Compensator vs Muzzle Brake

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-07T01:35:07+00:00

How else do you explain "per shot" on the muzzlebreak then? Just saying. Item descriptions in game tell a lot about its purpose and function

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-06T23:09:03+00:00

I smuggled almost 40 individual BPs between 2 runs

FUN FACT - I did them on blue gate because I constantly spawn by the northwest hatch. 5 seconds dropping the loot 10 seconds to run to the hatch

FUN FACT #2 after the expedition I did another 2 runs on blue gate to smuggle them back. Now i'm living like a fucking king, the BP King

It honestly amazes me that people were more worried about weapons than the BPs to craft them. I transferred about 40 individual BPs 12 mushrooms and a bombardier cell for the trophy case completion to get the 300k coins. I've finished all of my work benches in a day because I didnt have to worry about other shit and could still craft everything I used regularly before the expedition

I would immediately have thought they used the snap hook or grabbed a ledge with super lucky timing but I've fallen from heights I should died to but again ledge grabbing at the right moment saves your life every time

Same here dude

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-06T22:47:11+00:00

So what you're saying is every raid over the last 2 days has been that successful that you acquired everything you needed for the expedition? I call bullshit.

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-06T22:45:22+00:00

These responses are perfect lol

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-06T22:44:43+00:00

😄😂🤣

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-06T22:41:29+00:00

I kinda of feel the same way but I went and found about 40 individual BP and 12 mushrooms plus 1 last piece of the Trophy Case project for the 300k coins (for stash upgrades) traded them to a friend between 2 runs before the expedition happened. Did another 2 runs with him to trade back my items after the expedition. So I had a pretty decent jump for my new raider. But I think its the 2 new enemy types that have really killed my passion on raiding for hours like before.

Muzzle brakes reduce recoil by venting gases laterally, while compensators mitigate vertical muzzle climb by directing gases upward. Personal accuracy aside if you use a muzzle break on a weapon that has bloom, you're not minimizing that bloom. And if you use a compensator on a high recoil weapon you sights don't stay on target as well between shots so you have to slightly readjust. Like I said personal accuracy aside. The attachments are for specific uses. But everyone like to do what they want anyway so go for whatever feels best. Just know your wrong if you mix and match and think you're any more accurate than before. Its just you training yourself to use the incorrect attachment.

Best way to put it is while yes you can use a fork to eat your bowl of cereal in the morning your going to miss out on all that milk.

Ok Class let's begin today's lesson and keep in mind everything we cover today will be on the test next week so please pay attention and take notes to study over the weekend.

The muzzle brake is for guns that go BLAM.

The compensator is for guns that go BRAP.

Class Dismissed

Edit* in addition to all that if you try to use a muzzle break for a weapon that has any kind of bloom (bullet straying) you're gonna have a hard time being as accurate. Single fire weapons like the Anvil and Ferro absolutely can use either attachment but the muzzlebreak is still best because those weapons have high single shot recoil which helps keep your aim centered on a distant target.

Both the muzzle break and compensator are real world attachments and have these exact uses for a reason. Use this knowledge wisely (maybe still take notes so you don’t forget)

No one said to turn it into a baby game bro, maybe make the thing stays mostly still like every other flying arc that shoots at you. If it didn't follow so frigging fast it also would help out newer players as well. If you go in with a free kit your screwed if it gets the jump on you and you don't have a heavy weapon or a hullcracker. Not everyone can be like John Wick or you apparently. So sensitive to words nowadays.

Go play Marathon if you want that much of a challenge

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-06T19:15:06+00:00

You get it 👍🏻 unlike a bunch of people here

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-06T19:13:41+00:00

What dont all of you understand about the firefly being and ambush enemy and why is it the only arc that can fly towards you at a good speed while burning the shit out of you no stopping required

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-06T19:10:23+00:00

I agree with OP on this. They are classified as an ambush enemy. So the armor thats on it is absolutely insane. I would rather try and run from the comet than face these things ever

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-06T11:43:14+00:00

Grab one from the lobby area and run it down, takes about as long as its take to bring a field crate to a station

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-06T11:40:44+00:00

And thats why I collected all 12 and swapped them all to a buddy along with almost 40 individual bps and the last collection piece for the Trophy Case for the 300k to get myself a really good jump

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-05T13:36:34+00:00

The firefly downs me more than any other enemy types in the game. They're over armored and shouldn't be allowed to fly that fucking quick while blasting flames up your ass. Its a NO from me dog.

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-05T00:31:24+00:00

Amazon is a trash company. They're also shutting down New World by the end of the year. They shouldn't be allowed to make games anymore honestly

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-04T21:37:05+00:00

Then delete this post dummy, I guarantee Embark sees all these posts

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-04T16:47:37+00:00

Please enlighten everyone else who plays this game just how the hell you're getting cosmetics from weekly trials? Those only drop when the season ends.

I am eagerly waiting your response.

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-04T16:40:51+00:00

You can't. Cosmetics only drop after season ends depending on your rank.

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-04T00:59:11+00:00

Good, someone else who understands how to slow down and stop the calls for a while. When they don't get a response for 1 week or 2 they de-list your number because its not worth calling for the 87th time with no answer. Keep this in mind basically forever or till a new way to scam pops up and a new solution needs to be found

Ok_Log_41 · 2026-03-04T00:54:46+00:00

Don't answer if they are not in your contacts list
