Otar's Revolver is a variant of the Mustang Arms .357 Magnum revolver and a weapon in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. It is the personal weapon of Otar Botkoveli.

Characteristics[]

Otar's Revolver comes pre-equipped with a 4x scope and is unique in being the only side arm that uses a scope. Unlike the standard revolver, but similar to the Classic .357 Magnum Revolver, Otar's Revolver accepts only armor piercing rounds.

Other major differences from the other revolver variants are summarized below:

  • Otar's Revolver has nominal damage rating of 70, which is much higher than the standard revolver's base nominal damage rating of 50. However, actual damage per shot is the same as the standard revolver prior to damage upgrades.[1]
  • Since Otar's Revolver does not have any damage upgrades, it deals less damage per hit than the fully upgraded standard revolver. For example, against turrets, Otar's Revolver only inflicts about 55% of the damage that a fully upgraded standard revolver inflicts.[1]
  • Magazine size is limited to 5 rounds and cannot be upgraded.
  • Similarly, rate of fire cannot be upgraded, making it the slowest-firing revolver variant when upgrades are taken into consideration.
  • Has the highest recoil of all revolver variants.
  • Has a maximum range of 65 meters, the longest of the three revolver variants.

Due to its lack of damage upgrades, as well as its high recoil and slow rate of fire, Otar's Revolver is a specialized weapon that is notable mainly for its scope.

Otar's Revolver has the same damage drop-off over distance as the standard revolver. For instance, Otar's Revolver inflicts about 40% less at 23 meters as compared to 2 meters.[1] This drop-off is steeper than that of rifle-type weapons, and limits the effectiveness of Otar's Revolver over longer distances.

Acquisition[]

  • The weapon can be obtained only by looting it from Otar's body after killing or knocking him out, either in his casino during the first visit to Prague (visited during the mission "The Calibrator"), or inside the Dvali Theater during the third visit to Prague. Otar can also appear in the Theatre during the second visit to Prague if he was not spoken to during the first visit.

Trivia[]

  • The Classic and Otar's .357 variants have the upgraded barrel of the explosive rounds kit from Deus Ex: Human Revolution, but fire Armor Piercing bullets instead. "Diamond Back .357, MA-HEX20" is written above the barrel and "MA-HEX20, High Ex/Incendiary, Tracer" is written below the barrel.

Bugs[]

  • Otar's revolver occasionally sticks to Adam's hand. Multiple solutions are available, with a greater or less degree of success, such as going into the shooting range, repeatedly taking metro rides, triggering the icarus landing animation, and doing a lethal takedown.
