Wingman
High-powered revolver.
Wingman stats
EA changed Rate of fire, Head damage, Leg damage in the patch of 5 May 2025 without publishing the new value, so those numbers are out of date until they do.
Shots to kill
Shots needed to down a legend through each Legend Armor level, at 45 body damage per shot. Every legend has 100 health with the armour on top — since February 2024 that armour is inherent and levels up on EVO points rather than being looted as a body shield.
| Legend Armor | Total HP | Body shots | Head shots |
|---|---|---|---|
| No armour | 100 | 3 | — |
| Level 1 | 150 | 4 | — |
| Level 2 | 175 | 4 | — |
| Level 3 | 200 | 5 | — |
| Level 4 | 225 | 5 | — |
Counts assume every shot lands on the same body part with no damage falloff and no attachments fitted. Compare weapons in the damage calculator.
