A scoped semi-auto action repeats long-range hits quickly. High price and slower movement keep it anchored near cover.

Reading the numbers

Why does damage change with distance?

The game applies a range modifier for every 500 game units. The slider models that modifier; it is not a guarantee for every encounter.

Is this a bullet spray pattern?

Sammenlign grænsen for første skuds spredning ud fra spillets parametre. Stilling ændrer unøjagtigheden, afstand ændrer diameteren. Koordinater fra optagede OP.GG-serier: kamerarekyl uden musekorrektion. Tilfældig kuglespredning er ikke medregnet.
