Weapons

33 weapons across 9 classes. Damage and fire rate are now recorded for 28 of them, and they reveal a rule that changes how loadouts work.

Community-recorded data

WARDOGS is in Early Access. The damage and fire-rate figures on this page were recorded by the community in the closed alpha and still match the Season 1 figures, but BULKHEAD can change them in any update. Some stats are still unrecorded and show as unknown.

Dismissed for the rest of this browser session. A hard reset (or a new browser) will show this again.

Damage belongs to the calibre, not the weapon. Base damage is per calibre, not per weapon, and the rule holds across all 11 calibres with recorded damage, including 5.56x45 across 8 weapons, 7.62x54 across 4 and 9x19 across 5. What differs between weapons of one calibre is the hit-zone multiplier, which is set by weapon class. So switching weapon within a calibre changes fire rate and handling, never damage per shot.
The DPS raceEach lane is a weapon racing against the clock. Markers move at the weapon's sustained damage rate; the leader's pace sets the axis. FAL wins on raw DPS, but the spread is tighter than the trade-off chart suggests.

Insufficient data: MP43 · M500 · PKM · GGX 17 · RPG7 · MAWS · MGL40 are missing either damage or RPM in the source data.

Damage against fire rate

The trade-offUp is harder-hitting, right is faster. Only the corners are labelled; hover any point for its name, calibre and DPS. The flat rows are the calibre rule made visible: eight 5.56 weapons all sit at 28 damage, separated only by fire rate.

Damage per second

Sustained DPSDamage × fire rate ÷ 60. DPS needs no knowledge of player health, which is why it is available when TTK is not. Ignores reloads, falloff and accuracy.
