The Dragunov
The Dragunov is a Sniper Rifle in ZombsRoyale.io, only found in Gold Chests. It only spawns as Mythic and was added to the game on December 13, 2018.[1]
It has a magazine size of just one, meaning it has to reload after every shot.
Like all Snipers, the Dragunov gives you an increased field of view which makes it easier to see and shoot enemies. Its FOV is a bit bigger than that of the Bolt-Action Sniper but smaller than that of the AWP.
The main feature that sets the Dragunov apart from other Snipers is its large amount of knockback of each bullet. At medium range it can do up to 50 or 60 damage and at long range it can do up to 77 damage. The Dragunov also has high bullet speed so you should only aim slightly in front of your enemy.
| Damage | DPS | Magazine size | Reload time | Ammo type | Spread | Speed | Range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M=15-77 | M=15-77 | 1 | 1.7 seconds | Large | Medium | Medium | Long++ |
Strategies[]
- Always try to use this at medium++ to far+ distance.
- The Dragunov can be paired with a high-quality AR and/or a Semi-Auto or VSS for a powerful combo. You should use the Semi and/or AR or VSS to weaken them and finish them with the Dragunov, or vice-versa.
- Use the knockback to your advantage. It can be used to push enemies into gunfire, into the gas, out of cover, or to mess with their aim.
- This Sniper can be better than the AWP if used correctly.
Trivia[]
- The Dragunov is based on the SVD rifle which is named after its designer Yevgeny Dragunov.
- Despite having a magazine in the photo, after each round the Dragunov needs to chamber a new bullet, which can be annoying in tight spaces
