Fist

Overview

Fists are Claude's default weapon in GTA III, always available even when he has nothing else. Every fight starts here before he can afford guns.

Performance

Punches deal very little damage and knock pedestrians down only after several hits. They are useless against armed enemies and vehicles, but they never run out of ammunition and do not attract much police attention.

How to get

Fists are always equipped when no other weapon is selected. Being busted or wasted removes Claude's weapons and leaves him with only his fists.

Tips

• Use punches to pull drivers out of cars or to settle small street scuffles quietly.
• Pick up a baseball bat as soon as possible; it is a big upgrade for melee fights.
• Avoid fist fights with gang members carrying guns.
