Pros and Cons

Pros

Cons

• High recoil.
• Long reload times (2.5s manually and 3.5s with empty mag).
• Requires somewhat precise aim to deal high damage.
• Bad iron sights.

Trivia

• The binary code on the Pal 9000 skin reads "Kill Pathfinder".
• The Peacekeeper's codename is "energy_shotgun" and it shoots blue projectiles like energy weapons. This is due to the Peacekeeper's shells actually being batteries. Despite this, it does not use Energy Ammo for gameplay reasons.
