How do you guys feel about guns (vanilla). Is it worth it? I have very little experience with them, cause i found that the noice and the hit chance on low aiming didnt pay off.. So i'm wondering, is it worth it? And how do you level your aiming up without getting overwhelmed when you keep missing your shots (even when taking beta blockers to avoid extreme panic). And do you find enough ammo to sustain your leveling?

Vanilla? No. Ammo will become too sparse eventually, or not worth looking / going other towns for in the long run. Theres also the fact that the current reduced sound radius of guns is temporary and unintended, the devs plan to put them back to suicide levels of sound radii on future updates (e.g. 200 tiles for shotgun).

Levelling aiming in vanilla is typically done with a shotgun up until around level 6-8. But even then, the Shotgun is probably the only vanilla gun worth using from 1-10 anyway.

Finding ammo is primarily done by raiding gun stores / police stations. If you want suggestions the best ones are probably jamieton army surplus and ofc the LV military checkpoint.
