Valorant Weapons Guide | Classic
The BP-9 Classic is a Sidearm in Valorant.
Summary
The Classic is that the pistol that each one players receive upon spawning.
Compared to most other weapons, the Classic does a meager amount of injury . However, its nonexistent tag makes it effective for rounds during which the player or team wishes to save lots of credits for later rounds.
Due to its low damage output, the Classic requires more shots than most so as to attain a kill. Typically, a player with the Classic must hit two or three shots to the top , 7 to the body, or 8 to the legs.
The Classic has an alternate fire (right-click default). It fires a three-shot burst with moderate spread. thanks to this unique mechanic, the Classic is fairly versatile and is viable at both short and medium ranges. This flexibility gives it a foothold over other secondary weapons, which usually are only fitted to a specific target range . for instance , the Shorty and Frenzy are viable almost exclusively at short ranges, while the Ghost and Sheriff are typically used for mid-range combat.
Players using the Classic must use the alternate fire with caution, because it uses up ammunition at an elevated rate compared to the weapon’s primary fire.
Trivia
- The Classic’s design seems to be based on the Beretta PX4 Storm, with the angled slide bevel and partially skeletonized hammer being unique characteristics shared by both pistol.
