Octavia's pistol hammers foes with single shots or a rapid volley of bullets.
The Pandero is a semi-auto pistol that is Octavia's signature sidearm, featuring an Alternate Fire mode that unleashes all remaining rounds in the magazine as a single full-auto burst.
The alt-fire of the Pandero will eject all of the remaining ammunition in the magazine in a single, uninterruptible burst, while forcing the user out of zooming and also preventing zooming in during this mode.
Because of this fact, increasing the magazine size of the weapon and using Steady Hands can help to make its damage output more consistent and reliable.
If buffed with unlimited secondary ammo on a Void Fissure mission, the weapon will only fire its magazine amount at a time, with small delays between each trigger pull.
Trivia
Pandero is the Spanish word for Tambourine, a hand-held percussion instrument.
The Pandero's last four shots sound slightly different to indicate low ammunition.
