Aklex

Dual Lex pistols double the amount of high caliber lead you can throw at the enemy, but accuracy and reload time suffer.

The Aklex are a pair of Lex pistols. Compared to a single Lex, the Aklex have a higher rate of fire and magazine size. However, they have no polarity slot, lower accuracy, and a slower reload speed.

Notes[edit | edit source]

Despite the description of the Aklex saying that its reload time suffers, its actual reload time is quite efficient, spanning a mere 1.27 times its original reload duration, as most akimbo pistols have twice the reload time.
Despite the accuracy mentioned in its statistics is poor, its actual accuracy is quite impressive, even when against long-ranged targets, leaving only the recoil to be held responsible for this.

Tips[edit | edit source]

A Stunning Speed mod synergizes well with this weapon, reducing its long reload and increasing its high status chance further (although not by much).
Steady Hands makes the Aklex's high recoil much easier to control and allow for more accurate shots on the target in a shorter span of time without having to readjust after shots as often.
