Frequently Asked Questions
How does armor penetration work in CS2?
Each weapon has an armor penetration percentage. When hitting an armored hitbox (head, chest, stomach), damage is multiplied by this percentage. A weapon with 77.5% armor pen deals 77.5% of its normal damage to armored opponents.
Does distance affect damage in CS2?
Yes. Every weapon has a range modifier that reduces damage over distance. The modifier is applied per 500 game units (approximately 12.5 meters). Sniper rifles have very high range modifiers (98-99%) meaning almost no dropoff, while shotguns drop off rapidly.
Which CS2 weapons can one-shot headshot through helmet?
The AK-47, Desert Eagle, SG 553, SSG 08, AWP, SCAR-20, and G3SG1 can all one-shot headshot helmeted opponents at close range. The AK-47 and AWP maintain this at virtually any distance.
What is the headshot multiplier in CS2?
All weapons in CS2 have a 4x headshot damage multiplier. This means head damage equals the base damage times 4. Armor penetration is then applied if the target has a helmet.
