Dispersion Guide - 40mm and Grenades
Dispersion Guide
Most of gunrox players uses 40mm or grenades , and even Rockets. And the ones that dont are missing one of the key tactic elements of this game. I am writing these tips in order to help everyone understand well what dispersion really is , how to avoid hitting your self or allies when shooting and bring to maximum the chance that you will hit your enemy even with hard shots or when blinded. PART 1 - what is dispersion ? Dispersion means that if you aim at a certain square on the map your shot could be diverted to X number of squres from the square that you have aimed to as if you would aim each of these squeres !! X - marks the dispersion value , it is usually 1 for most 40mm and grenades. For example if you aim at 20:20 and you have 1 dispersion then the dispersion will make 1 out of 9 chance that you will really hit 20:20 square. The actuall shot could be diverted to each of these other sqaures: 21:19 , 21,20 , 21,21 20:19 , , 20,21 19:19 , 19:20 , 19:21 The key factor here is that the shot is diverted before shooting and not after for example you aim 20:20 and by 1 out of 9 chance the dispersion diverted your shot to 20:21 ==> this means that in fact you are shooting 20:21 and not 20:20 !! note that when you are blinded dispersion increases but there is no reason to avoid every shot Just because of this. it only means that you need to treat the shots with more attention and be extra carefull when obstacles near the area you want to shoot from. Part 2 - Open feild lets Assume that enemy stands in 20:20 position and absolutly no obstacles between you and your enemy. 
If there are no obstacles at all and you are shooting 40mm or grenades then for the following dispersion values this is where you should aim. 1 dispersion: 21:19 , 21,20 , 21,21 20:19 , 20:20 , 20,21 19:19 , 19:20 , 19:21 these 9 spaces will end with a sure 100% hit. if you cant reach them. then try to shoot 2 spaces away but not in diagonal! a GOOD place to aim shot will be 20:22 , 20:18 , 18:20 , 22:20 => 7 out of 9 shots will hit - 77% a BAD place to aim shot will be 4 diagonals of 2 spaces 18:18,18:22,22:18,22:22 => 4 out of 9 shots will hit - 44% if you must shoot from 3 spaces then aim shot to 20:17 , 20:23 , 17:20 , 23:20 => 4 out of 9 shots will hit - 44% 2 dispersion: This state will probably when blinded or when shooting Rockets. The principle here is pretty much the same Aim 20:20 and you will hit i with 100% other GOOD positions to aim: 19:20,20:19,21:20,20:21 => 21 out of 25 shots will hit - 84% 3 dispersion: Aim 20:20 and you will hit 25 out of 49 shots - 51% "so why are we afraid of dispersion ?!?!?" When the enemy is open , even when you are blinded he is still in trouble! A good advice is to take just 1 ot 2 perks for blind resist. make sure That when you are blinded , your dispersion goes down to max value of 2 and not 3 or more!

Part 3 - Obstacles.
This is where we seperate the PROS from the NOOBS. A PRO will almost NEVER hit himself even when blinded, and will only rarely miss! a NOOB or unexperienced player will shoot and pray for 2 things: 1. Hit enemy 2. Dont hit self or allies. Well guys there is no need to pray. All you need is to read carefully and follow my instructions. As most of you figured shooting with high dispersion (2 or more) when obstacles are found near you/Between you and your Enemy is NOT recommended. I will Describe some scenarios where you will need to shoot your enemy, some shots are easy , some are hard , and some very hard. Surrounding Rule: The number #1 rule of dispersion: always check surrounding squeares before shooting! This means that If i want to aim 20:20 and have 1 dispersion, I will move my mouse to each of the 8 squares around 20:20 to see if the shot will get interrupted by an obstacle. so we want to check 2 things about this rule. 1) There is a straight line of fire to each of the 9 squares (include middle square aimed to) 2) Each of the squares or at least most of them will be on the enemy Kill zone. meaning it will hit him.

Scenario 1:
Imagine that you stand in 22:21 and enemy is in 16:19. There is an obstacle , lets take a wall for example: 21:20 ------ 21:23 21:20 ------ 16:20 
You are shooting with 1 dispersion. The best way to hit will be to move 2 spaces to 22:19 or 23:19 and Aim at 16:18. if we will check the Surrounding Zone then we will see that no matter where the shoot will move 1 space... we will still hit! and never hit ourselfs. this is optimal! NOOB: but why not shoot 16:19 if the enemy is standing there ? Answer: simple, because if we want to shoot 16:19 then 3 out of 9 squares of the Surrounding Zone will cause us miss the enemy and hit ourselfs. This will happen if we will be unlucky (33%) and the shot will be diverted into 15:20,16:20 or 17:20.

Scenario 2:
Imagine that you stand in 18:16 and enemy is in 20:23. There is an obstacle , lets take a wall for example: 16:21 ------ 23:21 
Some players think that with 0 dispersion this shot is possible otherwise you need luck. This is not true , luck has nothing to do with it. The best way to hit will be to move 2 spaces to 20:17 no matter where you were before 20:17 is the best place to shoot from and i will explain why: We will aim as far as we can at a straight line knowing that we will hit the wall but aiming so we will hit 20:21 (part of the wall that will cause a hit). if our range is 9 maximum (for milkors and 40mm) we would want to shoot 20:26 position. It is obvious that since you are standing 4 squares away from the wall that you cant hit your self with the shot!. as we can see from the picture all of the Surrounding zone is covered, the red lines indicate where the shoot will go (if something is in the red line way, the shot will explode on it , in our case the wall part 20:21 is always in the way). since the shoot will 100% hit 20:21 and cause a hit to the enemy. * i might be wrong here, and hit will be 77%. Scenario 3: This is not a common scenario but its a hard shot , and sometimes this game forces you to shoot shots that you dont like. The main concern is first not to hit youself at any case , and second to hit your enemy with the highest percentage. Imagine that you stand in 22:21 or any other sqaure in that aread and enemy is in 16:19. There are 2 obstacles , lets take a walls for example: 16:20 ------ 21:20 , 21:20 ---- 21:23 16:18------- 19:18 , 19:16 ---- 19:18 This looks like the Enemy is in a great advenatage if you have only 1 dispersion weapons as Greandes or Milkors (without the 0 dispersion skill). This shot is a hard shot... many players that will try it will hit themselfs and most of the players will not even try to shoot. But its defently a possible shot that can be made without hitting your self and about 33% (or more...) to hit your enemy. 
Moving to 23:19 or 24:19 and aiming at 18:18 is the best thing you can do in this situation. if we would check the Surroinding zone we will see the all 6 out of 9 blocked shots will hit the wall at 19:18 and we will not take any damage. 3 out of 9 shots will hit 17:19 , 18:19 , 19:19 ==> the enemy takes damage and you dont! . 3 out of 9 shots will hit , its better then not attack at all.
