Summary[]
The AS VAL is a carbine that fires the 9x39mm cartridge, dealing 26.25 damage on average (5.5x Head, 0.85x Torso, 0.75x Limbs), while it appears to have low damage, the modifiers make it a formidable weapon unless you're hitting the limbs specifically. Along with a high firerate and above average accuracy it has a quick reload animation and is internally suppressed allowing for much quieter shots.
However, it only supports a 20 round magazine meaning that it's easily outmatched in terms of magazine capacity, and the high recoil makes it difficult to use in long ranged combat.
Modification[]
Modifying the AS VAL gives limited options, those being the sights, ammo and others. These give user some room to modify their weapon for optimal performance though compared to other weapons it's a poor choice for modifying.
Tips[]
- When using the AS VAL, try using it at close or medium range as that's where it's the most effective in combat.
