since it doesnt have enough shots before a overheat to deal with both shields and health.
Yeah thats decent. I think going with melee first would show a lower rate of successful plasma kills b/c 80% of players just melee back, and before you get those 6 shots of or whatever it takes, they will get a head shot on you with BR or DMR.
Take their shields out with a assault rifle(don’t get to close) then retreat and shoot them with showers of plasma bullets.

It’s difficult to do. Try multi team since it’s fun anyway and you may get the odd kill amongst the carnage since not many people will be able to 1SK you.
I was kinda of thinking also, about using the storm rifle because that would take out there shields fast, then switch to Pistol and spam fire.
And yeah go in multi team and hope for those cheap lucky kills is a good idea.

Best done with a friend though (not the PP part) and Multi team is good for getting loads of kills with any loadout weapon. It’s helped me get nearly every loadout weapon near master (still have to complete though.)
someone here posted 2 shots with the PP then melle then 1 more shot with PP kills someone
I did it
regicide + AR + hologram
lower shields then finish off with pp.
you need to catch players off guard or hurt. in regicide get maps which spawn with over shields grab them and try to watch the timer in game to get the next respawns.
it gets easier the more you grind and it’s probably best to back out of try hard lobbies.
the most frustrating thing is players constantly steal your kills as once shields are dropped it takes one headset with other weapons but 5 with your PP
Happy grinding!
Another good strategy for Plasma Pistol kills is to:
-
Shoot them TWICE with the PP
-
Melee ONCE
-
Shoot ONCE
And that will kill them easily provided they don’t kill you first and they have full shields and health.
