Musket Accuracy

Close Range

From 1 to 20 blocks distance, Muskets are accurate enough that it is recommended to NOT use a Scope due to the 1.75 second warmup for the Scope.

Long Distance

Past 25 blocks, it is recommended to start using the scope.

Musket Scope

The Scope allows for nearly perfect accuracy but takes an additional 1.75 seconds before the user can shoot.

Bullet Drop

When shooting distant targets, the bullet drop becomes increasingly noticeable. When traveling 250 blocks (1 second), the bullet will have dropped 5 blocks. To counter bullet drop, it is recommended to aim higher for further distances. Since the drop distance caused by gravity is exponential instead of constant, bullet drop is negligible in ranges less than 30 blocks.

Movement

Walking, sprinting, and jumping will all affect the spread of the Musket's bullet. Keep in mind that the higher the spread, the less accurate the shot is.

• Walking: +20% spread
• Running: +300% spread
• Jumping: +250% spread

Weapon Damage

Muskets have a base damage of 25. Where on the body the target is hit and distance away will affect damage. The further away a shot is, its damage will decrease. There is a 50% increase in damage when the target is hit on the head.
