Tips for PUBG Mobile: Learn how to use weapons efficiently

Developed by Lightspeed & Quantum studio in partnership with PUBG Corporation, PUBG Mobile is the version of the Playerunknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) franchise for smartphones. The game, available for Android and iOS operating systems, has a wide variety of weapons, counting more than 30, where players can find them scattered around the map or in special boxes.

Most weapon models can be found as you travel around the map, however there are some items that are only provided through loadouts during matches. See what they are and in what context it is best to use them when playing.

Melee weapons

These types of weapons are ideal to be used as secondary weapons during combat. The right time to make the best use of these is at the beginning of the battle, which is when opponents don't have many items yet. They are more efficient in conflicts where the enemies are very close to you, where when they are taken by surprise, victory is almost certain.

Observation: this type of weapon can be thrown at enemies.

Pistols and special weapons

Like melee weapons, pistols are ideal for use during close-quarters skirmishes. This is due to the fact that this type of weapon does not have a great type cadence and does not have the ability to hit opponents at great distances. It is recommended to use them more at the beginning of the matches and then use another firearm.

There is still the option to use the crossbow, which is not classified in any other type of weapon. She is capable of dealing great damage to enemies, but requires excellent aiming skill. It is recommended that the player use it on opponents who are more vulnerable.

Shotguns

This kind of weapon, when used at close range, can cause significant damage to opponents. When the shot is carried out at a medium distance, the bullet projectiles are dispersed a lot and their efficiency has decreased considerably. It is recommended to use shotguns indoors on the map, for example in houses or buildings.

To use the shotgun, it is not necessary to have an excellent aim to be able to deal good damage to the enemy. Another point that is interesting to highlight is the issue of the weapon's reload time, which has to be considered by the player, as there is a certain slowness to perform the action, in addition to a small amount of bullets supported by the magazine.

Submachine guns

The submachine guns are an interesting type of weapon for their high rate of shots per second, however it is necessary for the player to keep in mind that it is a short to medium range firearm. If the player tries to hit opponents from a great distance, the accuracy of the shots will drop drastically. To alleviate this deficiency, it is recommended to use a long-range weapon together, such as assault rifles or sniper rifles.

Assault Rifles

This type of weapon is one of the most balanced to use during battles, as they have good efficiency both at medium and short distances. In addition, the Assault Rifle can deal considerable damage with only 3 shots to opponents who are without some protection.

In terms of performance, the rifle can be said to be between submachine guns and rifles. Its cadence is not too slow or too fast and it can be fought with some efficiency in short and medium distances. They are generally indicated for combat in open environments.]

sniper rifles

In this typology we have snipers and DMRs (Designated Marksman Rifle). These weapons have the ability to hit enemies located at long distances, in addition to causing great damage to the opponent. When using them, the player needs to be aware that their rate of fire is very slow and it is not advisable to shoot at short distances.

To cover the shortcomings of sniper rifles, it is recommended to use close-range weapons such as shotguns and submachine guns together.
