Well turning them into one hit kill guns … you know why RD44 is the best MG in the game? because its lower damage doesn’t matter when the other full power rifle round MGs also only kill with two shots.
The most significant difference between ARs and SFR right now is that one kills with one shot - the other doesn’t. The second difference is that one is harder to controll and the other has bigger magazines. If you give both one hit kill power ARs are obviously gonna be the better weapons
Brother is playing since closed beta and haven’t heard about damage dropoff
13.6 damage on an AR means it stops 1 shotting at whopping range of 14 meters (as stated above). 14.1 DMG stops 1 shotting at 35m. You can fine tune it to 13.9 for 27m to fit within its power level dictated by their RoF
It takes 2 mathematical calculations to figure it out bruh
and it takes zero mathematical calculations to figure out that 90% of the firefights are under 20 meter distance, unless you play pacific or Tunisia or something…
on this we agree of course
I did the calculations:
For damage drop off to hit 2 shot threshold at 20-30m distance it should have 13.8-13.9 damage (so Fedeorov is a great baseline, given it has 600 RpM, but 5 less bullets and 0.25 dispersion. StG and AS-44 could have 13.9 damage, lower RoF and 0.3-0.35 dispersion)
Hyde because of its great RoF should fit withing 10-20m threshold with 13.6-13.7 damage (as well as standarized dispersion of 0.3-0.35)
FOR COMPARISON:
Most SF stop 1 shotting at >65m range. Type Hei Automatic stops 1 shotting at 25-30m range, but the gun has great stats otherwise (but could have slight buff to its damage, 14.4 or 14.3 would cause it to stop 1 shots at <40m range)
Regarding the MGs thresholds:
I believe they shouldn’t 1 shot targets at >70m range. This puts them 14 to 14.3 DMG
RD-44 rules by its own rules:
RD-44 to 1 shot at distances of 20-30m should have 13.7-13.9 damage. For distances of 30-40m should have 14-14.2 damage. Id say that 14.3 would be overkill with 50m 1 shot range
Correction on Fedorov Avtomat and Type Hei Automatic:
Fedorov could be buffed up to 14.1 damage without breaking the 30m threshold, but even with 13.9 damage it fits withing 20-30m bracket
Type Hei Automatic could see having its damage drop off buffed to match other SF rifles (but is not neccesary) and get its damage buffed to 14.4 to have 35-40m 1 shot bracket as per both this and SF table
