| - Accessories are things like clips and weapon enhancements. Clips are the ammunition for all types of guns in the game. There is only one type of clip, and it is sold in every weapon store. Weapon enhancements, such as silencers and gas vents, are also sold in each weapon store in the game. The setup of each entry is pretty straightforward: The name of the item, which type of gun it can be used on, the price scale(s), the in-game description and any notes. Unlike the Equipment List, there is no "Also Available" field for each entry. That's because the only one that is available elsewhere is the clip. Clips will often be dropped by slain enemies and can be found inside safes in corpses as well. Also, there is no "Buy At" field either, since all items are available at each weapon store: Crime Mall, Ares Weapon Emporium, and Weapons World. Of course, they can have varying prices at each store. +----------------------------------+--------------+-----------+---------------+ | GAS VENT II | Pistols: No | SMGs: Yes | Shotguns: No | +----------------------------------+--------------+-----------+---------------+ |Price at Ares Weapon Emporium and Weapons World (at each Negotiation rating):| | 0-2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | |------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ | | 900 872 844 816 788 760 732 704 676 648 620 | | | |Price at Crime Mall (at each Negotiation rating): | | 0-2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | |------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ | | 450 436 422 408 394 380 366 352 338 324 310 | This is a recoil compensation system to keep an SMG on line with its target by venting explosive gasses to counter the climb of the barrel. This isn't all that useful since the Gas Vent III (below) only costs a few hundred more. +----------------------------------+--------------+-----------+---------------+ | GAS VENT III | Pistols: No | SMGs: Yes | Shotguns: No | +----------------------------------+--------------+-----------+---------------+ |Price at Ares Weapon Emporium and Weapons World (at each Negotiation rating):| | 0-2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | |------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ | | 1,400 1,357 1,314 1,271 1,228 1,185 1,142 1,099 1,056 1,013 970 | | | |Price at Crime Mall (at each Negotiation rating): | | 0-2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | |------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ | | 700 679 658 637 616 595 574 553 532 511 490 | This is a recoil compensation system to keep an SMG on line with its target by venting explosive gasses to counter the climb of the barrel. This is a worthwhile item, as all weapon accessories are. Having one of these will improve your accuracy somewhat. Nothing really dramatic, but it's worth buying when you get a few extra hundred nuyen to spend. +----------------------------------+--------------+-----------+---------------+ | LASER SIGHT | Pistols: Yes | SMGs: Yes | Shotguns: No | +----------------------------------+--------------+-----------+---------------+ |Price at Ares Weapon Emporium (at each Negotiation rating): | | 0-2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | |------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ | | 500 485 470 455 440 425 410 395 380 365 350 | | | |Price at Crime Mall (at each Negotiation rating): | | 0-2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | |------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ | | 600 582 564 546 528 510 492 474 456 438 420 | | | |Price at Weapons World (at each Negotiation rating): | | 0-2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | |------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ | | 300 291 282 273 264 255 246 237 228 219 210 | As the in-game description hints at, the Laser Sight is basically a poor man's Smartgun System. If your character has a Smartlink or Smart Goggles, then just save up for a Smartgun. If not, though, this is a fine choice. You can always upgrade—buying a Smartgun System will simply replace the Laser Sight. The opposite will not work: once your weapon has a Smartgun System installed you won't be able to replace it with a Laser Sight. +----------------------------------+--------------+-----------+---------------+ | SILENCER | Pistols: Yes | SMGs: No | Shotguns: No | +----------------------------------+--------------+-----------+---------------+ |Price at Ares Weapon Emporium and Weapons World (at each Negotiation rating):| | 0-2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | |------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ | | 500 485 470 455 440 425 410 395 380 365 350 | | | |Price at Crime Mall (at each Negotiation rating): | | 0-2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | |------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ | | 400 388 376 364 352 340 328 316 304 292 280 | This upgrade is Very affordable, and very useful for Pistol users. Silenced weapons won't offer a very significant combat advantage, but will make corp runs a lot easier because of the alarm avoidance. +----------------------------------+--------------+-----------+---------------+ | SMARTGUN SYSTEM | Pistols: Yes | SMGs: Yes | Shotguns: No | +----------------------------------+--------------+-----------+---------------+ |Price at Ares Weapon Emporium and Crime Mall (at each Negotiation rating): | | 0-2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | |------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ | | 800 775 750 725 700 675 650 625 600 575 550 | | | |Price at Weapons World (at each Negotiation rating): | | 0-2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | |------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ | | 600 582 564 546 528 510 492 474 456 438 420 | This is probably the best weapon accessory available. Smartguns are significantly more accurate than normal guns, especially when paired with a true Smartlink, and not just Smart Goggles. The Laser Sight is nice, but you should upgrade to a Smartgun System as soon as you have the money for the item and the cyberware required. +----------------------------------+--------------+-----------+---------------+ | SOUND SUPPRESSOR | Pistols: No | SMGs: Yes | Shotguns: No | +----------------------------------+--------------+-----------+---------------+ |Price at Ares Weapon Emporium (at each Negotiation rating): | | 0-2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | |------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ | | 1,500 1,454 1,408 1,362 1,316 1,270 1,224 1,178 1,132 1,086 1,040 | | | |Price at Crime Mall (at each Negotiation rating): | | 0-2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | |------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ | | 750 727 704 681 658 635 612 589 566 543 520 | | | |Price at Weapons World (at each Negotiation rating): | | 0-2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | |------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ | | 1,400 1,357 1,314 1,271 1,228 1,185 1,142 1,099 1,056 1,013 970 | Just as the Silencer is almost a necessity for Pistols, so is the Sound Suppressor for SMGs. Again, not so much for the slight combat advantage it gives you, but for the way it will simplify your corp runs. +----------------------------------+--------------+-----------+---------------+ | UNIVERSAL GUN CLIPS | Pistols: Yes | SMGs: Yes | Shotguns: Yes | +----------------------------------+--------------+-----------+---------------+ |Price at Ares Weapon Emporium (at each Negotiation rating): | | 0-2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | |------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ | | 25 25 25 25 25 25 25 25 25 25 25 | | | |Price at Crime Mall (at each Negotiation rating): | | 0-2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | |------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ | | 50 49 48 47 46 45 44 43 42 41 40 | | | |Price at Weapons World (at each Negotiation rating): | | 0-2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 | |------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ ------ | | 40 39 38 37 36 35 34 33 32 31 30 | Make sure to pay attention to the prices at different stores when stocking up on ammo. The prices will vary, and the effect is greater when you're buying 20 or 30 at a time. Note also that the price at Ares is constant throughout the entire game, regardless of your Negotiation rating. Not only that, but it's the cheapest price available anywhere. To buy them anywhere else would be ripping yourself off.
