Learn effective tactics to boost damage and health for swift enemy elimination.
Hey, I see you're looking to boost damage and health. Let me help you figure out what gear or adjustments to focus on. Also, for your gun, you might want to check its recoil control and stability settings—any movement during shots could affect accuracy. If you're using green gear, those icons usually indicate different roles or stats, so pay attention to their descriptions. Since you're a main shooter in the middle of battle, prioritize weapons with high damage output and good range.
Selected a more reliable weapon, I haven’t played since the 1.6 update was released. Back then you probably wanted an assault rifle—I’m not sure which one exactly. There was also a feature that asked you to equip four from one type and two from another. I shared my inventory photos a few months ago: these were two of the top picks you should consider. They offered great value with their bonus rewards. You should look for weapons that are deadly, brutal, fierce, precise, and straightforward.
Focus on managing the premium operations for them. Simplify tasks on your map, collect information, leverage intel to access high-profile targets and eliminate them in teams. There are always individuals seeking HVT groups. Utilize this to unlock advanced zones and proceed into tougher dungeon challenges.
In the update at 1.6 they made several adjustments, lowering stamina’s impact significantly. Previously it contributed about 30 hp per point and reduced incoming damage, but now it offers minimal benefit. It once provided 30 points of protection and reduced damage taken, whereas now it gives less protection and less damage mitigation. When compared to firearms and tech which still deliver 30 damage and 30 skill points per point, stamina seems largely unused. After removing armor as a bonus trait, they switched to health, but its range is broader than other stats—making it a strong option if you can afford gear that includes a holster. You’ll notice the drop in stamina makes it less useful. With armor removed, they replaced it with health, though this gives higher values than the others, which is why it’s worth considering (except for your holster, which still lags behind). If you’re aiming for maximum damage potential, firearms remain strong; Alphabridge is a solid alternative after the stamina cut; Nomad helps sustain you. For tech builds, Tacticians is ideal, Alphabridge is decent now, and Nomad is useful for survival. The rest of the sets aren’t as valuable—they work but don’t match the power of the five mentioned. For weapons, choose an M4/LVOA-C/G36 for firearms, MP7/PP-19/Vector/AUG for SMGs, RPK-74/M60/M249 for LMGs, bolt-action rifles for marksmen, and shotguns like M870 or SASG-12 for close-range. If you prefer high-damage options, consider the 1-shot per round rifles; others favor semi-autos. Shotguns such as the M870 are worth it when paired with strikers. Skill-based weapons include Famas and MDR, plus Pahkan and Historian for good value. Upgrades can be found through daily/weekly HVTs, the Underground, crafting, or random drops.
