Bounty Hunter Taser Inquiry

[Haunter]

Bounty Hunters often use the MX assault rifle (or some MX series variant not sure which exactly) to down their targets. How many bullets does it take to "down" a player with an MX "taser"? How do tasers react when striking a player wearing armor? How do tasers react when striking a wall or car? Do(Does) the script(s) that create tasers alter the performance of the bullet or do they retain all the properties of a regular bullet being fired from an MX assault rifle?

I'll try to see if the mission file has any data on this

Same as lethal ammunition - instead of killing them, it is programmed to "down" them. 

[No Armor]

1 shot - Body / Head

2~3 shot - Legs/Arms 

 

[Tactical Vest]

2~3 shot - Body

2~3 shot - Legs/Arms 

 

[Carrier Light]

3~4 shot - Body

2~3 shot - Legs/Arms 

 

[~w/ Helmet]

1~2 shot - Head 

^ Really depends on where you get hit. 

Flat surface = 1 shot

Edge = 2 shot 

 

Penetration (MX ; MXC have same penetration value as 5.56mm)

Penetrate (MX): 

• Thin metal fences 
• Wooden doors 
• Pretty much most of the houses (1 layer of wall) 
• White walls (commonly seen on major cities - 2meters in height) 
• Doors and glasses of certain vehicles : Offroad, Hatchback, SUVs, & Jeeps
• etcs.

 

EDIT: It is a "rubber" round, not a taser.

Are you on crack? Its 1 shot in the head even with a helmet and 1 shot in leg or arm when you have no armor.

Tracer mags are downing rounds.

P07 always downs.

There's a script in place that downs the target when they reach a value under 5HP from tracer rounds.

They are otherwise the same as normal bullets, and are just as strong.

a rook kills you 2 bullets to the head with a helmet

you deserved it if you get shot in the head twice by a Rook.
