SVD

The SVD is a DMR in Wardogs that fires 7.62x54mm. It does 55 damage per hit at 480 rounds per minute and costs $4,800. Against an unarmored 100 HP target it needs 2 hits.
Is the SVD good?
The SVD is S tier on our tier list and ranks 1 of 3 DMRs on time to kill through level 2 armor.
With standard ammo it takes 2 shots to the chest to kill an unarmored player (125 ms), 3 through level 2 armor (250 ms) and 4 through level 4 (375 ms).
The right ammo changes that: hollow point rounds kill an unarmored player in 1 shot, armor piercing cuts level 4 to 3 shots (250 ms).
Legs are never armored, so 2 shots to the upper leg kill even a level 4 player with hollow point ammo.
Nothing in its class kills faster through level 2 armor, so it is the DMR to buy when you can afford it.
We use it in long range loadout.
