The peacekeeper is one of the few weapons in the game which has a very accurate hip fire and aiming down sights doesn’t affect the spread of the weapon. The precision choke hop-up although charges the weapon and chokes the spread of the weapon when aiming down sights.

Using the weapon is fairly easy. The main problem with this weapon is that you need to get close to your enemy to be able to use the weapon to its full potential. Although, using the precision choke, the peacekeeper can also be used as a mid-range weapon.

To be able to extract most using the weapon, you need to learn Bunny hopping as it will enable you to keep your momentum while aiming down sights. If you aren’t using the hop-up, you should always hip-fire the weapon as it allows you to keep your momentum and your speed while dealing the same damage and with same accuracy.

The peacekeeper in the past has been in talks as the weapon damage is highly variable. This even caught the eyes of many popular streamers who also were surprised with the damage being so irratic.

Dr Disrespect is one such streamer who has raged at the devs to fix the damage on the weapon at multiple occasions on his stream. He recently also lost his temper after Season 3 started. You can watch the clip here.
