Bucky

Shotguns850 creds43 skins

On the Bucky, it takes 3 headshots to kill even without shields, and 9 body shots kill through a heavy shield.

Shots to kill and time to kill

Shields absorb damage one-for-one, so a light shield puts an opponent on 125 effective health and a heavy shield on 150. Time to kill measures from the first bullet landing to the last, which is why a one-shot kill reads 0.00s.

Heavy shield	5	3.64s	9	7.27s	11

Between 0 and 8 metres nothing kills in one shot, shielded or not — 34 to the head is short of the 150 a heavy shield leaves you needing. Body shots take 9 through a heavy shield at this range.

Between 12 and 50 metres nothing kills in one shot, shielded or not — 18 to the head is short of the 150 a heavy shield leaves you needing. Body shots take 17 through a heavy shield at this range.

The Bucky loses damage past 8m. That drop is what decides whether a fight at range still ends in one shot, so it matters far more than the raw damage number.

What a Bucky buy actually costs

The Bucky is 850 credits on its own, but nobody buys a gun on its own. Adding armour is what turns it into a real loadout, and these are the shield prices straight from the buy menu.

Loadout	Shield	Total
Bucky + Light ArmorAbsorbs 66% of total damage taken. Breaks after it has absorbed 25 damage.	400	1,250
Bucky + Regen ShieldAbsorbs 100% of total damage taken. Regenerates after it has absorbed damage. Has a total regeneration pool of 50.	650	1,500
Bucky + Heavy ArmorAbsorbs 66% of total damage taken. Breaks after it has absorbed 50 damage.	1,000	1,850

Abilities are on top of these figures and vary by agent, so treat the totals as the floor for a full buy rather than the final number. Heavy armour is what the kill tables above assume — it is the difference between 100 effective health and 150.

How it compares to the other Shotguns

All 2 Shotguns side by side, at point-blank range. The Bucky row is highlighted. Damage falls off with distance on most guns, so these are the best-case numbers — the per-range tables above are the full picture.

Weapon	Cost	Head	Body	Fire rate	Mag	Body shots to kill
Judge	1,850	34	17	3.5	5	9
Bucky	850	34	17	1.1	5	9

Body shots to kill assumes a heavy shield, which puts an opponent on 150 effective health. Cost is in credits from the buy menu.

Bucky vs Judge

Neither the Bucky nor the Judge kills a heavy-shielded opponent with one headshot, so the comparison comes down to fire rate and cost: 1.1 rounds per second at 850 credits against 3.5 at 1,850.

All 43 Bucky skins

Skins are purely cosmetic — none of them change the numbers above. Higher content tiers add upgrade levels, colour variants and effects rather than any advantage.

Deluxe	12	1,275 VP
Premium	10	1,775 VP
Exclusive	2	—

Standard single-skin prices for each tier. Most Bucky skins are sold inside a bundle rather than on their own, and bundle pricing sits below the sum of its parts — so treat these as the ceiling, not the receipt.
