This poses a significant handicap for lower-level players who cannot loot ammo in sufficiently large quantities, as opposed to Pistols whose ammunition is available in an abundant quality, and Melee Weapons which require no further upkeep at all. Low tier Rifles are extremely powerful compared to all other types of weapons, with the caveat being the expensive ammunition they use. This provides better crowd control, which is handy when facing groups of weaker zombies. Carbines are characterized by their High Accuracy and lower damage per shot, but higher 1.5 rounds per second fire rate.This allows Bolt Action Rifles to achieve important 1-crit kill or 2-crit kill damage points against certain zombie types earlier than Carbines. Bolt Action Rifles are characterized by their Very High Accuracy' and high damage per shot, and only 1 round per second fire rate.

There are two kinds of Rifles: Carbines and Bolt Action: Most high-level Rifles (with the exception of the Dusk, X-Dusk Carbine, Crossbow, and the X-Garand) instead have Very High Critical Chance, only requiring 79 Critical Hit points to reach the same maximum point. Their reasonably high capacities and powerful rounds allow them to be effective even in the hands of characters with lower values in accuracy and reloading.Īll Rifles up to the VSS Vintorez have High Critical Chance, requiring 112 Critical Hit points to reach the maximum critical chance of 80%. Naturally accurate, with a good base chance for critical hits and a respectable damage output shot-for-shot compared to many other weapons, Rifles serve well as primary weapons and are effective in most builds due to their inherent strengths.
