How to Get Sir Livingstone’s Pistol

Sir Livingstone’s Pistol is one of the best early-game weapons players can get their hands on in Starfield. Not only is the weapon very potent, but it also comes from an iconic character in the game’s lore. Wielding the weapon is an honor in itself, and fortunately, it is not hard to acquire.

There are plenty of Starfield weapons that are highly capable in the damage department. However, very few match the charm and prowess of Sir Livingstone’s Pistol, especially given how early you can obtain it in the game.

How to Get Sir Livingstone’s Pistol in Starfield?

Although Malcolm Livingstone was the chairman of Constellation 50 years ago, prior to the game’s timeline, he is not just a figure of the past. This is because his appointment as the chairperson of the organization was shrouded in controversy, with many alleging that he bought his way to the top.

Whatever the case may be, you can get his pistol for free in Bethesda’s Starfield, and it’s not just a relic of the past but an actually powerful weapon. Before you try to get the gun, it’s worth noting that it’s only possible if you have the Kid Stuff trait in the game.

If you have the trait, join Constellation and complete the quest that requires you to find the Artifact. Once done, visit your parents in the Residential District.

During a game of poker with the Dean of Engineering, your father will talk about your achievement. This will prompt the dean to hand you the pistol as a gift, as he has no use for it. Eventually, the dean and your father will restore the weapon, and since your father is so proud of your achievement, the next time you visit the lodge, he will give you the gun.

How Good Is Sir Livingstone’s Pistol in Starfield?

As mentioned before, Sir Livingstone’s Pistol is not just a showpiece. It deals physical damage of 28 with each bullet and has a fire rate of 67. The gun has a clip size of 15, so you have enough bullets for combat before you need to reload.

Since the weapon was previously owned by Malcolm Livingstone, it comes with two equipped mods: “Large Magazine” and “High Velocity,” making it worthy of picking up. However, it doesn’t have weapon effects despite being categorized as a unique weapon.

The gun can be equipped with four mods, and you can even change the two pre-installed ones. Regardless, Sir Livingstone’s Pistol is one of the best Starfield weapons in the early game. You can also sell the weapon for a decent price of 7,612 credits, but once you do, you won’t be able to get it back.
