    Zat or Stunner, which is the better weapon?

    I've been wondering which is better the zat or the stunner. Both are fine weapons but pitted against each other which has the upper hand. What do you think.

    It depends if you want to kill or not

    If you do then the Zat if not the Stunner because you can keep firing it and won't kill the person so both have advantges

      Gotta go with the Zatnikitel. It is much faster than stunner and has much larger effect on enemies.

        When I think of weapon, I think of how lethal something is, so I would have to go with a zat. But I agree with fugiman, too. If you AREN'T looking to kill, it's the stunner. Depends on what your ultimate goal is.

          Stunner, if you want to kill someone there are a lot of weapons you can choose from but you would use a Zat to stun or if there is no other option it would be your inefficient killing tool. Stunner you can just shoot them multiple times without having to worry.

                Not really, in order to open a zat u must push a button at the side of the gun, for the stunner you just fire.

                  I didn't mean activation time, I meant beam travel speed. Just like bullets are faster than staffs, railguns appear faster than some energy weapons etc.

                      One shot from a zat is guaranteed to knock someone out, but some people can take more than one shot from a stunner before going out. Zat wins.

                        if you want to subdue not kill a Zat would work maybe 90% of the time, stunners maybe 80% but in tht small 10% if they dont go down you cant shoot them again while the stunner you can shoot time more than once.

                          Stunners look more handheld-friendly, being a standard "gun-shape" compared to the odd-looking Zat.

                          People do become accustomed to the Zat-blast after repeated blasts, but I suppose this is the same for the Stunner too.

                          The Zat can also affect electrical devices whilst the Stunner has only been seen to affect humans/ wraiths/ etc.

                          If you wanted to Stun a large crowd, firing blindly into the crowd with a Zat could result in a double-hit, causing death, whilst the Stunner would probably only result in a larger headache...

                          It really depends on your ultimate goal in using a stunning device. The Zat makes a pretty pointless lethal device, having to fire twice (the lethal-blast is probably only a fall-back option incase the stunned captive is no longer of use and is being unco-operative. Also, being stunned once will lower the captives chance of fleeing, if he's stunned again he'll be dead).

                          The Stunner is just a stunning device. Simple as that. Like a taser but at a longer range and energy-based.

                          They're really pretty equal. But I'd go with a stunner if I had the choice, seems quicker than the Snakehead-Strike movement of the Zat when it activates.

                            the first wraith stunner did affect the puddle jumper in 38 minutes.
