Thank you for doing all these videos, love watching them

Everytime I heard people asking "what's the best gun", my answer was always "the one you have more ammo for and feels good to you". I still stand by that statement, but your analysis and presentation of the data is just awesome.

In my opinion rarity should'nt be considered in the overall score of a weapon because it doesn't help players if they have to decide between weapons. Which I would say is the best use for this type of ranking

I haven't played this game in a while, but I still watch his videos because of the quality. Big love WOBO!

I think it would be interesting to see a list without scarcity taken into account, just for raw weapon data.

You forgot one key feature about the ij 70, the dream you have when you first pick one up, the dream to mag dump a geared player with 380

This was great info. I really enjoy grinding for different diverse loadouts so this will help me choose my kits 💯

Your sense of humour is so understated, subtle, and witty... and I love it. Keep up the great work.

Thanks for putting this together, very informative and well put together.

Watching these videos my view of the game went from survival game with unpredictable survivors to, knowing the ins and outs of majority of the game mechanics! Thank you so much WOBO! Without your content I would not know nearly as much as I do today!

Solid methodical content as always! One area I feel you should cover is the effect suppressors have on a weapon, but not purely from a max detection range pov (I believe they are all similar), rather from the actual audible experience. An M4 for instance has a much sharper report that the AUX's low 'pop' when suppressed, making the shooters location far more detectable. This is even more so for the Pioneer, which when suppressed is whisper quiet and a head shot beast to 300m, though without the suppressor it loses its advantage completely. I guess my point here is that there are some nuanced advantages that quantitative analysis misses, and that some weapons are superior in certain configurations.

Love the content as always WOBO

Yes keep up your scoring you put a lot of work into it more than most folks I've enjoyed the majority of your videos keep up the hard work and don't lose the fun.

Love the vid! It may not be the most versatile, but I still love my sawn-off shotty. Easy to get, compact, useful for clearing / defending corners against solo players. I do think its spawn rate stat is artificially low... 0 isn't accurate. Shotgun + hacksaw isn't too hard to find. I'd definitely give it up for a Vaiga instantly though.

About the only thing i would change is the m70 and 550 by swaping them around. Internal mag over a 10 round mag any day and the recoil of the 550 is just to much worse makes it hard to see shots land.

Bro I've been waiting for this vid so long now, Keep it up wobo

I love this info your vid are always so well put together we love you wobo!

These videos are brilliant. Love your work Wobo!

Great content as always!!

Damn really good video and i love the chart at the end for each weapon class 👌

Thanks for doing this! There are so many guns in DayZ now, and as a new player I struggle to grasp what I should be using or passing on

Love it, thanks for all your hard work and the resulting information

Im dayz noob, abt 20 hours, and struggling to choose what guns to keep, especially on community where spawns are more frequent. I ended up taking a screenshot from this vid & use it to help me decide if each find is an upgrade or not (along with how many bullets & condition of course) its been really helpful & until ive played several hundred hours & discover which guns I'm best with, this will be my guide. thanks for taking the time :)

WOBO! A great video idea that I would find super useful would be explaining to some extent how explosives and maybe guns do damage THROUGH base walls and how much is mitigated. I have yet to figure out a formula. Keep up the killer videos!

Love the content Wobo!

Great video, love all the hard work gone into it! Would it be possible to add another score for "attachment reliability" possibly in the secondary or tertiary score. Like say the Mosin's score is really high, but the need for the pu scope could put its score down a bit, or you could say you need a magazine for the Cr-550 but don't for the Tundra because of its internal magazine. Each weapon is good on paper when performing with their best attachments, but without them most of the time they drastically underperform.

Your videos are the only reason I know anything while playing. Maybe do a similar video but YOUR personal favorite 10 top guns or whatever.

Mate, you always post the videos I need.

Great reviews bro. Love your vids.

I was surprised to see svd, which I main when I find it in first place. It's not at all popular among all of my friends or any other people we come across. Interested to see how this statistic will evolve. great vid.

Personally, I'd put ammo cap in rhe primary slot. For most semi-auto and full-auto guns, it can potentially mean the difference between living and dying. Aside from that, great vid mate!

Wobo, the aweosome dude that teachs veterans new tricks, thanks! Cheers from Argentina!

Information overload. 😁 you are a true DayZ legend at this point. 👏👏 thanks

Amazing work, as always.

I would like to see the weapons based on practicality, so a list of weapons that, when you have x when do you swap it for y or z weapon. You can include ease of use, so does it need attachments, mags, etc to work well or no, how easy is it to find the ammo for it, is it an early, mid or endgame loot category etc. I think a lot of weapons would surprises people that they will be not that great of a choice and some will be. I know it will depend on the situation and what loot you have for said weapon etc but based on the stats is what I mean and you go from standpoint, no attachments or ammo found yet.

This is great for statistics of each gun on paper. Now you should do a test with each gun on a obstacle course to see how the performe in game situations. Time and efficiency.

The content creator that's never disapoints 💯💯💯

I think theres a few more things to consider. For example: how much extra value does the hunting scope give over a PU? The extra zoom can make hitting distant shots easier, even if its not quite as accurate as the mosin. Additionally, this stat doesnt consider the roles each gun can play. Non sniper rifles are best for close combat and the sk's low mag capacity and slow reload time combined with its lack of a full auto make it worse than the baby ak, or even some smgs. But, the sk would also probably be less preferable than a mosin or tundra at long ranges. Since it can do both effectively, its score makes sense, however, it doesnt take into account that by the time you find an sk you likely have a high teir sniper. This means that even though the sk is a better overall weapon than something like a baby ak, the ak is preferable because you already have a sniper. Anyways cool vid cool idea

My ideal gun combo is Mosin for long range SVAL for CQB. If I had to take just one gun I'd go for the LAR then SVD. Your stats feel rather spot on personal experience.

I used to use the double-barrel sawed off as my only sidearm in DayZ, with buckshot. My reasoning always was that if I have to switch to my sidearm I'm already seconds away from either dying or killing the threat in close quarters, so I might as well have the maximum hit probability/damage to dump in the shortest period of time. It has saved me numerous times. But this was back in like 2020. I don't know how much worse they've made it, I haven't played much since.

I think the biggest upset is the 3 snipey bolt bois. It doesn't take into account the onscreen recoil of the savannah making it hard to confirm hits and increasing the time between follow up shots, the savannah needing an extra part to be viable over the mosin and tundra, and the advantages of the higher magnification of the hunter scope that can't be used on the mosin.

Congratulation my man on the wedding, enjoy your well earned break

it's good knowing this sort of information for dayz

Not to be nitpicking but the AS VAL is technically a SMG Carbine hybrid. It fits best into the SMG category. Therefore making it the best SMG in the game.

So much effort in your videos bro

Please do one for melee weapons! Awesome video btw :)

Great vid. Still think my rank 1 is finding a worn IJ after you have 2 half mags

The svd in first place makes so much sense, it's literally on the game's cover art

Easily the best content creator for video games, period. I love your videos, Wobo.

You have my approval. Thanks for the info.

I'd appreciate also adding categories in: Either primary or secondary stats: Ammo rarity (after all without it weapon is just a worse hammer), mag rarity (the best score being that it doesn't need one) Tertiary stats: Whether iron sights are clear (so that it's pleasant to use them) or not This could make some weapons change places (like I feel AK-74 mags and ammo are very common, especially around Stary Sobor/VMC area plus being able to find 7.62x39 ammo elsewhere than militaries could let AKM jump a few places upwards).

It's hard to rank sawed-off weapons because inv space could mean the difference between having that weapon or not having it at all. The weight difference could also mean the difference of being able to jump a high fence/do a power melee attack or not. I would also rate the MKII higher because it has an indestructible silencer and headshots with it still kill, and it's a pretty common gun with very common ammo. Reload speed is hard to calculate since it depends on whether you have more mags or not, mags take an ass long time to reload while internal chamber weapons like the repeater rifle can be reloaded much more easily.

wobo, rankings look good to me at this time!

Dear Wobo, could you do a video about some things people want to see added to the game? For example: Crossbow+Craftable bolts, the vehicle physics from ARMA reforged, the handgun scope on the repeater carbine?

love how you used mass effect 2 loading screen background music

what mod or mode are you using that lets you test weapons and track bullet travel and hits??

thanks for the update to the site, one minor correction: BK18 still says 0.128% jam chance on its weapon page when i believe you said in 1.18 that it doesn't jam anymore

One slight problem I'm seeing already, the m79 actually does do loads of damage, it's just hard. But if you nail someone in the chest from about 5meters to about 25meters you can do anywhere from full health to about half health damage, plus knock out. From 25 meters to about 100meters if you land a headshot it also does damage/Insta kill plus and or knock outs. Me and my buddy were testing that the other day. Edit: i know this was a year ago so it could've changed too, but just letting ya know.

Tbh I always thought sawed off shotguns where better, I also always replaced my mkII but u made me realize it’s rlly good at taking down zombies quietly

Does anyone know if / when they started making the pioneer / scout way more common? I started a offline LAN server and found THREE (3) in one lifetime. One of them on the prison island and the other 2 at police car wrecks.

I love the Mosin an it’s always been my favorite gun in dayz. It can be found in low areas an it can kill highly geared players. It really levels the playing field. An so does the M16. I’ve really been enjoying the gun sense it’s been added. I’ve won some pretty sweaty gun fights with just a M16.

Please continue gods good work😎👍

Where are you finding the spawn rate information? I play official server and I have 3 vss and 2 sval. They’re a dime a dozen in rify. Also I’m pretty sure we have 4 101s across our squad. Another awesome video, thanks!

Can we have the dataset? Also asking this as my feedback is that I play on ps5 and I don't shoot out at ranges over 300 to 500 I normally just run and stay quiet. So wanting to see how the list changes when range had less weight

Do you know what rank the weapons are with the SNAFU mod? or where we could find that info

Great stuff where would the new ssg rifle rank?

I feel so proud to finally having an SVD with a mag and scope. I hope I won't die too soon

Hey folks, so the usg45...subsonic..?..is it the case then that its bullet sound just goes 250m without a supressor?

Would it be a good idea to run a shotgun/tundra load out with a reliable sidearm?

in my opinion it rarely matters, i mean of course having a fully kitted SVD/M4 combo is ideal but the spawn rates for most of those guns is so low (especially if you play high pop servers) that its always better to stick with whatever gun you have a mag + plenty of ammo for. I've run with the UMP-45 plenty of times and, even as "the worst SMG", it can still shred players up close Very interesting analysis though! I feel a lot more happy to have found so many SVDs knowing only 5 spawn per server lmao

I think u should take into consideration how a weapon reloads to have an affect on its score. The magazine based weapons are more time consuming and can be harder to use in the heat of battle especially with few bullets that’s why I love the pump and the revolver

I did not see the m70 tundra :( where would you put that into your ranking system?

Thank you for your service🫡

Would love to see this video with modded weps included if you haven't already done one?

Came for dayZ, left wanting to play mass effect 😂 thanks for the video 👍🏻

Hey wobo do detonators spawn anywhere industrial or only unique industrial

Great video WOBO, thx :) I´ve just started playing DayZ and came across 2 guns I don't think you´ve mentioned (Or I didn't see their names correct haha) a M300 or maybe it was 300M? And a 700R or R700 (Awesome looking gun, couldn't find any ammo for it unfortunately). Could you tell me some specs on these guns?

What song is at the end of wobo clips

Just a thought but weapons that only drop from helis should probably have a bump to rarity considering the rng to find a heli to begin with, not just how many are in any given server

How have they not offered you a career?! 🎉😮 You’re vids never fail to impress! ❤

I gotta get better with the pu scope, I have a hard time sniping without the zoom on the hunting scope at long ranges

I’d consider the bk-43 sawed off a tool rather than a weapon. It’s a nice way to carry a small shotgun to raid bases.

Thank u for ur service to day z community

would be great if you have smth like excel table of all weapons and stats to pickup weapon individually

Fun fact: Did you know the fireworks inflict damage if you stand on them while they shoot off a rocket ?

I'm not sure but it seems to me that the AUR AX is quieter than the M4 or Pioneer with the standard suppressor and in semi auto fire.

I think the sawn-off double barrel should be able to fit in a pistol holster then it could somewhat be worth it but mainly for style points

thankfully most weapons in DayZ are pretty lethal. my wife has gotten more kills with the sg5k and usg than anything else, despite having access to higher tier guns. love the sg5k and usg.

FAMAS is the best assault rifle in my opinion. That thing just Rips where an assault rifle is supposed to be good at. I’m not going to want to shoot past 300m with an M4 or AUX anyways.

Thanks :)

My favorite gun is the ka-m. It just feels good to me

🙋‍♂I'd love to see the best weapons you can fit in your pockets, in order to appear to be a Freshie. I think the Sawed-off Shotty w/ buckshot may place higher there.

Can you do a stats on NVGS please..spawn rate etc

why did you not the gold explosive rounds for the M79?

Ur the best dayz KZfaqr

Hey, the spawn rate is calculated in how long? It’s every hour ? ( For exemple the vsd spawn rate is 5, so 5 vsd spawn every hour ? Or every restart idk ? )

All hail Wobo

Had no idea how good the aug was until the other night when I was in a tdm server.Close to medium range it destroys

I think there are factors to include that have nothing to do with the math or stats. Like "does the gun support a standard or normalized suppressor?" That's my main issue with the blaze over the vsd even with double shot. Bottle suppressors are a pain in the ass.
