This BGMI weapon damage calculator tells you exactly how many shots it takes to kill an enemy, how long it takes, and how much damage each hit deals. Select your weapon, the enemy’s armor level, and the hit zone, and the answer comes instantly. The tool also includes a weapon comparison chart, a full Time-To-Kill (TTK) visualizer, and a shots-to-kill reference table covering 28 guns.
How to Use the BGMI Damage Calculator
The BGMI Weapon Damage Calculator tool has four tabs. Here is what each one does.
- Damage Calculator: Pick a weapon, an armor level (No Armor to Level 3), and a hit zone. Hit Calculate. You get shots to kill, time to kill, damage per shot, and DPS.
- Compare: Select two weapons side by side. The tool shows a bar chart, a full stat table, and a verdict for five scenarios: close range, vs Level 3 armor, range advantage, recoil control, and magazine size.
- TTK Chart: Every weapon ranked by time-to-kill on a horizontal bar chart. Filter by armor level or weapon category. Hover any bar for the full breakdown.
- STK Table: A searchable, filterable reference table showing shots to kill at every armor level. Toggle between body and head shot modes.
Key Numbers Every BGMI Player Should Know
In BGMI, every player starts with 100 HP. That is the only number that matters when you are deciding how many bullets to fire.
Armor reduces incoming damage significantly. A Level 2 vest, the most common vest in endgame circles, cuts damage to 60% of its base value. That turns the AKM’s 49 damage into 29.4 effective damage, which means 4 shots to the body instead of 3. The difference between winning and losing a gunfight is often just that one extra bullet.
Here is a quick reference:
| Armor Level | Damage Modifier |
|---|---|
| No Armor | 100% |
| Level 1 Vest | 70% |
| Level 2 Vest | 60% |
| Level 3 Vest | 45% |
Headshots deal 2.5× damage before armor is applied. At Level 2, a headshot from the AKM deals 73.5 damage, so two headshots kill. One headshot plus one body shot also kills (73.5 + 29.4 = 102.9). That combination is why AKM players who tap the head first win most duels.
The AWM is the only weapon that one-shots through a Level 3 helmet. It does 105 base damage. Even with Level 3 armor reducing damage to 45%, a headshot calculates to 118 effective damage; still above 100 HP.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. How many shots does the M416 take to kill in BGMI?
Against a Level 2 vest with body shots, the M416 takes 5 shots. It does 41 base damage × 0.60 armor mod = 24.6 damage per hit. At 85ms between shots, that is a 340ms TTK. Against no armor, it drops to 3 shots.
2. What is the fastest TTK weapon in BGMI?
The Vector has the highest fire rate in the game at 54ms between shots. Against a bare enemy, it kills in 2 shots; a 54ms TTK. The catch is its tiny 19-round default magazine and very short effective range. It only works inside buildings or at point-blank distance.
3. Does the AWM one-shot through Level 3 armor?
Yes, to the head. The AWM does 105 base damage. A headshot multiplies that by 2.5, giving 262.5 raw damage. Even after Level 3 armor reduces it to 45%, the effective damage is 118; above 100 HP. Body shots with the AWM do not one-shot a Level 3 player.
4. AKM or M416; which is better?
It depends on the fight. The AKM kills faster at close range with no armor (3 body shots vs 4 for M416). The M416 wins every other scenari. Lower recoil, better control at range, and more consistent performance against armored enemies. Use the Compare tab above to run them against any armor level and see the TTK difference yourself.
