My super weak pistol

[mongo]

I have been leveling all the weapons to go to tormenta and get the last chest.

I just got up to 17 on the Pistol.

I have been leveling on Padres beach and using 3 or 4 hex eater shots to burn of the gypsies vodoo and then they stand there while I use the weapon of choice on them. I get the major part of the points in the weapon I'm using but I also get a handful for the pistol too. It adds up after a while.

Now that I have Silver shot I can finally take down a Raider. I have tried with the cutlass and just kept getting cut to ribbons.

I have been putting the bulk of my skill points in Shoot and Take Aim (5 and 3). I also have 3 in Sharp Shooter and 2 in Eagle Eye. I only put one each in the different types of Ammo.

Sharp Shooter seems to be very valuable since I miss much less often (I was healing a guildmate while he leveled his pistol and I watched him miss 5 times in a row) even with only 3 points in it (maybe 1 shot in 20 or so misses)

Going forward I plan to fill Take Aim (levels 18 and 19), Get Steel Shot (level 20) and then after that fill sharp shooter with a few points left over.

Can anyone say if Dodge is worth it? I have its equivalent in the Cutlass and Vodoo doll (Parry and Spirit Sense) and they do pop up from time to time but it doesn't seem like it is something I would put too many points into. Maybe after I fill Sharp Shooter I'll stick a point in it.
