SULFUR Game Bullet Weight Explained

Which oils increase Bullet Weight?

You add Bullet Weight through oils labeled Bullet Drop or Bullet Weight in the table below. These oils trade a heavier trajectory for other effects, so check your oil's entire row.

Heavy Oil has conflicting Bullet Drop notation: ×10 and +10. Medicine Ball Oil lists its Bullet Drop as +30x; the table preserves that notation. These values describe stat changes, rather than measured distances your bullets fall. You cannot read a multiplier as a fixed drop distance.

For other effects and sellers, check the SULFUR oil table.

Which Muzzle Velocity oils offset Bullet Weight?

You can counter Bullet Weight with the Muzzle Velocity oils below. Muzzle Velocity increases the distance your bullet travels before gravity, Bullet Weight, and Drag affect it.

All these Muzzle Velocity oils avoid increasing durability loss, but several carry another penalty. Anabolic Oil reduces Max Durability, while Spider Oil reduces Bullet Size and Bullet Speed. Gust Oil reduces Damage by a percentage; Optimum Oil reduces it by a flat amount. You should compare those penalties alongside the Muzzle Velocity increase.

A Muzzle Velocity percentage does not provide a confirmed cancellation ratio for a Bullet Weight multiplier. You still need to assess the combined trajectory rather than treating different stat labels as interchangeable.

Why do your bullets fall and slow down?

Bullet Weight bends your shots downward and reduces speed independently of a separate Bullet Speed penalty. If your oil has both penalties, you need to account for both effects. Big Oil, for example, combines Bullet Drop ×20 with Bullet Speed -20%.

More Drag works differently: your bullets gradually lose speed during flight. They fall to the ground when their speed reaches zero. You should distinguish that gradual slowdown from added Bullet Weight when checking your weapon's oils.

Muzzle Velocity also affects the range of thrower enhancements, including scroll of Flame Thrower. For Railgun projectiles such as scroll of Holy Fire, it increases range when you add a Bullet Weight oil. Compare your base gun in the SULFUR weapons guide before judging its modified behavior.

How should you fix a weapon with too much drop?

You can add Muzzle Velocity to counter the drop, or reconsider the oils creating it. Start by matching your applied oil names against the two tables. Look for Bullet Speed penalties as well as Bullet Drop, especially if your shots also feel slow.

Choose a Muzzle Velocity oil whose other effects suit your weapon. A larger Muzzle Velocity increase can come with a durability, damage, recoil, or handling trade-off. Compare the best oils when choosing which benefits you want to preserve.

Heavy drop can make medium-range and longer-range weapons ineffective. If you want that weapon for distance, prioritize countering its trajectory penalty. For a different approach, consider whether your gun belongs in one of your close-range weapon builds.

Can Bullet Weight help a close-range build?

You can use Bullet Drop with Penetration and Bouncing to send grounded shots skipping toward groups. This gives the downward arc a purpose on short-range weapons. You do not need to treat every drop effect as an automatic reason to abandon an oil.

Your shots penetrate eligible surfaces first, until they reach their penetration limit. They bounce from hard surfaces, including unbreakable objects and level geometry. Other surfaces allow bouncing once your shot exhausts its available penetrations. The result depends on the combination of drop, penetration, and bouncing you give your weapon.
