Grand Theft Auto IV: The Lost and Damned - Arms - game guide, walkthrough, secrets, game tips & strategies

The Lost and Damned adds few new, interesting types of arms. Here they are.

1. Grenade Launcher – a great alternative to RPG launcher. Johnny can wear many missiles for it. This type of weapon works well when we fight against cars and bigger groups of people. You have to learn how to use it, because firsts grenades tend to roll on the ground after they fall on it (and this can decrease the precision of the shot). Moreover, you have to learn how to use walls to bounce off the missiles.

2. Assault Shotgun – a perfect gun for short distances. If you fire few shots, one after another, you will eliminate every enemy – no matter if he stands on his own feet or stays in the car. Notice the big magazine of this gun.

3. Sawed-Off Shotgun – a gun which has relatively small combat effectiveness (when compared to Assault Shotgun). However Sawed-Off Shotgun is cheap and, what is more important, can be used while driving a car or motorcycle.

4. Pipe Bombs – an alternative for regular grenades. Bombs are thrower arms, you can “shorten the fuse” by holding a bomb longer in our hand after pressing the detonator. You can use it while driving. Pipe Bombs work well against police cars which try to catch Johnny.

5. Automatic 9mm – If you don’t have a machine gun, use automatic gun. This gun is relatively seldom used in the battle, however it is good to have it in case the ammunition for other toys finishes. Moreover, it is surely better than the gun from the basic version of the game.

6. Pool Cue – as you can see in the picture above, Pool Cue is not available in Terry’s offer. However you can find it in every bar which offers pool. Using pool cue is the same as using the baseball bat. The level of effectiveness is also comparable.
