Overview
This thread is supposed to help new hunters to know more about weapons , how to use them , and be aware of their advanatages and disadvantages. I will try to keep it as short and easy to understand as i can.( im working on adding more content)
Rifles
All of the rifles are worth their price in my opinion except Sparks , it is overpriced
Winfield
- one of the most stable weapons , landing headshots is very achivable.
- Killing someone by bodyshots usually takes 4-5 shots , thats why i would advise to change it as soon as you get sparks or vetterli.
- reload – medium
Sparks LRR
- has the nicest scope in opinion , does plenty of damage.
- Usually 2 shots is enough to take down a player
- only 1 bullet in magazine and long reload.
Vetterli
- best gun to be using at medium ranks in my opinion.
- 2-3 shots is enough to kill a player
- reload – medium
Mosin
- best weapon in the game
- takes 1 shot to kill tier 1 player and 2 shots to kill tier 3 player
- reload – fast ( empty mag)
Auto Mosin
- very powerfull at medium – short ranges , quite hard to use at long range due to unstable sight.
- damage is the same as Mosin.
- reload – fast
Nitro express
- does the biggest damage out of all weapons in the game , would advise it to use at medium ranges without using the sight
- 9 out of 10 people i kill are 1 shoted ( thats the main purpose of the rifle)
- reload – medium
Pistols
most of the pistols are pretty useless in my opinion so if you have a chance to swap it for something else , you might think of it.
3 pistols thich are worth mentioning :
Silenced pistol
- always took it as my secondary on low ranks as it is basically a long ranged knife. very usefull on killing zombies , dogs and hives on the medium range.
- damage is extremelly low so dont even try using it on hunters ( only headshot may make a difference )
- reload – medium
Dolch
- an automatic pistol with a fast fire rate
- damage is pretty high , 4 shots is ususally enough to kill a hunter + very effective against the bosses
- reaload – fast
Uppercut
- a revolver with a very high damage which uses the same bullets as sparks and mosin
- damage is high , 3 shots are enough to kill a hunter ( there is damage drop off on the distance tho )
- reload – medium
Shotguns
personal experience and few advises
i will cover completely random aspects of the game which you mind find usefull.
When i first started playing the game , i literally died 20 times in a row although my aim is good and pc is not a potato. You need to get the sense of the game , and i will advise you to actually initiate fights with other hunters , try diffrent things and see how the game mechanics works.
Enjoy the list of my experience/advice or whatever u wanna call it
- some guns share the same type of ammo ,so have a thought on it
- sable or machete ususally one shots a hunter
- if you down one hunter , burning his body is a good idea
- if you hit the armoured zombie legs he becomes extremelly slow
- 5 shotgun shots in the back is enough to kill a meathead
- always go in a game with at least 2 vitality shots
- using vitality shot stops bleeding and fire
- knife is a must have
- if you dont have 150 hp , be scared of the mosin
