KF2 Weapons Catalog: Damage, Prices and Ammo (2018)

A Spanish-language Steam guide (last updated June 2018) that summarizes every Killing Floor 2 weapon of that time: primaries, sidearms, grenades, tools and useful combinations. The author says it is a short digest of the Tripwire wiki with a few personal notes. The tables below translate the main numbers (damage per bullet or pellet, price, magazine and reserve ammo); values reflect the game version of the guide and have since been rebalanced, so use them for orientation only. For the modern view see weapons economy and the weapon upgrade system.

Grenades

Grenade	Class	Damage	Radius	Notes
Dynamite	Demolitionist	300	4 m	Explodes on contact or after 3 s
Flashbang (stun grenade)	SWAT	125	7 m	Stuns big ZEDs, kills very weak ones
Frag grenade	Support	200	9 m	2 s fuse
HE grenade	Commando	300	6.5 m	1 s fuse, one big blast
EMP grenade	Berserker	25	7 m	Stuns ZEDs; time depends on distance
Freeze grenade	Survivalist	25	6 m	Freezes Scrakes and Fleshpounds before they rage
Medical grenade	Medic	50 (heal)	-	Covers an area to heal teammates and hurt ZEDs
Molotov	Firebug	60	5 m	Creates 5 flames on the ground
Nail bomb	Gunslinger	100	10 m	10 fragments of 35, bounce twice
C4	Demolitionist	820	4 m	Remote detonation

Tools

• Kevlar vest: three integrity levels: high (over 75 points) absorbs 75 percent of damage, medium (50 to 75) absorbs 65 percent, low (under 50) absorbs 55 percent.
• Syringe: every class has one. Healing yourself takes 15 seconds to recharge, healing a teammate only 7.5 seconds, so heal each other when there is no medic.
• Welder: doors save and bury you; avoid welding without need. Keep the welder in your inventory (the option in settings) to save about a second, which can preserve the door.

Upgrades by tier

Weapons are grouped by tier: Tier 1 starting weapons (9mm, Varmint), Tier 2 at 750 or less, Tier 3 at 1100, Tier 4 at 1500, Tier 5 the M99 .50. A weapon can be upgraded as many times as tiers remain up to Tier 5, for example a Tier 1 weapon up to five times, and the M99 cannot be upgraded. Each upgrade increases weight slightly.

Combos

The guide ends with ideas for combinations of weapons. Perks with light weapons like SWAT and Gunslinger can carry extra items, for example P90 plus Heckler plus C4 against all targets, or MP7 plus dual 9mm to save money.
