Today, the editor brings you an introduction to how the seven-day world ricochet works. In fact, ricochet is a very critical weapon effect in the Seven Day World, with its core being that after a bullet hits a target, it will ricochet to other enemies within a 10-meter radius, causing 50% secondary damage. This mechanism can achieve the effect of multiple strikes with one bullet through a chain reaction when facing dense clusters of mutants. Below, the editor will take new players to delve deeper into this mechanism.

The activation of the ricochet effect depends on specific modules, mainly obtained by defeating Shadow Hounds (with a chance to drop on the first master difficulty clear) or participating in the Otherworld Arsenal lottery. It's recommended to form a three-person team to challenge the Shadow Hound, with a tank carrying thorny pants to attract hate, and two DPS using corrosion and blue flame to continuously attack the weak points of the tentacles. After obtaining the module, prioritize equipping it on submachine guns or shotguns. The editor highly recommends the MP5 Roar Bear's ricochet effect, which can cover a 10-meter radius, and with the high-frequency bullet module, the number of ricochets can be increased to 3. Moreover, the ricochet damage is affected by the original attack power, and weapons with higher base attack (× speed) benefit more.

Ricochet performs outstandingly in two types of scenarios: one is indoor dungeons like the Shadow Stronghold, utilizing walls for multiple bounces; the other is against summoning-type bosses like Rosetta, quickly clearing split minions. It's recommended to pair with Frost Vortex or Surge effects - the former creates a deceleration zone to limit enemy movement, while the latter triggers group paralysis through chained electric shocks. For example, using Frost Vortex + Ricochet, first use a grenade to create an icy area, then use the ricochet weapon to trigger area damage, greatly improving the efficiency of clearing monsters. In team battles, ricochet can also assist in stacking Hunter Marks, providing an 8% group damage boost to teammates.

The enhancement of the ricochet module requires consuming Cube Resonators. It's suggested to first upgrade to Lv.3 to unlock the +2m ricochet range feature, then invest in Critical Chain to increase the trigger rate of secondary damage. When resources are scarce, the ricochet can be indirectly triggered through automated machine gun turrets, whose attacks will inherit the player's current weapon's ricochet effect, suitable for drawing fire or stacking buffs.

The ricochet mechanism can be said to be a very critical module in the game. Combining the module + weapon + environment can even produce multiple effects. Mastering the refraction laws of bullet trajectories can greatly improve the efficiency of group combat. Players need to combine weapon characteristics and terrain features to significantly increase their combat power.
