Shotguns – PUBG weapons & weapon stats

DBS Shotgun

Pioneering the discharge of Update 4.Three and its concentrate on rising the effectiveness of Shotguns was the DBS – a strong Care Package-exclusive shotgun that offers mega-damage per pellet with an extended efficient vary than another weapon in its class. Its excessive journal dimension and first rate fee of fireside is balanced out by an prolonged reload time that leaves you significantly weak. This isn’t a shotgun it is best to take into consideration trying to reload throughout a close-quarters battle – but it surely’s an awesome choice for ending that battle shortly and cleanly utilizing the gun’s extraordinarily excessive DPS.

S12Ok

Here’s a shotgun that spends all its time wishing it might be a special form of gun. The (comparatively) massive journal and excessive firing fee equipped by the S12Ok’s semi-auto nature make it a extra forgiving shotgun than most, and likewise extra suited to taking out teams when in comparison with the opposite shotguns; although its vary is low even by shotgun requirements.

S686

The double-barrelled S686 takes all of the traits of the shotgun as a category of weapon, and exaggerates them. Though it may possibly solely fireplace two shells earlier than it must be reloaded, you possibly can unleash each photographs in a miniscule period of time, and in the event you land your photographs at shut vary, your enemy is paste. But miss your photographs with this shaky, inaccurate gun, or get caught at medium or lengthy vary, and your S686 would possibly as nicely be a Snickers bar.

S1897

The eagle-eyed amongst you may need observed that the harm stats of the pump motion S1897 are similar to these of the S686. So which do you are taking? Well, the S1897 provides you 5 photographs earlier than reloading, which makes it much more forgiving than the blast-and-pray S686; however its draw back is a hideous six-second reload time, a a lot decrease fireplace fee, and the worst vary of any gun in PUBG (including Bullet Loops will convey this reload time down to only over Four seconds, which isn’t a lot better, however would possibly prevent in case your enemy lacks a killing intuition). These causes put the S1897 on the backside of my private listing of shotguns, with the understanding that the others aren’t that a lot better.

Sawed-off

In my humble opinion, the Sawed-off is the one shotgun it is best to take to the end-game with out feeling ashamed of your self. The motive for this isn’t that it’s significantly efficient within the end-game, however that it occupies a pistol slot, slightly than a main weapon slot. Treat the Sawed-Off like a miniature S686 that does much less harm however really boasts a surprisingly first rate efficient vary.

Assault Rifles – PUBG weapons & weapon stats

G36C

Native to Vikendi (see our PUBG Vikendi information for additional particulars), the G36C replaces the SCAR-L there, and possesses just about all the identical stats, apart from a nifty fireplace fee improve that places it on the identical stage as our pal the M416. However, to counteract this, a complete second has been added to its reload time, so that you’ll principally want to finish the battle earlier than it’s essential reload. And that may be harder than you suppose, as a result of the G36C shouldn’t be as tameable because the SCAR-L or the M416, with a recoil that many gamers agree is troublesome to become familiar with.

AKM

The AKM has at all times been a fearsome weapon at each stage of a match, boasting the joint-highest harm per hit of all of the assault rifles. Discounting harm drop-off, 2 headshots or 5 physique photographs will kill somebody clad in Level Three armour. However, it’s a tough AR to grasp, as a result of its heavy recoil and bullet drop. Best recommendation is to spend time in PUBG’s coaching mode getting used to the AKM earlier than laying declare to it every match.

Aug A3

This air drop-exclusive assault rifle is an actual magnificence. The Aug packs a punch and handles very simply in comparison with a weapon such because the AKM. Its solely disadvantage is that it takes a very long time to reload in comparison with a few of its contemporaries. All in all, a strong and forgiving rifle which feels nice to make use of – significantly when outfitted with a suppressor.

Beryl M762

The Beryl is well forgotten in comparison with extra staple assault rifles, such because the AKM, M416, or SCAR-L. But the Beryl’s DPS beats out all of them, thanks primarily to its wonderful mixture of base harm and fee of fireside. The catch? A horrible quantity of recoil, which suggests in actuality you’re extra more likely to die to any of the beforehand talked about ARs than you’re to the Beryl. If you’re intent on utilizing this beast, a minimum of connect a foregrip and compensator to permit a minimum of a few of your bullets to hit at mid- to long-range.

Groza

Ahh, the Groza. If you simply heard a terrifying droning sound within the distance and also you’re unsure what it was, it was most likely a Groza. This air drop-exclusive shredder hits with the facility of an AKM, however its fee of fireside is high of the road, even beating out half the SMGs listed above. It takes some getting used to, and it’s greatest not used as a long-range weapon, however in the event you’re fortunate sufficient to come back throughout a Groza, there aren’t many causes I can consider to not take it.

M416

Arguably the quintessential assault rifle, The M416 has first rate total stats which might be boosted to excellence with a full array of attachments, although in fact don’t count on that to occur in each game. When in comparison with the AKM, the M416 offers much less harm however fires quicker and handles higher. But neglect that. The actual motive to like the M416 is that it has the bottom reload time of any assault rifle in PUBG. We all know that reloading throughout a firefight is tantamount to urgent the “kill me now” key in your keyboard, whether or not you’re behind cowl or not. So I discover it’s greatest to restrict this as a lot as potential.

M16A4

In phrases of stats the M16A4 is near-identical to the M416, with the principle distinction that the M16A4 is a burst- or single-shot-only weapon. But right here’s the factor: by no means use the burst mode. You can spam-click in single-shot mode and attain the identical fee of fireside because the burst mode, with out having to attend for the cooldown after each third shot. So principally it’s an M416 with fewer attachments slots, and you need to give your self an RSI with a view to use it correctly. I’m not a fan, however there’s no denying in expert palms the M16A4 is a strong close- to mid-range rifle. Update #27 has additionally been very type to the M16A4, supplying it with decreased preliminary recoil, an extended efficient vary, and the power to connect each Canted Sights and a Tactical Stock to the gun to additional increase its already formidable capabilities.

MK47 Mutant

The Mutant is an attention-grabbing addition to PUBG’s AR roster, matching the AKM in harm output however firing solely in two-shot bursts. This instantly turns many gamers off the Mutant, however the two-shot burst makes it a lot simpler to regulate than the M16A4, and ultimate for tapping enemies at mid- to long-range. Attach a vertical foregrip and compensator to this factor and it’ll shine such as you by no means would have anticipated. This is a burst AR for individuals who, like me, don’t like burst ARs. What’s extra, as with the M16A4, Update #27 added the power to connect a Tactical Stock to the Mutant, rising its recoil restoration pace together with all the opposite speedy advantages such a Stock brings.

QBZ95

The QBZ95 is unique to Sanhok, and replaces the SCAR-L there. I received’t spend a lot time speaking about this weapon, as a result of it’s virtually completely similar to the SCAR-L, the one substantial variations being that the QBZ95 has a really barely larger fee of fireside and a considerably longer reload time.

SCAR-L

The poor man’s M416 remains to be a reasonably first rate assault rifle. The SCAR-L is commonly maligned for being simply barely worse than the M416 in just about each single method (minus the bottom harm, which is similar), however this apart, it’s a strong, controllable gun which might simply turn out to be a game-ender as soon as upgraded with attachments akin to a 4x scope, compensator, foregrip, and possibly an prolonged quickdraw magazine. Don’t fear, SCAR-L; we nonetheless love you.

SMGs – PUBG weapons & weapon stats

MP5K

The MP5K is the most recent addition to PUBG’s weapons roster. Replacing the Vector on Vikendi, and coinciding with the modifications to the Vector with Update #27, the MP5K trades some total DPS for the next damage-per-shot, an Assault Rifle-sized journal, very low recoil, and the power to reinforce it with as much as six attachments without delay. Even with out attachments this SMG has fairly first rate dealing with, however with a compensator and inventory it turns into straightforward to shred enemies at medium or shut vary. This is a really strong pickup at any stage of the game due to its ease of use and excessive improve potential, and appears set to deal with the Bizon and UMP for hottest SMG in Vikendi.

Bizon

Added completely to Vikendi and Erangel maps in Update #25, the Bizon has a number of good promoting factors. Its very massive journal, full-auto mode and low recoil mix to make it an awesome mid- to close-range SMG, and it’s naturally quieter than many different SMGs. It lacks the flat DPS of sure different SMGs as a result of its decrease fee of fireside, and it may possibly solely settle for muzzle and sight attachments. But I by no means discover myself lacking the decrease rail or journal attachments as a result of the gun already has such low recoil and such an awesome journal. It’s nonetheless a contender for greatest SMG in PUBG, however it would solely shine in the event you use it in the appropriate method; with agile actions and fast, highly effective bursts over brief distances.

Vector

The Vector lastly acquired a buff to its journal dimension with Update #27, rising it a bit of from the measly 13/25 it used to have. Now firing 9mm rounds as an alternative of 0.45, it has the second-lowest base harm of any SMG however the highest fee of fireside and really low recoil, making it a tough weapon with a excessive ability ceiling that may unleash some wonderful DPS at brief to mid-range in the appropriate palms. Just ensure you’re not caught off-guard when your journal runs out a couple of second after you begin firing.

Micro Uzi

The Uzi boasts the very best fee of fireside of any weapon in PUBG, however as a result of its poor harm this isn’t fairly as thrilling because it sounds. Regardless, the Uzi is a good choice within the early- and mid-game, significantly – nicely, completely – in close-quarters fight. Plus, , it really holds sufficient ammo to kill somebody with. Hear that, Vector?

UMP45

For too lengthy has the UMP been the undisputed king of PUBG SMGs. Now rebranded because the UMP45 as an alternative of the UMP9 due to its ammo sort change, Update #27 nerfed the general journal capability of the UMP from 30/40 to 25/35. A slight change, however one which will probably be felt throughout closer-ranged encounters. All its different promoting factors are nonetheless current, nevertheless: a mild and eminently controllable recoil, a shocking accuracy and efficient vary, and a great variety of potential attachments with which to improve the gun. It’s nonetheless a wonderful gun, however due to the rise of the Bizon and now the MP5K, it might have gamers re-evaluating their very own private SMG rankings.

Tommy Gun

Damage is the declare to fame of the Tommy Gun, with surprisingly good flat harm stats and a good clip dimension that may be prolonged past another SMG. However, the shortage of a sight attachment severely limits its efficient vary, and its recoil is a bucking bronco in comparison with the UMP or MP5K, stopping the Tommy Gun from being a really perfect alternative heading into the mid- and late-game.

LMGs – PUBG weapons & weapon stats

DP-28

If the AKM had been an LMG, it will be the DP-28 (aren’t abbreviations the very best?). Slow to fireside, however hits like a truck. Hard to regulate, however takes without end to reload. Oh wait, these had been two negatives. Yeah, I’m not an enormous fan of the DP-28. But you possibly can definitely nonetheless shred with it at mid- to close-range. Bear in thoughts, nevertheless, that the DP-28 takes no attachments besides a choose few scopes. So what you see is what you get with the pizza-gun.

M249

Joining the Groza within the ranks of air drop-only shredders, the M249 earns its popularity in two methods: an insane fee of fireside, and a bonkers clip dimension. Nobody’s going to dare get right into a DPS battle with you while you’re holding the M249. However, in the event you click on reload earlier than you actually needed to, you’re lifeless, due to the gun’s downright diabolical eight-second reload time. But with 100 photographs, who wants reloads? Just ensure you have a great backup weapon to go with the M249, and also you’re good to go.

DMRs – PUBG weapons & weapon stats

VSS Vintorez

My buddies and I used to name the VSS the “paintball gun” as a result of its dismayingly low harm stats for a DMR, and its very low bullet pace (precisely a 3rd of the Mini-14’s bullet pace). Its plus sides embrace a wonderful built-in suppressor and a good scope, in addition to its means to go full-auto for some pretty first rate mid- to long-range DPS. But it is best to most likely nonetheless abandon the VSS the second you discover just about another DMR or sniper rifle.

Mini-14

Minimal bullet drop, a great clip dimension, and pretty easy to grasp. The Mini-14’s low harm (hovering between the VSS and the SKS) means individuals usually favor to make use of different DMRs given the selection, but it surely’s nonetheless a strong, dependable alternative at any stage of a match.

SKS

The SKS is the Mini-14’s brusque, no-nonsense older sibling. Lower clip dimension and better recoil, however a big step up in harm and a decrease reload time. The SKS was my go-to DMR, till they got here out with…

SLR

The SLR is the SKS’s belligerent uncle. Higher recoil and an extended reload time once more, however the highest harm of any non-air drop DMR. If you possibly can management it and use it nicely underneath stress, the DLR can finish numerous fights earlier than they start.

MK14 EB

This air drop-only DMR is definitely similar to the SLR – a lot so, in truth, that I do generally surprise why one is confined to airdrops and the opposite shouldn’t be. I suppose you possibly can say the MK14 is the SKS’s equally belligerent aunt. Massive harm for a DMR, excessive recoil, excessive reload time, and the distinctive means to go full-auto when wanted and ship a cluster-truck of injury at close-range with all of the eloquence of a rhinoceros on stilts.

QBU

The QBU replaces the Mini-14 on Sanhok, and might’t be discovered on another map. A decrease clip dimension than the Mini-14, however a smidge extra harm and a barely decrease reload time. The major advantage of the QBU, nevertheless, is its bipod mode, which all however eliminates recoil whilst you’re inclined.

Snipers – PUBG weapons & weapon stats

AWM

The solely rifle that may one-shot kill by a Level Three helmet, the AWM is an air drop-exclusive that excels at uber-range. All its different stats are constructed to counterbalance the AWM’s monumental harm; excessive reload time, low fireplace fee, distinctive ammunition solely present in air drops… But significantly, who’s not gonna decide up an AWM once they get the possibility, even after Update 28 nerfed its base harm some?

M24

The M24 was an air drop-only merchandise till they made it world-spawnable again in May 2018, making it one of many strongest non-air drop weapons within the game. With the discharge of Season 4, the bottom harm of the Kar98Ok and the M24 swapped, so now the M24 is much less highly effective – albeit with a quicker fee of fireside and the power so as to add an Extended Mag.

Kar98Ok

The Kar98ok, whereas outclassed in each method by the AWM, ought to nonetheless command a substantial amount of respect and concern. A low fee of fireside, excessive reload time, and small and un-upgradeable journal dimension are all balanced out by excessive harm and the truth that everybody’s had a lot expertise with the Kar98ok by now, so that you simply know they’re gonna land these headshots.

Winchester Model 1894

I’m virtually optimistic the Winchester is a Crossbow in disguise, attempting to earn a bit extra respect. Lack of attachment choices, the bottom harm of any sniper rifle, and the identical reload time as a Kar98ok. The Winchester is simply helpful early- to mid-game, and ought to be deserted as quickly as you discover one other sniper rifle or DMR.

Miscellaneous weapons – PUBG weapons & weapon stats

Crossbow

Death by crossbow is accountable for an awesome many rage-quits, I’m positive, however that alone received’t reserve it from being a ludicrously impractical weapon used solely when nothing else is accessible. Huge “bullet” drop and a disgusting period of time between photographs shouldn’t be ameliorated sufficient by its first rate harm and pure stealth.

Pistols – PUBG weapons & weapon stats

Deagle

The Deagle is strictly correctly: an actual powerhouse of a pistol, and the closest a pistol has ever come to being as helpful and viable as an Assault Rifle or SMG. Capable of one-shotting a participant with no helmet and two-shotting a participant with Level 2 vest and helmet (one shot within the head, one within the physique), you possibly can die earlier than what’s occurring towards this weapon. It’s nonetheless not highly effective sufficient so that you can ever decide it over an UMP or an AKM, but it surely’s a fearsome early-game alternative.

Skorpion

Finally a rival of the P18C for greatest full-auto pistol, the Skorpion sadly doesn’t come out on high. Its main promoting level is a big clip dimension, and a lot of attachment slots to assist management its recoil, however every thing else – harm, fireplace fee, reload pace – is a bit of worse than the P18C, making it a barely unsatisfying weapon to make use of in my expertise.

P18C

Pistols are virtually universally ineffective when you get previous the early-game, however the P18C really does a reasonably first rate job of masquerading as an SMG, with a full-auto mode that makes up for its low harm and truly boasts the very best DPS of any pistol.

P1911

The P1911 packs a hefty punch for a pistol, however with solely seven photographs you’ll have to verify all of them depend, significantly when up towards an armoured assailant. Nevertheless, that is greater than able to seeing you thru just a few early-game encounters, and should even often see you thru some intense late-game close-quarters fights the place you in some way each miss all of your photographs together with your main weapons.

P92

A really uninteresting however nonetheless first rate pistol, the P92 options common harm, common reload pace, common every thing, actually. A very good backup for while you run out of bullets for every thing else, which is absolutely what pistols are for.

R1895

The R1895 packs extra of a punch than another secondary slot weapon (minus the Sawed-Off, in fact), however a gradual fireplace fee and a slowwwwww reload pace make it laborious to justify retaining over any of the opposite pistols.

R45

Miramar has it fortunate, as a result of the R45 replaces the R1895 there, and improves upon it in some ways. Same harm, however half the reload time, twice the hearth fee, and simpler to regulate typically.

Melee weapons – PUBG weapons & weapon stats

Melee weapons aren’t value speaking about at size, as a result of they’re all near-identical in perform and harm. The one exception is the pan, which for some weird motive offers extra harm than another melee weapon; and what’s extra, whereas “holstered” it displays the distinctive means to deflect all photographs which collide with it, doing a masterful job of defending your bottom whilst you battle. So the pan is the clear winner, adopted by each different melee weapon, and at last your fists taking on the rear. Yes, I heard it. No, I’m not altering it.

PUBG Attachments

Before we go, right here’s a fast rundown on which attachments you possibly can equip to which weapon. Of course, as with the remainder of this information, that is all topic to alter, and since there’s numerous them, I like to recommend trying to find the attachment sort of alternative (Muzzle, Magazines, Stocks, and many others.) utilizing the search bar simply above the desk to view all of the attachments of that sort. Or you possibly can hit the earlier/subsequent buttons just under the desk to cycle by all of the attachments on supply.
