Stats
- Damage: 65
- Rate of Fire: 65
- Recoil: High
From the stats above we can see that the RPD can kill an enemy in 2 shots from close to long-range. It is an absolute beast of an LMG. Steady damage combined with a steady fire rate makes the RPD the best LMG in the game.
Best Attachments
The best attachments for the RPD are the Foregrip, Fast Mags and Quickdraw. The Foregrip will tighten the recoil, Fast Mags will negate the reload speed and Quickdraw will have you pulling your weapon faster. We know LMGs can be slow to use.
Therefore, any attachments that speed up the weapon are a bonus.
We would also recommend an optic of your choice.
