THE FINALS Weapon Stats: Damage, RPM & DPS by Build

Every gun in THE FINALS is locked to one build class, so the real question is never “what is the best gun overall” but “what does this chart say about the class I am running.” The numbers below are community-verified values; exact damage and fire rate shift with balance patches, so treat the table as a reading frame and re-check after major season updates.

Class health pools come first

THE FINALS is built around three health pools, and every damage number only means something against them:

• Light: 150 HP
• Medium: 250 HP
• Heavy: 350 HP

That spread is why a gun that shreds a Light in half a second can feel anemic against a Heavy. Before comparing weapons, decide which pool you are usually shooting at — and remember you are also one of these pools yourself, which is why Heavy builds survive bursts that delete Lights.

Core weapon stats chart

Weapon	Build	Damage (body)	Fire rate	Magazine	Notes
M11	Light	21	900 RPM	—	Fastest mainstream TTK up close
SR-84	Light	112 headshot	60 RPM	—	Bolt-action; headshots or nothing
FCAR	Medium	26	600 RPM	—	The medium-range benchmark rifle
M60	Heavy	22	550 RPM	100	Sustained suppression, huge pool of ammo
Flamethrower	Heavy	32 per tick	continuous	—	Damage ticks; punishes grouped, slow targets

Magazine sizes for some guns vary by attachment loadout, so they are listed only where the stock value is stable.

What the TTK actually looks like

Time-to-kill is reproducible: shots to kill = ceil(health / damage), then TTK = (shots − 1) × 60 / RPM. Against the Medium 250 HP pool, with body damage and no range falloff:

Weapon	vs Light (150)	vs Medium (250)	vs Heavy (350)
M11 (21 dmg, 900 RPM)	~0.47s	~0.73s	~1.07s
FCAR (26 dmg, 600 RPM)	~0.50s	~0.90s	~1.30s
M60 (22 dmg, 550 RPM)	~0.65s	~1.20s	~1.64s

Three lessons fall out of that table:

1. Every gun kills a Light roughly twice as fast as a Heavy. If you hunt Heavies, you either need headshots (SR-84) or area denial (Flamethrower, CL-40).
2. The M60 trades raw TTK for uptime. 100 rounds means you never reload mid-fight, which wins objective chokepoints even when its per-target TTK is the worst of the three.
3. The M11’s advantage shrinks with distance. Its damage drops off fast, so the paper 0.47s against Lights only exists inside your own face range.

Season 6 additions

Three newer guns are worth tracking even without locked-in damage values, because their magazines define how you use them:

• ARN-220 (Light): a 60-round assault rifle — an ammo-pool outlier in a class used to 20–30 round mags.
• CB-01 Repeater (Medium): an 8-round lever-action that rewards deliberate, paced shots.
• M134 Minigun (Heavy): a 250-round spin-up monster; the windup is the whole weakness.

Community consensus currently rates the AKM and CL-40 at the top for Medium, the M11 and LH1 for Light, and the Lewis gun / MGL-32 for Heavy — but tier lists rotate every patch, so check the current meta page below before committing.

How to use this chart

• Pick by your build first, then by engagement range. You cannot equip an M11 on a Medium, so compare only within your class.
• Compare TTK against the health pool you actually fight. Contested objectives mix all three classes; open rotations favor the pool most players run.
• Treat paper TTK as a ceiling. Range falloff, first-shot recoil and reload windows all stretch it; the chart is the best case, not the average case.
• Re-verify after season patches. Damage and RPM values here reflect community tables from late Season 6; weapons get retuned constantly.
