Arena Breakout Ammo Tier List: T4 566 Pen Rules Lockdown 2025
Buffget
2025/12/22
Arena Breakout ammo tiers run from S (T6 Level 6) down to F (T1 unarmored). For Lockdown, stick to T4 minimum against Level 5+ threats. That's 566.4 pen on T4 versus T3's measly 424.8—a 31% survival edge in FAL builds. Hit Level 12 prep, drop 20K Koen entry for Farm/Valley/Armory raids.
Introduction to Arena Breakout Ammo Tiers
What Are Ammo Tiers?
T1? Straight unarmored fodder. T3 handles Level 3-4 with 424.8 pen and 679.68 dmg on AP6.3. T4 steps up to Level 5 at 566.4 pen, 665.52 dmg via 7N31. T5-T6? Level 6 beasts like 64 pen SJ16 AP.
Post-2025 overhaul nerfed high tiers' dmg by 15-25%, but pen held strong—T4 became meta king. Think 5.45x39mm AP at 41 pen (solid T4) or 5.56x45mm M995's 52 pen punch.
How to use the chart? Filter by caliber. Hover for pen/dmg versus armor. Always stock AP over HP or FMJ—penetration wins raids.
Why Lockdown Zone Demands High Tiers
Lockdown hits at Level 12, 100K Koen prep, 20K entry fee. Enemies? Level 5+ swarming Farm/Valley/Armory. T4 shines against Level 5; T3 body shots flop hard.
Prime loot spots: Motel in Farm, Beach Villa in Valley, Ammo Dump in Armory. That 31% PvP survival boost with T4 FAL? Game-changer. Save T6 for Doss Anthony boss melts.
Quick tips: Scout their armor first. Load T4+ into your 250K-500K builds. Slap on a DTK-1 compensator for control.

Full Arena Breakout Ammo Tier List S to F
S-Tier: Godlike Penetrators
T6 SJ16 AP: 94 dmg, 64 pen. One-shots Level 6 at 190m. .338mm AP/FMJ clocks 54 pen too.
Valley long-range elites? This is your essential. Mosin-Nagant or SJ16 runs 500K-1M Koens at 26 RPM. Equip 6x+ scopes. Headshot bosses. Stock heavy for Armory extracts.
A-Tier: Lockdown Essentials
T4 7N31: 566.4 pen, 665.52 dmg—perfect for Level 5. T5 P90 rips at 1000 RPM.
FAL with T4? 630 RPM, 135K-350K Koens, that 31% survival bump. MPX T4 hits 850 RPM for 485K Koens. Match to map—like T4 FAL in Valley. Gunsmith those grips and muzzles. Test against Level 5 on the chart.
B-Tier: Backup Only
T3 AP6.3: 424.8 pen for Level 3-4. MPX at 88K Koens, AK-74N 145K-200K. 12x70mm Flechette? 33 pen—dodge armored foes.
Pre-Lockdown viable. Run in Normal modes. Sell off low-tier junk. Push to T4 ASAP.
C-F Tiers: Avoid in Endgame
T1-T2 unarmored trash. 5.45x39mm HP at 15 pen? Ricochet city below armor match. Scout. Swap to AP. Pen first, dmg second.
Why Level 4 Ammo is the Lockdown Minimum
Penetration Stats Breakdown

Check pierce chance. Load into 250K builds. Heal after those pens land.

Ricochet Risks with Lower Tiers
T3 under Level 5? 50-80% dmg slash. Scout gear always. Post-nerf, T4's viability spiked—smart move.
