Notes

  • Enemy armor absorbs damage on any part you hit and does NOT have Headshot damage multiplier. AP damage are calculated separately based on AP value and applies headshot damage multiplier if it was a headshot. For reference, a weapon dealing 50 damage with 0.5 AP will deal 50 Damage on armor and 25 damage on health.
  • Armor absorbs last hit before breaking. Overflowing armor damage does not transfer to health/AP damage.
  • Most weapons with 0 AP value does NOT increase Armor Penetration(+0.1 AP) from Cutting Shot skill. Only exceptions are (SP Model 11) and (Mosconi 12 Classic). Enemies have armor threshold value that subtracts from AP value on weapons.
  • Cutting Shot skill increases AP by 0.1.
  • The AP stats shown are already subtracted by 0.5, which is what Heavy SWAT uses. Shielder ignores an additional 0.5 AP from damage source, dozers can negate all but one weapon’s AP value to 0.
  • SWAT base at 150HP, Light units 70AP and heavy units 170AP.
