So, try to avoid shooting at players that are far away when you have a shotgun (unless you just need to get damage on someone). These generally fire a spread of bullets and are usually much weaker at long range.


If they are just running towards you then that's when you can just fire like crazy at them. Try to peak out just barely from cover and snap off a quick shot when possible. The key with pistols is to largely try to just aim for headshots and slow down your shots. That's pretty significant and makes them not too bad to use.

In other games I've seen people opt for a bright green that stands out pretty well. I, for instance, use a bright pink crosshair, because this shows up well on all backgrounds. Pick a color that doesn't show up often on any of the maps. You can do this in the Settings area of Arsenal under Display.
