M249 SAW
The M249 SAW is an LMG in Wardogs that fires 5.56x45mm. It does 28 damage per hit at 850 rounds per minute and costs $3,200. Against an unarmored 100 HP target it needs 4 hits.
Is the M249 SAW good?
The M249 SAW is A tier on our tier list, and the only LMG in the game.
With standard ammo it takes 4 shots to the chest to kill an unarmored player (212 ms), 6 through level 2 armor (353 ms) and 10 through level 4 (635 ms).
The right ammo changes that: hollow point rounds kill an unarmored player in 2 shots, armor piercing cuts level 4 to 7 shots (424 ms).
Legs are never armored, so 4 shots to the upper leg kill even a level 4 player with hollow point ammo.
