The "Shredder" is the signature version of the Vector .45 ACP. It is unlocked when the player reaches Karma level 6 and costs ₭375,000. It is a stealth-optimized build, focused towards delivering a high rate of fire (ROF) onto an opponent, with low-damage rounds for a knockback effect before the kill. Effective at close range, the Shredder begins to lose combat effectiveness at extended distance, even though it sports an optical sight: the highest non-magnified sight available.

Primary Role

The primary role of the Shredder is as a stealth weapon for covert assassinations & takedowns. Incorporated into the game is the real-world attribute of the Vector .45 ACP, the recoil mitigation caused from the dropping bolt. This allows the Shredder to put several rounds effectively on target at a medium range before the target has sufficient time to take cover.

Secondary Role

The Shredder can be utilized as an open-combat weapon, although using it as such is ill-advised: while being able to place shots on target with a high frequency, it does remarkably low damage.
