If you are using a shotgun or a sniper rifle , you should be more worried about dictating range using cover than having a pistol . Grenadiers are meant to be a support weapon for area denial and funneling enemies . The cloaking kit is great for shotguns when you are trying to close range easier , and the grapplecloak if you are trying to find good places to setup . After reviewing Grenadier weapons , these weapons can funtion as both antititan and antipilot weapons . They aren ' t the best at either , but a lot can one hit pilots if direct hit , and a couple near misses can still kill them . Honestly , I ' ve seen pistols and they are pretty good . I ' ve used the titan weapons to kill players as well , and if you don ' t mind the contrail , you can practically snipe with the AntiTitan laser once you are use to the charge time . I don ' t feel the need to have both a pistol and antititan weapon .
