All Weapon Rating ListStrongest Weapon Rating Criteria
- Prioritizing Guns With High DPS
- How Easy To Hit Enemy With Bullets
- Based On Contribution To Victory
- Ammo Capacity Is Also Considered
Prioritizing Guns With High DPS
As an offensive tool, how quickly you can defeat the enemy is key. The ranking takes into account both the damage and fire rate of the weapon.
How Easy To Hit Enemy With Bullets
Guns with fast bullet velocity or easy recoil control are rated higher because they make it easier to land hits. Even if a gun has high power, weapons with difficult recoil control or no auto-fire tend to be rated lower.
Based On Contribution To Victory
Close to medium-range weapons that are good for securing confirmed kills are rated highly in Operations. Since both modes allow revives, long-range weapons tend to have lower ratings.
Ammo Capacity Is Also Considered
In Operations, the penetration level of ammo also becomes important. Guns that can load high-penetration ammo while having excellent performance are rated higher.
