How many shots does it take to go down?

[Daddy Kaneki]

Sometimes it takes me 4 hits to go down and I don't know why. It's very rare that I survive 3 hits, but it happens. Does anyone know why or how this occurs?

[Aîze]

Limb shot, upper body shots, lower body shots, headshots

Also some factions have body armor and others don't. Really it all depends on where you're shot, what faction you are, what weapon you were hit with, etc.

Head: 1
Chest: 2
Legs: 3-4

The big issue with the amount of bullets needed to take someone down is latency, if you body shot someone it takes 2 bullets but if there is latency then they wont die until you've fired a 4th or 5th shot, also range might be a factor, but idk how much it affects damage.

As primarily a scoped riflemen with 1900hrs playing I can say that most headshots will be kill shots +-5% of the shots will require another shot.
If its not a head shot it most likely will take two rounds to drop someone, +-20% of the time.
So, aim for the head like it do.
Ak rounds may take as many less as 1 or as many as 5
