Usage Pattern Charts

  • By Map: Shows which PUBG maps this weapon is most popular on, helping you pick the right weapon for each map.
  • Combat Distances: Average distances where players hit and kill with this weapon on different maps. Useful for understanding optimal engagement ranges.
  • Game Phase: When players use this weapon during matches (Early/Mid/Late game). Circles (●) represent match progression.
  • Distance Profile: Distribution of engagements across distances shown as percentages. Reveals the weapon's most common combat ranges.

Damage Range Chart (Main Chart)

The interactive chart above shows how weapon damage varies with distance and victim armor. Select different helmets and vests to see how armor affects damage to different body parts. Toggle hit zones (Head, Torso, Arm, Leg, etc.) to compare damage values. The "Current configuration" banner shows your selected setup.

About Our Data (Beta)

This feature is in beta. We collect and analyze millions of telemetry events from PUBG matches daily to bring you the most accurate weapon statistics possible.

What you should know:

  • Missing data points: If you see gaps in the chart, it means we don't have enough sample data in that distance bucket yet to show it confidently.
  • Unusual values: Some values may appear unexpected as we continue to refine our analysis algorithms and collect more data.
  • Continuous improvement: Our data collection and processing systems are constantly being improved to provide better accuracy.
