Hey guys yesterday i unlocked bayonet for my kar98, i checked whats next upgrade and it shows the next upgrade is at level 25 and it is: removes sight hood. But how do you understand at level 25? My weapon is already 27 level? Maybe i understood it wrong, maybe it means that i will unlock sight hood after another 25levels? I really dont understand how does it work :\

This is a bug in the game, you see that it is required LV25 but but is required LV50.
And YES you will unlick it after another 25LV.

Yes it unlocks at level 50. The text just doesn't update to signify that.

Personally is better aim for me with this piece of metal.

It does take a bit of time to get used to, especially if you play both teams and thus sometimes play with the Mosin Nagant that does have a hood, but I found that eventually I got the hang of it and perhaps even had a bit better performance with the unhooded Kar.

I find it better with the hood because at typical engagement range (~100m) the edge of the hood is pretty much exactly the distance you need to lead a moving, non-sprinting target. Of course your mileage may vary because the amount you have to lead by is a ping-lottery and rarely the same twice

Weapon unlocks are very buggy right now. My kar is level ~23 and already has a bayonet somehow. Same was for my mosin all levels pre-25 as well.

@SnowyOak
Did you already own RO:Ost and/or did you buy the DDE version of RO2? I don't remember which, but one of those options gave you the bayo by default.

/doh!
You're exactly right, I have the DDE version and forgot all about those unlocks. Still odd that it shows my bayonet as a level 25 unlock when I already have it. I guess there is no graphic to replace it.
