About this converter
Counter-Strike 2 lists fixed base damage per bullet for each weapon. Values come from game data tables used by community databases. The AWP deals 115, the highest rifle tier here. The SSG 08 deals 88. Auto snipers SCAR-20 and G3SG1 deal 80 each. The Desert Eagle deals 53. Rifles sit lower. The M4A1-S deals 38, the AK-47 deals 36, the M4A4 deals 33, the Galil AR and FAMAS deal 30 each, the SG 553 deals 30 and the AUG deals 28. Pistols and SMGs sit lower still. The USP-S deals 35, the Glock-18 deals 30 and the P90 deals 26.
How to use it
Pick two weapons and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. One box holds a count of the first weapon, one holds the matching count of the second, one holds total damage. Try the AWP against the Glock-18 to see the 115 to 30 gap, then the AK-47 against the M4A4.
Damage is per bullet to the chest before armor, range falloff and hitbox multipliers. Headshots multiply base damage, usually by 4. Some lists show the Desert Eagle at 63 or the Glock at 28. Game file dumps read 53 for the Desert Eagle and 30 for the Glock, so this table uses those. Armor penetration and fire rate sit outside this table, which covers base damage only.
FAQ
How much base damage does the AWP deal?
115 base damage per bullet. It is the hardest hitting weapon in this table.
How much base damage does the AK-47 deal?
36 base damage. A headshot multiplies that, which is why it one-taps helmets at close range.
How much base damage does the Desert Eagle deal?
53 per the game file dumps. Some calculators show 63, which looks like an error carried between sites.
Do these numbers include armor and range?
No. These are per-bullet chest values before armor, range falloff and hitbox multipliers. Use them to rank weapons, not to predict exact kill shots.
