Talk:Throwing Knives

Trivia Note Question
"Does the weapon position change with resolution/aspect ratio? I used to aim the knives based on imaginary lines drawn from how the right one was being held, however that was on 4:3" Someone had this in the trivia section, anyone have an answer? I am but a humble Xbox player. Teddy Picker 05:30, January 19, 2012 (UTC)
 * Put a little piece of duct tape in the center of the screen to substitute for a crosshair. 14:37, January 19, 2012 (UTC)

Use in Ranger Mode
One thing that should be noted about the throwing knife in Ranger mode is you can use the knife handle in your left hand as a poor's man crosshair :D. Simply hold the button to throw the knife, but don't realese it yet. Then use the handle as your guide, as you can see in the photo.

The hardest targets to use this tatic are the moving ones, but with practice you will hit them 99% of the time.

I can't play the game anymore unless in ranger mode, sure one or two hits kill Artyom easely, but the revolver, Helsing and throwing knifes are my best friends now. Brfritos (talk) 21:29, January 15, 2013 (UTC)


 * Good to see you contributing to the wiki. I've actually never seen or heard of this method, so thanks for bringing it to light! Teddy Picker  00:34, January 16, 2013 (UTC)
