Aiming at the head the entire time you're battling an opponent decreases your chances of landing all your shots because the head has the least amount of surface area to land shots.

In order to increase your chances in fully landing all your shots you should aim where the most surface area is displayed, and that is the center chest area(waist to shoulders). The 2nd and 3rd bullet will stay within your reticle but won't be exactly where you aim. Your first bullet is the most accurate, the 2nd and 3rd are not. So, why is this important? It's important because the spread of the BR is designed to have random deviations within the burst.

There is no head shot multiplier like in most FPS games UNTIL the shields are popped(depleted). You can hit them with 4 full bursts to the head to kill them, or you can hit them with 3 full bursts to their chest( hell shoot them in the toe for all I care), and 1 full burst to the head to kill them. It doesn't matter how many times you hit someone in the head with the Battle Rifle(BR). New players at least never played this game, but veteran OG ' Well I was a level 50 in lone wolves so I know the game' also didn't believe me. Some veteran players couldn't believe it(down right refused) and I had to literally drag them into a custom lobby to prove the point. I can't believe how many people I talked to yesterday in lobbies where they didn't understand how damage is applied in gameplay.
