Acid Pistol
The Acid is one of the many Pistols in the Evolution: Battle for Utopia game.
LET`S ROCK!
My scientists have studied the remains of the creature called Overlord and constructed an acid-shooting pistol. Its bullets can erode the strongest armor!

It`s the Overlord, the most hideous creature on Utopia!
Elizabeth
I would add that among all the life forms we ever met here this is one of the most both difficult and interesting for the research.
We are facing a creature with the unique physiology being able to produce dangerous parasites at an amazing rate and then to control them!
Figuratively speaking, the Overlord use the parasites as its soldiers being itself a kind of headquarters and the army training center at the same time.
There is nothing equal on Earth. We are dealing with the evolution peak of similar biological systems.
Commander
Now this creature being so unique, maybe we can make a profit of studying it.
Elizabeth
I`ve carried out a visual study and got promising preliminary results.
I think when I`m through, we`ll be able to use the study data for the creation of a pioneering organic acid-shooting weapon.

Is this pistols damage the same as regular pistol’s damage? Or 28 of acid damage is more than 28 of regular damage?
Damage from the single hit is the same!
So what is the advantage of having such a pistol (or any other like Dragon, for example) if the damage is the same and they are way more expensive?
The advantage is in the delayed extra damage for Armored targets
Other advantages also maybe in fire-rate and/or reload speed and ultimately in total dealing damage (in a minute)
But not in this case – the Acid Pistol is very slow by all terms
Sorry to reply here but I don’t know if it’s possible to send you a private message.
I have made a video fighting Maximus turret Boss in Black Legion Base. If I send you the video (youtube), can it be posted in the Maximus Boss Walthrough??? As the other that is already there?
HelloShitty,
Too bad that you don’t read your e-mail )
ONLY good reason is the fact that it can attack armored targets for full (actually 130%) damage, whereas bulldog and “normal” pistols cannot damage armored targets at all exept for aimed shots.
that makes it great for taking out turrets and armored enemies, and a must have weapon for early game. equip it for fights against turrets, and when i know armored target is coming in next battle
But also in early stages of the game it’s not easy to get crystallite to fully upgrade the acid pistol
suprisingly.. i have made enough to max the damage and have 3/5 ammo upgrades in less than 24 hours… just need to pick crystal as mission rewards and hack the dominators…
i am level 14 atm…. did most of the farming at 13 though– level 13 only “armored” enemy from the terror missions is L4 terror shield guy. i could clear all of them out without using single healing and for most part only with pistol.
I’ve also fully upgraded already 2 weapons. Buldog Pistol that I used a lot and also Storm AR which is the most powerful weapon I have so far. I’m now upgrading Dragon Pistol (already did the 1st upgrade till max damage) and I’m doing now the critical chance after have done 1 upgrade to have 8 shots in a row. After I have completed critical damage I’ll finish the magazine upgrade. But it’s also hard to get the skill points.
Ok, I’ve just finished to fully upgrade my Acid Pistol but I still can’t take down Hydras using it and U2 medpacks and G2-Frags… I think I need a lot more of practice!
Or better, I can take them down, the problem is the rest of the units that comes along after the turret!
I’ve answered your other comment. Also, are you planning to take Rico? He might be usefull against armored enemies.
I’ve not researched Rico yet! I was trying to make some stock of resources to finishing to build my 6 Black Hydras and I was trying to keep me as low level as I can until they are all built (only 2 Black Hydras are missing).
I also have enough skill points to research Maximus turrets but those will be built later because I think my Storage Depot is not still big enough to build Maximus Turrets (missing a few hours to finish researching level 10 of Storage Depot).
Well, it’s your choice what turret to use in defense )
Many people think that turrets helps attacking player to prepair for the final commandor coming out.
What about me, I have only 5 Hephestus and 1 Hydra.
And, having a Moloh machine gun, I see that my demage in defense is about equal when opponent meets my Hydra, or when he meets me from the start oh the battle.
I’m planning to build Black Hydras and I think it’ll be enouth. Maximus is a very powerfull turret, but it has a weackness to born three bombers after death.
I use this moment to wait for all my abilities to be ready and enemy’s Commandor usually has no chances.
I think Black Hydra is much better in this way.
I think I didn’t understood what weaknesses you said Maximus turrets has!
And you think that Black Hydras are enough until, let’s say, from here to (not until the very end) a long time forward in the game ?
I’ll answer you in the PVP theme, OK?
Sure! Let me look where’s PvP theme!![:)](http://evo-wiki.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/simple-smile.png)
Archipelago PVP – Regular Attacks
It will be more logics if acid pistol is created by bomber queen !
The acid shotgun is created by the bomber queen
It would be nice if there was an acid pistol 2
Ou peut on trouver le pistolet acide dans quelle zone car j ai un fusil à pompe acide en attente de trouver le pistolet acide
Il faut tuer le Maitre (overlord) en face à face quand il attaque ta base, il ne faut surtout pas utiliser le missile phénix.
Cool gun, used it and it’s amazing! It’s a one of its kind pistol,
Again you can use the acid shotgun and acid MG, but it’s better to use acid pistol because you can get it easily by defeating/nuking it
Another must have weapon. Do not throw it away until you get UFO
Does anyone know how to get the acid pistol?
For some reason I have the acid shotgun and it says I can’t research it until I get the acid pistol, but I haven’t been able to get that pistol for some reason.
The Only way to get the acid pistol research is by killing the Overlord boss which sometimes appears at your base, if you kill it in face to face combat (not with a missile) you will be awarded the acid pistol research
Are you able to get the acid pistol after missing the overlord.
yes, even if you miss the overlord he will return eventually after a random amount of time
SAMz, of course, coz Оverlord will come back
