towards all the weapon variants tools and consumables for example weapons and custom ammo are unlocked by earning a certain amount of xp if i wanted to use this mosin sniper i can see here in the store that i would first need to gather some more xp to do this i would need to kill either ai or players using a previous weapon variant in the unlocked tree in this case any of these mosin variants would work this way of unlocking applies to all weapon variants in the game the next method applies for most tools and consumables let's use the vitality shot as an example you first start with the weak vitality shot which heals you for NUMBER_TOKEN hp to unlock the big vitality shot that will heal you fully you will need to use the wheat vitality shot NUMBER_TOKEN times in order to unlock it if you need any help with unlocks in the description i have a link to the hunt showdown wiki that explains how to unlock each item part NUMBER_TOKEN of this guide will help you understand how emma works and hunt showdown let's begin by talking about bass ammo there are NUMBER_TOKEN types of bass ammo in the game you have compact ammo medium ammo long ammo shotgun shells and special ammo now special ammo is completely different from custom ammo things that are considered special ammo are bolts for crossbows the dulce ammo bomb lance and the nitro express the devs put these weapons into their own category for balancing reasons because these weapons are very powerful for what they do along with custom ammo special ammo weapons need to find purple ammo crates in order to get ammo back in game shotgun shells are just your basic buckshot you do need to be relatively close to your enemy and you should aim for the chest area for these to work long medium and compact ammo have unique features that differ from each category these weapons are separated by caliber and for that have special uses for example when it comes to wall penetration the long demo has the best pin and from there it decreases in each category this is also true for the overall damage muzzle velocity and range of each of the weapons in their own categories as far as the other stats you can see listed they really apply more to the weapon in question than to the overall category but on average the compact ammo weapons will have the fastest rate of fire weapons and hunt are really well balanced so it's really more about how you use your weapon than which weapon you have equipped a compact ammo winfield can still go toe-to-toe with the long ammo mosin if the situation is played correctly let's now take a look at the custom ammo in hunt showdown since their release this year the devs have made a bunch of changes to just about every ammo in this video we're not going to really talk about what the best ammos are but instead let's just focus on what they do starting with shotguns we have five custom ammos to cover clachette rounds cause enemies to bleed when they're hit this ammo is really good at applying pressure star shells are literally just flares that can light up an area that can also blow up barrels if shot directly sludge shoot a single projectile that turn your shotgun into a short range rifle penny shot will deal increased damage
