1874e Petros Rifle
1874e Petros Rifle is worth keeping when you want careful 11x54 mm shots or a base rifle for the later Petros upgrade path; panic fights punish it fast.
Blitz 10R Pistol feels like the middle-ground Blitz: enough magazine to be usable, not enough to pretend it solves every close fight.
Blitz 10R Pistol sits in the sweet spot if you like the Blitz family at all. It keeps the fast 8x21mm sidearm feel, gives more breathing room than the five-round versions, and does not ask for the same commitment as the 15R. The weak point is still the same: it sprays better than it places shots, so it feels much better as a close backup than as something you rely on for clean aim.
Blitz pistols are found across Sophie, so the 10R usually enters the run as a weapon find rather than a route target. Once it shows up, the real question is whether you want this middle magazine size more than the cramped five-round versions.
1874e Petros Rifle is worth keeping when you want careful 11x54 mm shots or a base rifle for the later Petros upgrade path; panic fights punish it fast.
1874s Petros Sniper Rifle is worth the slot when the run really gives you range and enough 11x54 mm ammo to cash in on it; cramped fights expose the risk fast.

AV1 Rocket Launcher feels worth packing when you already have Rockets and expect targets that are worth burning them on.
Black Box only starts to matter once you have already won the reactor fight and still have enough left to get home.

Blitz Pistol feels like the basic version you use because it is there, not because it is the cleanest sidearm on the map.
The 10-round magazine is the whole appeal. It smooths out the ugly reload rhythm of the smaller Blitz pistols without asking you to chase the top variant.
Once the fight stops being close and messy, the loose accuracy starts to show and the gun feels much less convincing.
