Tarkov's Most Accurate Shotgun Round Is Not What It Seems
Рет қаралды 154,994
Күн бұрынIs Supeformance actually good? There are many slugs in Tarkov, all with different characteristics so it can be very difficult to choose. Some players like Superformance for its fast projectile speed, which over range can be an advantage - however the way that Tarkov’s zeroing system currently works can turn this into an issue.
In this video we test the effect of this across ranges up to 200m, and also look at the selection of slugs to see if there are any better contenders in our possible selection!

Good video my man! The last few days i've actually been looking into this myself but with a totally different reasoning. The decrease in recoil! It tends to be helpfull for its spammability at around 50m. One thing i find interesting is that FTX matches the 20 pen fragmentation limit, but the low 10% chance would make it happen in 1/3 or 1/4 battles at most. I'm not sure if fragmentation works well but that's how it should be with my understanding, making it less than ideal to build upon. The one thing superformance has that makes it a strong contender for first place for leg meta rounds, to me, is that it will often be a 2 hit because of its incredibly high chance to cause bleeds. It's often i get off 2 leghits but dont get off a third, yet then i hear the groan of them dropping dead because of a bleed they couldn't tend to in time. As superformance will leave you at 2-8 hp a lot of the time Most people arent on a propital as default painkiller so the bleeds are a godsent. Yet this is kind of outshadowed by RIPs 2 hit kill guarantee at these types of ranges. I can highly recommend FTX in a saiga tho, spamming it from a 20 rounder at a group of PMC's legs is an absolute treat with its lower recoil. Their intense panic as half of them aren't permanently painkillered is hilarious.

Haha yeah pretty cool! I had a little go at testing thr ftx fragmentation but I didn't get any, although I didn't do loads so could have been unlucky. I have a feeling it won't fragment becuase it's right at the threshold, I've never tested myself where that threshold lies!

Great video! I tried to use superformance slugs for that "kill scavs on woods with shotguns" quest, and attempting to snipe with them was really frustrating: at long range I just kept missing 90% of shots with no idea where the rounds were going. Unfortunately-- in retrospect-- what I spent most of my time trying to do was hold over the target at increasing heights, as I assumed the rounds were sinking. I was probably a whole man-height above those targets.

You know a solid potential fix (but probably not an easy one!) would be to have a drop down menu at the stash screen on a weapon similar to the one magazines get to load ammo. Instead, the ammo you select from your stash zeroes the gun to that ammo's velocity and drop. I think that'd be a reasonable solution to this issue and something like SuperFormance would be a clear winner.

@jacuul6735 2 жыл бұрын
One benefit with leg meta rounds, is that if you hit them in the legs and they have painkillers on, running (which most smart players will do) can deal some heavy damage if they don't have propital handy. Early in the wipe, I had a fight where I dropped a two-stack, but had almost all limbs blacked and while running 10 feet to another room, the "running on blacked legs" damage killed me
@Gigabeef 2 жыл бұрын
Yeah depends on the range. Superformance is kinda nice to look at on that basis because it's 440 for 2 hits in theory so every meter is a bit more damage you need - at short ranges a bleed is going to cause them real issues, under 20 you probably don't have time to fix it before dying I would imagine
@shelltoe_soul 2 жыл бұрын
@@jacuul6735 The blacked leg damage from running used to be occasionally bugged too when you would run. I don't know if the bug is still in the game, or how often it occurs if it still does, but it caused you to take excessive amounts of damage to your remaining limbs and would kill you very quickly. I also remember it being basically unpredictable, sometimes it would take you out after like 3 steps, sometimes you would have almost no damage from sprinting with blacked legs. I don't know if it is still around or if it was fixed when they changed the blacked limb damage, but what you are describing sounds to me like that bug. Also I think if you sprint with blacked legs while also having a blacked head or torso, you can instantly kill yourself. At least that is how it used to work, admittedly I haven't been playing this wipe as I'm not really an inertia enjoyer :(

What if you use the upper part of the ring on your scope to aim? Some of the scopes like the hamr, eotech holo, compact and the shotgun okp 7 etc. all have dot-and-ring style sightpictures. You could maybe use the upper part of the ring as a reference point and then work out a zero that works for most distances if you wanted to use the high velocity round. On some scopes these rings are rangefinders btw and if a standing soldier fills the ring it equates to some predetermined distance, idk how well tarkov models that but it might be worth checking out the scope manuals for that.

If the 2 shots don't kill, don't worry, the double bleed that you most likely inflicted will take care of them. Don't forget about the status effects that these rounds cause, essentially forcing the enemy to run / hide to heal the bleeds, or keep fighting and bleed out.
@TheReaver1234 Жыл бұрын
while the zeroing is a problem you can compensate for that with your aim, the really good thing about the SP shells is not just the high damage and accuracy. You are forgeting that they also have an EXTREMELY high chance per hit to inflict bleeds, meaning i hit you 2 times at distance and you now have to make a choice. You can shoot back and me and run around on you scant 50 or less health with likely 2 bleeds or you can stop and try to med allowing me to push you or wait till you bleed out. combine this with the lower recoil and the tighter spread i can blow off a pmc's legs at range, duck to cover, and wait till he dies or just drop him outright with 2 shot at closer. Its not a perfect shell but with that VERY high chance to put a light or heavy bleed on target you gotta factor in that i shoot you 2 times at lets say 50m and you now have a heavy bleed and only 28 hp left on you body and you are HEMORAGING that hp because your bleeding likely in 2 ways. These rounds can be a terror to fight.

Something I've been wondering about is the effect of muzzle velocity on damage and pen. How much more can a longer barrel get out of your ammo, and how much would you lose by using a shortened one.
@Gigabeef 2 жыл бұрын
Very little, it's been implemented in a strange way. The starting velocity of your gun is what gets set to the base round damage/pen, and the drop off starts from there rather than the round's intrinsic velocity. Bizarrely, this means that because longer barrels have a higher starting speed, the drop-off happens slightly quicker, due to greater air resistance! I.e shorter barrels do a tiny bit more damage/pen at range - it's a small effect, but odd nonetheless! For practical purposes though it makes no difference.

MOA = minute of angle, it’s a unit of measurement used in sighting in rifles and measuring their accuracy and it represents the variable in the bullets trajectory, and impact point over multiple shots, in an optimum scenario the gun is In the exact same place in space and an average group of impacts will hit within that moa; ie 3.15 moa. Whatever you shoot at, your hits can drift 3.15 minutes of angle within the scope you’ve sighted for, The problem with tarkov is the huge variety of scopes and the immediate nature of a video game makes the process of implementing the default that the gun is sighted to shoot flat at can’t be tweaked, they need to steal a bit of the sighting and flight-level@“?ms”- rise- fall level @“?”, Eg id set my hunting rifles to hit flat at 200yards and by the time the bullet would rise and fall, it’d hit the same mark by 400 yards

I have had great luck with killing scavs with headshots on shoreline for the quest at long range using superformance, but I typically run a shorter barrel. So question is, does running a pump with a shorter barrel negate the velocity disparity causing a more zeroable gun with slugs. I typically like using 133, m870, and my fav is the mossy 500 as a ergo build with slugs. The mossy is the favorite cause 99 ergo is very easily available early for around 60k and hits like a truck with ap20 or rip slugs and has great iron sights. (Killed 7 players while money running on woods with a 99 ergo mossy and ap20 on woods last time I played) also no one takes a insured pump action and is great for insurance fraud if you kill someone with a nice gun.

Great vid! I have one question, however. Maybe I do not understand EFT's health-system correctly, but I wonder how you conclude that Superformace is usually a 3-shot kill (and not a 2-shot one). I always thought that killing with collateral damage did not require the entire health pool to be removed, but just to transfer 35+ damage to the head. In that case, even at ~300m Superformace would have enough damage to kill in two leg-shots, even if you do not hit the same leg twice. Am I getting this wrong?

@@tejateja5125 nah, the way they have it is intuitive and makes sense. if it’s faster to empty someone’s head HP by hitting their legs, why would you want to aim for their head? it also makes 0 sense from a “realism” standpoint that your head would take more damage from your legs getting hit then say your stomach or torso.

I think I follow what you're asking, overflow damage from a blacked limb is applied proportionally to the size of the remaining limbs health pool. So think of it as the game saying the bullet does x % of your current health pool and reducing all non blacked limbs by that %. In that way your chest will always take slightly more damage than your head due to being a larger health pool. I don't think I've seen this specific mechanic mentioned a ton, I only learned it from a Veritas video, the guy who made Battle Buddy

you forget to mention the surprisingly high heavy bleeding chance SF has. if you hit someone 2 times in the legs, they are likely going to bleed out without being able to patch themselves.

so at 1:20 you forgot about blacked out limbs in your math with the recent changes the damage would be spread across more of the body. So if you shot someone if the leg with SF and blacked it out the % of HP every part shares goes up and they take more damage to each body part and sense its high flesh it will black out limbs too making them take even more damage. You could protentional 2 shot someone in the legs from beyond 50m

seems like they could just tighten up velocities and trajectories between the different rounds in each caliber so scopes zero properly with all ammo instead of 1 round per type lmfao

I know people have said that ammo cannot fragment unless it has at least 20 penetration, does this apply regardless of the range it's fired from? Since the ballistic changes I wonder if ammo that normally can fragment, say the FTX slug at 20, won't fragment at all because the pen drops below 20 as soon as it leaves the barrel?

You don't actually need 440 damage to kill a player that would be overkill. You only need to get either their thorax or head to 0. Idk if it matters here or not but normally the head gets blacked wayyyy before the thorax since its a smaller health pool.
@Gigabeef Жыл бұрын
Damage proportionally distributes across each limb by %, so all full health limbs get to 0 at the same time when hitting one blacked limb
@dekay77 Жыл бұрын
@@Gigabeef I always thought it was distrusted evenly and not promotionally. I guess I was wrong. I thought 100 damage to a blacked limb was 100/remaining parts. Theres also bleeds that take more % health from the head than the other parts. A bleed would do over double damage to the head hitbox over the thorax but still be the same number decrease.

If the gun just auto zeroed to the round you are using it would make the in-game zeroing so useful. I think that it's reasonable to say a trained pmc would know how to zero their gun before the raid.

This is the 2nd best solution - bit of a mess with mixed mags as the reticle would jump around but it would still be better than what we have now. Best is to pick a bullet on the config of the weapon itself - then it's up to the player, closer to real life, and better than what we have currently!

The 133 with the long barrel with the choke gets to 9.8 empty, and 9.49 with the salvo, which is identical to the 153 with choke and with salvo. The revolver shotgun is very close but does have slightly better at 9.34.
