How to Use the Silenced Submachine Gun
Ideal for Stealth
The Silenced Submachine Gun is great for stealth as it makes minimal firing noise, making it difficult for enemies to detect. However, enemies might notice you if they aren't taken down in one shot. So, focus on headshots when using it for stealth.
Best Used for Single Head Shots
Due to the lower damage per shot of the Silenced Submachine Gun, it is recommended to aim for headshots whenever possible.
Continuously firing consumes ammunition quickly, so it is best to focus on single shots. Pressing the R2 button lightly, similar to a quick tap, allows you to fire a single shot.
Other Information
High Fire Rate and Silent
The Silenced Submachine Gun has a fast fire rate and high damage. Additionally, it is equipped with a silencer, which constantly suppresses the firing sound. Unlike pistols, this silencer cannot be removed.
Cannot be Upgraded
The Silenced Submachine Gun is the only weapon in Ellie's arsenal that cannot be upgraded. While its performance cannot be improved, it is a powerful weapon that is already complete when you get it.
