The current problem this game faces is that pistols and snipers are good in PVP because of their range. However in PVE they are next to useless due to their low damage, and the higher your order of souls level the more health they get. You can shoot 5 bullets into a skeleton with a sniper rifle and they wont die, and happily cronch on a banana or shoot them 3 times with a pistol yet again making them eat a banana and waste more of your ammo. Such is why sword and blunderbuss reign supreme in almost all situations.
Now like i have said before in a previous thread, it would be good to have headshots in PVE, allowing massive damage to skeletons, and allowing pistols and sniper rifles to have a advantage over blunderbuss. A way to fix this with console players is have aim assist slightly target below the AI's headline like most other games do in these scenarios. Lets revive pistols and sniper rifles and give them purpose in PVE.
