List of All Particle Beam Weapons
Starfield's pistols are light, diverse, and decent weapons all-around, but they generally do less damage than most weapons. As a result, pistols are best used as a secondary weapon.
The Best Pistols in Starfield
There are three default pistol types in Starfield: laser, ballistic, and particle beam. Laser pistols deal energy damage, ballistic pistols deal physical damage, and particle beam pistols can deal both.
Despite the default typing, most pistols can be modified to fit your playstyle better!
A Guide to All Weapons
Pistols use a variety of ammo types by default. You can even change your pistol ammo with magazine and battery mods on the workbench.
You'll collect a surplus of ammo throughout your playthrough, but we've prepared a list of default Pistol ammo IDs for console commands here too!
Ammo | ID |
---|---|
002B559C | |
002B559A | |
002B5599 | |
002B5598 | |
002BAE3F | |
002B5590 | |

A weapon's overall damage does not scale and does not increase when you level up. Instead, weapon damage depends on its tier and rarity, weapon mods, and your skills.
This means that in order to obtain more powerful weapons, you need to defeat stronger enemies and loot from chests in higher-level zones. Then, you can increase their effectiveness by installing mods at a weapon workbench and leveling up your skills that correspond to the damage type of your weapon.
