    Another South Kyrat P416 Weapon location Discovered

    The following popped up last night in game play. Did a search, and didn't find any previous hits that indicated this has been brought up:

    Spoiler:  Show
    Location Cragway Rest can spawn two unarmored Royal Guards looting a dead civilian. Will leave it as this, for others to do with as they wish in their game play. The key word is "can", not "will always" ...

    Nice discovery!
    Could you please give a coordinates or some landmark nearby, so those who don't remember this location won't have to scour entire map? Thanks.

    Confirmed, went to that location and 2 Royal Guards spawned there.

    P.S. On the other hand, who needs P416?.. In my opinion, STG-90 is better, in spite of lower fire rate...
    I don't see a point in using unsilenced ARs anyway.

    I agree, in FC4 the STG-90 has better stats than P416 (unlike FC3). Those are the listed stats, but has anyone really noticed that much difference? I've yet to run any "in-game" tests.

    Unfortunately in vanilla the STG-90 does not have extended magazine option, but on the other hand I also prefer the lower rate of fire.

    In any case, something for discovery that doesn't require going all the way to the north tower, if the interest is for a P416 earlier than getting the Z93 sniper rifle.

    I'm afraid you're mistaken here, it actually does:

    My bad - right, it does. I forgot that you can't have the red dot sight at the same time. Logically makes no sense since they would naturally go hand-n-hand.
