How to Dual Wield Weapons
Saints Rowallows players to dual-wield weapons as a perk. Perks are various upgrades to the player which can alter their play style. Players can have a maximum of two minor perks, two major perks, and an elite perk, which must be unlocked via money on the player’s cellphone.
Players can unlock perks by completing challenges within the game, which are slowly released to players as they progress.The dual-wielding perk is only available in the latter part of the game as it’s the 20th perk players can unlock, meaning players will have to complete a bunch of challenges before grabbing the perk.
Dual Wielding inSaints Rowis a major perk and will require the player to purchase the first major perk slot for $25,000 or the second for $100,000.
Challenges can be found on the in-game phone andoffer side objectivesforSaints Rowplayerswhile they progress through the story. These side objectives can vary from carjacking, taking photos, and buying outfits.
Each challenge contains multiple side objectives for players to complete; for example, one challenge may require one to travel a certain amount on foot and acertain amount via car. Completing these two side objectives will grant the player the Sightseer Challenge. And completing challenges gives players experience.
Players will need to complete 19 challenges at least to unlock the Dual Wielding perk. It’s a good idea for players to choose a strategy on how to progress through their challenge log, as some challenges may only require two side objectives instead of three. However, some side objectives are much easier to perform than others, so players may opt to pick a challenge with more side objectives as they might be less time-consuming.
What Weapons Can Players Dual Wield
Once the player has the Dual Wielding perk equipped, they’ll automatically equip a second weapon. However, regardless of how wackySaints Row 2022can be, the developers only allow players to dual-wield weapons of the SMG or pistol class. So unfortunately players aren’t able to duel wield some of the best weapons like rocket launchers or sniper rifles and wreak absolute havoc.
Dual Wielding weapons will double the magazine of the weapon being used; however, it also doubles the fire rate and the rate at which players consume ammo. However, dual-wielding weapons also double the player’s damage output and can really allow for some mayhem.
Saints Rowis available now for PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC.
