Focus Fire
| Focus Fire | |
|---|---|
| Class | Weapon Mod |
Focus Fire is a mod for assault rifles, submachine guns and light machine guns that tightens hip fire. Bullets fired without aiming stay closer to the crosshair. In return, the gun's effective range drops. It suits a close range style that sprays from the hip instead of aiming down sights. Focus Fire is available from the early game, since weapon vendors can stock its lower tiers.
Effect
Focus Fire lowers bullet spread from hip fire. The reduction is 20% at Tier 1 and grows by 5% per tier to 40% at Tier 5.
The drawback is a 30% cut to effective range at every tier.
How to Get Focus Fire Guide
- Check weapon vendors, which sell lower tiers.
- With Phantom Liberty, open airdrops in Dogtown for higher tiers.
- Combine a matching pair at the crafting menu to raise its tier.

Upgrades
Focus Fire comes in Tiers 1 to 5. A matching pair of the same mod and tier can be combined at the crafting menu into one copy a tier higher. A mod can only go on a weapon of the same tier or higher. Once installed in a weapon, the mod stays in that weapon.
Character Builds
Focus Fire suits a build that fires from the hip at close range. Spray And Pray in the Reflexes tree lowers the Stamina cost of hip fire with assault rifles and submachine guns. Bullet Ballet in the Body tree cuts bullet spread while moving with light machine guns, heavy machine guns and shotguns.
Big Mag is another mod for the same weapon classes. It raises magazine capacity, so V can fire from the hip for longer before a reload.
