Interesting that you put the Monolith 2.0 into A tier and not S, because it's:
1) A direct (and significant) upgrade of the A-tier Shakal, with a 60-rounder, proper point fire, and a GL
2) One of the two guns in the entire game that can mount a GL and have more than 30 rounds in the mag, the other one being Storm
💯 He doesn't even mention that it takes the fancy grenade launcher. It's objectively one of the best guns in the game for all-round use. Also British and furry, opinion invalidated.
@@alexandernikitin5175Amen.
Monolith 2.0 is a beast, I guess Acog just turns him off.. I disliked it too at first, but it is imo a S tier weapon too.
Truuuuuu @@alexandernikitin5175
@@alexandernikitin5175 The problem with the GL is precisely that it's "fancy" (costly), and the ACOG is just horrible + it worsens the poor accuracy issue.
AN-94 gets a slightly better scope, a more cost efficient GL, better accuracy, and the hyperburst.
Those last two features negates the downside of not having a 60 round mag, unless you're spraying in CQC, but if you do then the AEK is way better because of it's firerate and precision, the groza too with a firerate still under the AEK but with a 60 round mag.
RD74U has one major bonus that I dont see talked about a lot, there is several fire rate upgrades to the point that it can push 1100RPM+. Sure the mag is only 30 but being able to dump 30 HP rounds instantly in high tier mutants is a huge bonus, also you can mag dump a exo stalker with even just FMJ rounds and it will smoke them. Its basically the AEK but with MORE fire rate and less recoil
interesting.. I have an rd74u and will repair it to test it out
@@trung3457 you do have to upgrade it as well though
@@unyelemaneasy if you hoard everything like me :D
@@roxas9285 I know it's been months, but I share this same burden brother
Shakal and Monolith 2.0 should be in S-tier, but it's nice to see RPK got the recognition it deserves. Overall 545 has some really nice guns
Orange AK-74 can take grenade launcher.
most AK's except the short ones can, most just have it locked off bye a mod
No it can not unless you're talking about the ak-74N
Orange AK-74 can indeed take grenade launcher. Unless something was changed in the last 4 months.
@@officedullard8722 avec une amélioration, il est aujourd'hui bien possible de fixer un lance grenade sur le AK74 de base.
After Tarkov its funny to see a game where 5.45 isnt completely useless
I found this list wildly inconsistent. What makes a gun S-Tier? I don't think that's elaborated on very much. The AK74 PMC gets S-Tier with the only description of it having a 45 round mag? You cant put a grenade launcher on it either. The 74M, 74 are extremely similar but in different tiers too without much detail.
His highest criteria is scope selection
General characteristics
Mag size
GL
@@huntermad5668 Also, the AK74 PMC and the AK12 Monolith are extremely similar too, same scope selection, general characteristics, mag size, both no GL, yet one is S tier, one is A tier...
@@PlatinumSan Accuracy and recoil on the AK12 monolith are worse.
RPK my beloved. Getting it from military guys as loner skips all the grind
I still quite like the 74M and AKS74U for the looks, just iconic in the series too. I could be having an easier time using the newer super upgraded ones, but the late soviet era stuff just really feels right 😁
Super minor crit, but when you're showing off some weapons, it feels like most of the footage is a scoped in view that could have been from any weapon. I get playing the game semi-decently calls for aimed fire when possible, but if you're getting footage for a gun it might make more sense/make each little section on each gun feel more distinct if we saw more of the gun itself, I feel. Really minor point though. I appreciate your vids 🙂
My first rifle was an AEK before I upgraded to an AK-12, which became my main rifle for most of my midgame. Didn't really dabble much with the upgrade kits, as I found them to be a bit overbuilt. While I like being able to put on scopes and such, all the gizmos and big mags was a bit much. :)
If I was made to pick one, and only one gun to play this game, like, start to finish, a "one to rule them all" type of gun, my choice would be the upgraded version of the AK-12 Monolith, which is currently called "Monolith's Light". When you weight its pros and cons, you'll find much more pros than cons.
Let's start with the cons:
- Limited to ACOG, as the optical sight choice. Sadly, at least IMO, the ACOG is the worst magnified optical sight in this game. It's accuracy sux, but being the worst doesn't mean it is unuseable, you just have to deal with it.
- The weapon's inherently accuracy isn't also that good. It's not bad, if you compare it with other 5.45x39 guns, to be honest, it is probably one of the best 5.45x39 guns in the game, in terms of accuracy, but it will not be able to hold a candle to most of the 5.56x45 guns. But, as I said before, not being that good doesn't mean it is unuseable, you just have to deal with it.
And that's it for cons, IMO.
Now to the pros:
- Because it's a C tier gun, it is easy and cheap to find, repair and maintain.
- The ammo is also easy to find/craft and cheap to buy.
- All of it's ammo types are good, not the best, but good. HP ammo is quite good for mutants. FMJ ammo is fairly good for light to medium armored stalkers and the AP ammo is OK to deal with heavily armored targets.
- The 60 round magazine is a great thing to have on that "Oh sh*t! I'm f*cked!" moments. Considering how the human Ai in this game reacts to your actions, and how the mutants behave while in combat, not having to reload so often makes a good difference.
- It's fire rate is OK, not so fast to make you waste ammo unnecessarily, but also not so slow to make your TTK garbage.
- It comes with an integrated grenade launcher, one of the few in the game that let you use the GL + supressor + optical sight and still be able to precisely aim the grenade shot.
- It comes with an integrated laser sight. Not all guns in this game have this, and this attachment is something extremely useful to have at your disposal, always, at any given situation.
- The gun is fairly lightweight, and it's ammo is also lightweight, which is always a good thing.
- The gun looks cool as f*ck!!!!!
- I'm a bit uncertain if this can be considered a pro, but the gun's recoil is quite manageable. It's not a smooth ride like the Howa Type 20, but it is also not like a kicking mule (a.k.a L85).
See? This gun deserves to be S tier. If there was one with the SpecterDR scope, that babe would be SS tier. Why not the Leupold? Because its accuracy isn't well suited for that magnifaction range.
It's GL is more costly than the regular GP 25, if you don't mind the sight then AN-94 is two times better just because of the hyperburst, the AN-94 is more accurate, has GP 25, does twice the dmg, is easier/cheaper to obtain and it's still a C tier gun.
Yes you lose the extended mag and the silencer but it's so efficient (because of accuracy+hyperburst) that you can spare those.
I'd rather spend two rounds in "one shot" on the target rather than two rounds in two shots with one missing the target, and since you're talking about recoil... Hyperburst.
@@aiugiamos3057 Yeah, the GL attachment for the AK-12 is indeed expensive as f*ck, but, by the time you get your hands on the AK-12 + reputation level needed to unlock the upgrade kit, you, in theory, should already be more than enough able to aford these costs.
I'm not saying that the AN-94 is a bad choice, but it has a few "cons" that make me put the AK-12 above it in the tier list.
- Losing the 60 round mag is a pretty substantial downside, IMO. As I said before, the higher capacity mag shines on those "I'm f*cked up moments", and these moments, no matter how much of a skilled player you are, will always happen. Just an example: In my most recent playthrough, I got ambushed by an UNISG "de*th squad", and got completely wrecked by them cuz the moment I stoped to reload (cuz I couldn't kill all of those heavily armored f*ckers with just one 30rd mag, and I was using a S-tier 556 gun, the Howa Type 20), they rushed to my position and bagged me.
- The optical sights compatibility of the AN-94 is a bit lacking. Well, let me explaint it better.... the PSO-1 is not a bad one, but the problem resides on it's close range option. You can still use the iron sight, with a PSO1, but the visibility is extremely limited. On the AK-12 you have the laser, which make it possible to easily fire from the hip, and you also have that "tacticool mode" of ADS with the laser, both modes giving you 100% field of view all the time.
- Not being able to silently dispatch a target is another downside, IMO. For example, when raiding Limansk, with the AK-12, I can stealthily dispatch all enemies from the start of the map untill the construction site no problem.
- The GP30 grenade is expensive and rarer to find, but you can easily craft it using the other two types, so, this isn't a problem at all.
There's actually 2 AK12's in GAMMA. There's the 2012 prototype version, and the 2016 production version. They're both just listed as AK12 but their descriptions and models are different. IIRC the 2012 version can't take the UBGL. Feel like you heavily slept on the 2016 AK12 too. None of the guns in S tier can take a UBGL other than the Groza Storm. AK12 is a pretty easy to get early game weapon with great sight options and a UBGL.
Also re 9.39 can use same gl like ak 12/ monolith
105 shakal full upgrade is like : Brrrrrrrrr
4:36 Also AK-74U gets a whole 45rnd mag. On top of that, its a "carbine" version of the gun, so it weights less then the gun actual, and is fine without upgrades. Do believe it's weight is like 3.5 kilograms with all the attachments and a full mag, which is astonishingly small for an AR with big firerate, laser and extended mag. AND on top of it, its a 5.45, which can actually deal damage to mutants if using HP rounds.
Perfect allrounded sidearm for a sniper, sitting along autopistols, Veresk and 5.7 SMG's.
it pains me to see the an94 and aek971 on A tier
but its a totally fair placement
in base anomaly they're S tier, in gamma their lack of optics and options make them a solid A, which just shows how good they are since most other AK's with their attachments would get put in B,
AN-94 is S tier in my heart, the hyperburst is just insane.
All right, Groza Storm is S tier...I can sleep easily.
Nice list. Anything that has adjustable + changeable scope options and a grenade launcher, are instantly higher tier than others.
Always love my RPK16 - especially when I round the corner and a squad of Sin were waiting. Managed to kill them all JUST when I ran out of ammo in the magazine. The 60 rounders shouldn't be underestimated. Good at any range too with the right sights. I have used it over a more powerful gun like ash12 just because I feel like it just works no matter what I am doing.
The lack of grenade launcher is sad, but that is what my 5.56 weapons are for. And it also says it has hyperburst but doesn't look like it works as of now.
Damn that A tier is STACKED. Can't go wrong with 5.45.
Monolith’s light can take a vog 30 nade launcher
For me, the Ak74su tactical should have at least the same ranking as the shakal. it basically does the same job as the shakal just on a buget (not needing a 100k upgrade kit) you can mod it to have accuracy on par with the shakal as well as take flatness which would make it better for ranges up to ~100m. it can take some combo scopes (single zoom) with a red dot if you don't like the laser (i like laser more than 45° red dots). my personal goto 5.45x39 are either the Ak74su tactical (as secondary against mutants and close quater engagements with stalkers) or the AN-94 (my personal placement is S tier, if it had better scope selection it would be SS-tier XD), haven't had much chance to play with the 5.45x39 groza, will check it out.
Lol,exactly what Im looking for,thank you
Ak-74M pmc my beloved
Used 5,45 in the original trilogy a lot
not much in Gamma/EfP when you can just dismantle ammo for western toys...
good video, just want to point out that the "PMC" is an AK-74 variant, not AK-74M
Prediction: The Swamp Thing will also go into A-Tier because it forces you to use a sight you personally don’t like.
ak-74 with supressor looks better than most of tacticool nato weapons, aesthetics of soviet weapons are amazing
I like western weapon models, but AK12 was one of the best in the games b4 Anomally/ Gamma.
While having a high powered scope helps a lot, I never could picture using a sniper scope on an Assault Rifle. Much less on a carbine like the 74u. Its just not what its for xd
meet tarkov player 😂
Tbh I dont play tarkov but having a cqbss mounted is way better since you still can use the canted sight to do close quarter combat
And for big caliber rifles like the rd47, sr25, sa58.. you can even 1 or 2 shot exos at a distance, I beat invictus mode twice and I really enjoy the shotgun-rifle combo😅 no sniper rifle haha
@@trung3457Sure Id scope an sr25. Its an DMR.
Correct me if I'm wrong, AK-47 "Venom" used to be "Beard"? I wish they revert it's sprinting animations to old animations that are on basic AK-74, new ones are awful. Ah, we can't have it all...
i agree, there is a work around however, if you lower your weapon and then sprint you revert back to the normal ak-74 running animation.
Wait wasnt monolith ak (kit upgraded) having a unique 30mm grenade launcher? Also i remember it being the only one grenade launcher with red dot sight for aim.
Adding or docking points for mag capacity is a moot point of you're playing EFP instead, because all 5.56 Soviet mags are interchangeable. This means I can use *60* round magazines with my AK-105, orbetter yet, an AK with a grenade launcher
Also can do the same thing with the 7.62 Soviet brother. Having 45 round RPK mags for an AK-Alfa with a variable scope is nutty
The tier list is for gamma tho
Love the video. Thanks for the tips. Just wondering which HD Model mods you use. Thanks.. or if anyone else knows?.. I'm currently using Anomaly HD Models, just seeing which mods are the best for that.
Awsome, Thanks!
Serious question do you have a video of a step by step on how to install Stalker Gamma?
The guide is on the gamma discord
Imo shakal is amazing go to rifle, good looking to, but it pisses me off, that the kits force me to use one, zoomed scope (not a big fan of angle red dot). Ak74su tactical is pretty fun to mess around with, same as unisg rifles.
Nice very helpful
AK74U is more a pdw or a submachine gun in rifle caliber.
I keep trying to trade nimble a groza but he says its the wrong one and wont upgrade it. Anyone know why or how to fix
So next will be 5.56 and 7.62?
What reshade are you using btw?
So 5.56 best rifle pmc svd?
Strangely didn't see AM-17 in the list 🤔
Am-17 is 9x39??
@@roxas9285 AMB-17 is 9x39, AM-17 (without integrated suppressor) is 5.45x39
RPK 16 being S and ak12 mono 2.0 being A doesnt make sense
Why is it when I play any form of Anomaly if I so much as poke my head out half as much as this guy does I get instakilled by three different NPCs at once...
What difficulty does he play on?

@@aweillekevin4201 I don't understand...what is the difference?
maybe you need better helmet/armor?

Specialist 105?
0:37 One of the most pointless reload animations ever! Why ditch the mag?! Why grasp the mag with a reverse grip?! I don't get the appeal! It can't be "rule of cool" because it looks stupid AF! At least you work the charging handle using the proper modern method for a right-hander. A "westpaw" like muhself doesn't need to do that.
1:05 In standard-issue Anomaly, when using an AN-94 with both a GP-25 and a 1P29 "Tulip" scope attached, you could use the grenade launcher toggle key to switch between scope, iron sights, and quadrant sight (in that order: top to bottom, back to front).
1:33 That right there. That's what you could do with the AN-94 with both a GP-25 and a "Tulip" on it.
2:18 Is that a GP-34 or a GP-25 with its quadrant sight on the right instead of the left? Either is fine. Apart from the quadrant sight being on the opposite side, the way your character aims it is similar to 'nilla ShoC with the quadrant set for a high mortar-like angle.
2:32 I wouldn't trade a grenade launcher for anything.
3:30 All standard-length AKs - specifically of the non-Zastava variety (if applicable) - should be able to accept a GP-25, GP-30, or GP-34 by default without any upgrades or modifications. What was the logic behind not allowing a GP-25 on an AK-74? Are they trying to insult us?!
4:24 There's that reverse-grip method of grasping the mag! What's the point of that?!
4:50 Its real-world name, had it gone into production in our timeline, would have been "Groza-2." In that configuration, its full designation would be "OTs-14-2A-04." It being amazing is in keeping with long-standing S.T.A.L.K.E.R. tradition since it was great in 'nilla ShoC. Zoners who were really jonesing for it could buy it from Sid if they were dedicated enough to earn the cash for it early on. In Oblivion Lost, you could go to Army Warehouses before going to Agroprom and simply buy it from Barin. Those versions of it gave the same 20-round mag as the 9x39mm Groza-4 (aka "Groza-9/40"). In standard-issue Anomaly, you can buy the Groza-1 (7.62x39mm over 40mm) from Nimble, but it has terrible handling characteristics.
5:28 That's 10:30 EDT, right?
I've been wrapping collecting bc U can't just play a fucking game 😅 and i think i have all of these and I've not turned off any brain eating technology. Not in here of course but I love the swamp thing variant of the 105 and the venom. Getting bored of the monolith.
