Strategic Extraction Analysis

In the current meta, the M77 Assault Rifle occupies a niche position. Its moderate time-to-kill of 1.900s at close range makes it viable in most combat scenarios. The weapon requires 20 shots to eliminate a full-health target at close range, 22 at medium range, and 26 at long range. With 600 rounds per minute and a 24-round magazine, the M77 Assault Rifle can secure kills within a single magazine. Its headshot multiplier of 1.7x means skilled players can reduce TTK to 0.700s with consistent headshots. Range performance sees damage drop to 92% at medium range and 78% at long range. Players should prefer close-to-medium range encounters.
