• Silencer range reduce

Hello, does anyone know how much range does silencer reduce? Like, on M4 and Bolt Action Rifle? Because I wanted to check if its worth implenting on em' silencers.
I found this on playrustwiki: [QUOTE]The Silencer will also decrease the range (-10%) and the damage (-10%) of the chosen weapon.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Conamidos;44832020]I found this on playrustwiki:[/QUOTE] the range part is correct however the dmg part isnt
It won't decrease the damage just the range . damage 0% range about 35% . haven't played for 1-2 months but I think that was it
[QUOTE=Unemphatic;44832068]the range part is correct however the dmg part isnt[/QUOTE] the range part is not ccorrect either, bolt action drops from 240 to like ~160, you call that 10%????

[QUOTE=liamc1997;44832331]Is that right for sure?[/QUOTE] Yep it is correct .
unless someone does something a little more scientific to test exactly how much range is lost, i think its safe to just say "loses range, dont think it loses damage" :)
Damage is defs dropped. Not by much. A full blast on animals even shows it usually.
Tested a long time ago and nothing changed . It doesn't decrease damage - try it on a fellow player and you shall see it's the exact same amount with or without and the range is decreased by 35%

AFAIK it only changes the shotgun's damage but it's not bullet damage that changes, it's bullet spread. The silencer concentrates the spread a bit, ultimately increasing the damage at max range since the bullets are closer together and more will hit where you are shooting. Range is def more than a 10% diff, its more like 40%.. You can easily see this on a bolt action... its almost useless with a silencer, might as well use a M4.
Damage is reduced, you can test it on animals. Been a while since I did it but unsilenced bolt is 4 hits on a bear for a kill, silenced it's 5 for a kill. There is a range reduction but have no clue by how much. I only use a silencer on a shotty if I wanna farm animals without attracting attention, the drawbacks are to big for any other gun.
