Swords...
- "Swords are so much easier to maintain."
Dialogue
- Gunther: Swords do make for better "wives" after all... Lohen totally hit the nail on the head with that joke. Muskets are such a chore to maintain in comparison...
Not a fan of muskets here, are we?
- Gunther: No, I don't mean it that way. This thing works really well. If you're a good shot, you can pick off monsters from afar without them even realizing you're there.
- Gunther: It's just that... Firing it may be a blast, but keeping it in working condition is also a real pain...
- Gunther: Even though the latest smokeless powder does cut down on the soot, you still have to run a cleaning patch through the barrel and chamber every day.
- Gunther: One slip-up with the gun oil, and you've got a greasy mess all over your hands. And after every 370 rounds or so fired, you have to strip the whole thing and really clean every part.
- Gunther: It wouldn't be such a headache if the gunsmiths from Support Company were around.
- Gunther: The thing is, Ranged Company operates differently than the others. We're usually split into smaller teams and sent to other units to boost their combat effectiveness...
- Gunther: The gunsmiths can't follow us around all the time. And when the fighting gets intense, we have to disassemble the musket and clean it every day.
- What if you don't use regular rounds?
- Gunther: You mean... Use elemental projectiles instead, like the Fatui Skirmishers? *sigh* You think too highly of us.
- Gunther: While our muskets are indeed based on technology from Snezhnaya, Fontaine, and Mondstadt, we're still missing certain core components that'd allow us to match the Fatui.
- Gunther: Want regular folks like us to make use of elemental energy? You might as well get a squirrel to operate the jukebox at The Flagship.
- Gunther: Unless we're talking some out-of-the-box solution, like packing the elemental components into a container and then chucking the whole thing... Based on my limited experience, there's not much we can do at this time.
- I'll leave you to your musket cleaning then...
- Lohen?
- Gunther: Yeah, our... vice captain. A powerhouse on the battlefield, a total enigma off it. A vice captain truly on the level of a captain.
- Gunther: I've been deployed alongside him on several assault missions in the past.
- Gunther: For hard targets and the larger monsters, the marksmen from Ranged Company typically open fire from a distance of two to three hundred paces.
- Gunther: But when we're facing the occasional enemy that cannot be taken down easily with a burst of focused fire, this distance becomes far from safe for us as shot dispersion and energy retention won't be ideal.
- Gunther: And once the enemy closes in on us, they put us on the back foot. That's when the vice captain steps in to create favorable firing conditions for us...
- Gunther: What he likes to do is to pin down the biggest threats on the firing line. That way, the rest of us can keep firing until the job is done.
- Gunther: You can say that distance is safety in our case, and the vice captain is the rock that keeps us out of the enemy's reach.
- I'll leave you to your musket cleaning then...
- Gunther: *sigh* I should just pawn this off to Koch or Herstal.
Trivia
